keeping it real wednesday

1. pics from two weeks ago up in chicago. this is the first car we looked at. the outside was super nice, inside was a little worn but still a nice ride. we ended up looking at about 4 cars and i would have had more pictures but they were making fun of me. {ham wished i had gotten more later- ha! serves him right for making fun}

2. my crazy sister and one of her girls came over yesterday to hang out. she brought in all the stuff she bought from the dollar store and burlington coat factory. let me just say WE DO NOT HAVE THE SAME TASTE. and that's said with love.

3. we are planning a trip to ikea- schaumburg tomorrow. kaylee will hopefully be staying with cousin rylie and rylie's grandparents. {my sister's in-laws live with them now which is causing lots of complaints from my sister though it was her idea}

4. i finally finished taking down the wall paper border in one of the bathrooms. both bathrooms should of been done by now... i'm hoping to have before and after pictures soon.

5. one of my classmates died in car crash monday. its our 20th reunion this year. so so so sad to have had this happen. my heart goes out to her family and friends.

6. hamilton came home in a great mood yesterday and i took total advantage of it talking and joking around with him. love moments like these.

7. now that my cars payed off, i have more in repairs than what the car payments were. {new tires, brakes, passenger side window doesn't roll up or down and there's a quarter inch that lets in the winter breeze}

8. mike works for an oil company who made billions and billions of dollars last year yet they got the crappiest raises and bonuses this year. supposedly mike's the only supervisor in the area who got the same bonus as last year yet he is the only supervisor doing 3 other supervisors jobs.

9. having a hard time deciding if hardwood floors would look ok with existing trim or if i should have the floors be the same color as the trim. {trim is not white but wood color}

10. i love fruit smoothies and have been drinking one every morning except yesterday. i had a brownie with frosting.
