Frugal with a Flourish: A New Big Project!!

So I have been working on a new project ... one that is going to take me away from the blog a little over the next couple weeks. Can you guess? (If you are up on "the situation" you might have an idea!)

We are moving! No we haven't sold the house. (Yet...) But we did find a great new rental that puts the lil one bedroom place we are in currently to shame! We are about have three bedrooms and two baths with a garage! Ahhhh ... space!!!

The hubby and I haven't killed each other after a year with one bedroom, one TV and one bathroom. But I am super psyched to have a little more space (and two bathrooms). And more importantly, it is more space to decorate, more space to create, and most importantly - a place where I can actually spray paint! (For some reason that is frowned upon on my apartment balcony - go figure.)

I have so many projects I can't wait to get underway, but first I am going to have to get out of this place. Since I write about the things that are happening, you can expect to see some moving/cleaning out/cleaning up projects make it over here. But don't go hating on me if I don't post too much here - I got a lotta work to do!

Congrats on the move! I have a love/hate relationship with moving. I LOVE being able to clean, organize, and purge....but I hate having to do the actual packing and moving!
