Last week I mostly worked on home improvements and spring cleaning. The yard was a mess of sticks and weeds. I've done a lot of work on the inside of my house and I wanted to do something to the outside. I've decided to hold off on painting for now because I can't decide how to paint it anyway. The outside of my house is mostly garage so I decided that making my garage door cuter would go a long way. I was looking up cute garage doors with windows and that would have cost between $1,000 and $2,000. I decided it was worth trying the vinyl stickers first. I bought the hardware for cheap at Home Depot and Scott put them on. When the stickers arrived in the mail they were the wrong size. I decided to just paint windows on instead. I should have done that in the first place. I already had the tape and paint. Oh well. So I painted the windows on and it looks great. I mean it's not the real deal but I saved $1,000 so I think it's totally worth it. I also had Scott change out our gold door handle and I spray painted our gold house numbers black. I spray painted my turquoise rocking chair gray and bought a wreath and pillow and BOOM the outside of my house has a whole new look. Now all I need is a cute window box on the front of the house. I'm thinking that will make a great mother's day present.
Scott got the job we were hoping for. He starts on the 11th. We are excited. The company seems great and he's excited/nervous. He was especially excited that they didn't want him to start for 2 weeks so he could enjoy a little more freedom and down time. He has been working on his nerd video game you-tube channel after all.
Here are some pictures from Scott's phone and some home improvements.
