what up wednesdays

Just a few things I’ve been up to lately…..

• Practicing with my new fancy camera.  It’s so damn confusing.

Aren’t those flowers adorable? My friend George grows them and brought me a lil boquet.

• TV  wise this past week was meh.  We caught up on Fear the Walking Dead and I must say, now I know why people are bitching about it.  Maybe I miss all the zombies.  Or the characters just aren’t interesting enough… And then there’s Empire.  Meh.  The episode felt rushed.  And what was that whole Chris Rock as the bad guy that Lucious orders to kill in prison? I mean c’mon now. Maybe I just need to wait a few weeks and binge watch a bunch of episodes.  Sometimes I prefer it that way.  Or maybe I should get a life and stop watching so much bad TV. Haha.  Anywho, did I ever mention that I watch General Hospital?  I mean if I can admit to the Real Housewives then clearly I have no limits.  Except I am Cait  (don’t even get me started).  I didn’t watch GH for a few months and recently started again.  (It’s how I get through an hour of cardio.)  It’s really funny in soap opera land though how the children age and one day they are 2 years old and the next time you see them they are 17. But somehow certain storylines take an entire freaking year to happen.  Hello Jake you are really Jason.  Or the previous one where Maxie was carrying her own baby and not Lulu and Dante’s.  I mean really.
• I’m feeling crafty lately.

I painted this island right before I moved into my boyfriends house to match his kitchen. It turned out really well considering I did a really rushed job and  didn’t prime it as well as I could of. My only real mistake is that I used a satin paint instead of semi-gloss. The satin shows way too many marks and doesn’t wipe off very well. I could always go over it with a clear gloss coat but I’m too lazy. And I’ve moved on to a bigger project.

I’m going to paint this table and chairs and re-upholster them. Oh what lofty ambitions I have! I’ll keep you updated.
