Random Thoughts

Well, spring is here and I have antsies in my pantsies. Even though the weather has been quite gloomy this week, the warm temperatures have me daydreaming about beach trips and swimming pools. Maybe it's just me, but this semester seems to be dragging on and on. Even a couple of my professors have said so, and they're getting PAID to be here.

My sister was supposed to come visit me in a couple weeks, which always gets my spirits up, but unfortuately due to the outrageous price of air travel these days, it looks like she won't be able to after all. At least I'll get to make the trip to Michigan in May to see her graduate! I haven't seen my family's house (or the dog) in years, literally, and sometimes that makes me sad. Why hasn't someone invented a teleportation system yet? Or have they.... :)

Oh! On a happier note, Justin and I went to Lowe's together last week and picked out all the paint colors for the new house. We decided to go with a warm, brownish beige for the living room and kitchen - they will be the same color since the floor plan is open and they share walls. The bedroom will be a rich burnt orange, and the master bath will be a lightish olive green. Finally, the front bedroom, which we plan to use as an office, will be a beautiful blue. I've never been big on blue, but Justin and I both immediately liked this color when we saw it. We've decided not to paint the guest bedroom until we're ready to start a family because it's going to be our nursery, since it's so close to the master suite.

Come to think of it, maybe I'm restless because of the house. I'm ready to close on it and move in already! Graduation is in sight, too, which definitely doesn't help with the whole "ants in my pants" thing.

Happy Friday, everyone. Have a great weekend!

Love and Lattés,

Katie
