Being sick...

Blows! Everything hurts and all I have to do is to sit here any think about the decorating I want to do. But of course I have no money to buy stuff right now. Which is probably a good thing in the long run!

I need to buy a larger log holder to put in the dining room. Thinking of getting something like this

Then I need to eventually find a red couch and love seat combo or a red sectional for under $500. Hoping I can slowly hit the discount stores around here and once I find a good deal I can jump on it ASAP. It's going to be a challenge to find something for that price. On the other hand we have a working couch/love seat combo that is old but it is functional. So I'm trying to be mature and wait...

Plus I want to add some plants here too! I'm going to try hard not to kill them. Hoping they will help with the static electricity and dry air around here.  Here is my idiot proof hardy pet safe list

Zeezee Plant
Snake Plant
Pothos
Spider Plant
Arrowhead Vine
Ponytail Palm
Rubber Tree
Fiddleleaf Fig
Cast-Iron Plant
Jade Plant
Norfolk Island Pine

Looks like ebay might be the cheapest place to get little baby ones. Seeds and I do not have a good track record. I need something with roots to at least give me a fighting chance.

Next I have to find cute little planters to put the pots into! Maybe by 2014 I'll have each room organized like I want...

  1. if you have friends with any of those plants, alot of those can be grown easily from a piece started in water: pothos, jade, spider. The snake plant can be grown if a piece is broken off of the root tube.
