Happy 100th Post!!

Actually this is my 101st post.  But how awesome is it that I've written 100 posts?!?!



Are you guys sick of me yet?  I mean, I see my stats and I can tell that you all are still reading.  So I know there are some of you out there.  Somewhere.  Far far away.  Maybe it's just for the swears?  I hope that you are still finding me hilarious at my being candid with you all.  I mean who else posts stories with dirty bras and boxes of tampons in the background?  Or shows how disgusting I can be when I don't want to do dishes and let 2 weeks worth pile up on the counters because my dishwasher is full?  Or thinks that others really care about what my new welcome mat looks like?

I honestly never thought that I would be able to do this- telling you all about my life through this medium.  I figured I'd get bored as you all know my attention span is smaller than a gnat.  People have always said that I need to write a book about my life because even with this 100 posts under my belt- there are still PLENTY of ridiculous stories that I have out there that having zero to do with DIY.  But I just never thought that I could put myself out there.  And I honestly never thought that you would care enough to read and it would just be my parents because they felt they had too.  Love you mom and dad!  Sorry for all the shit talking!!

One of my favorite things about doing this blog is receiving the emails and messages from you showing me your projects that you've done after you saw something that I did and it inspired you feel like you could do it too.  That really makes my day.  

I hope you all continue on this journey with me as I really am having a blast telling and showing you all my life behind the closed doors.  And if you don't, well, you can suck my left tit.

DIY Mason Jar Oil Burner

I had an impromptu day off of work on Friday so that was pretty unexpected.  Hell yeah!  My new garage freezer was delivered which I am totally excited about!  Oh I did not tell you about my new freezer purchase yet?  My bad! I finally bit the bullet and went and purchased one a couple of weekends ago.  I've been eyeing one for a while now but kept waiting for it to go on-sale.  It has- a few times- but I was waiting to see if it would go lower on-sale.  It hasn't.  It was originally $649 and shockingly after shopping around to all of the big box home stores- the cheapest was at Best Buy.  I bought it during the 4th of July savings event so it was on-sale for $552.  They were also running a special that if you used your Best Buy card- you'd save an additional 5% off plus have free financing for 18 months.  Showing a little boob got me free shipping and free haul away (a combined cost of $90) so for the grand total I paid $527.  Not bad.  It ends up being about $30 a month

There Must Be Something About This Color

I've done it again.  I think I need more friends because it seems when I have down time, I paint things. If you haven't noticed, I paint a lot- therefore I apparently have no friends.  So painting is what I did yesterday.  At least this was something that was kind of necessary.  Since I went and screwed the piece up by doing another project way back when. Let's start with this.  You remember my cute little pedestal table in my kitchen, right?  Don't mind the old photos.  There are no pumpkins currently on the table.  I'm not that crazy. OK- while I was staining my new laundry room shelves however many months ago, I somehow got splatters of stain all over the top of this table.  Which, as you can see, is no where near the laundry room or the shelves that actually got the stain.  Apparently I'm super talented like that. After I finally realized that the stain got on the table top, well after it was dried of course, I knew I needed to try to fix it.  I

My Awesome Porch Facelift

OK if one could actually marry a screened porch, I'd be the first in line to get that marriage certificate.  I mean, in some states you can marry a goat, so I'm thinking I might just have a chance with my porch.  This makeover is FAR from done but the last two days I have spent almost every waking hour out there fixing 'er up and getting 'er done.  Beware, you might want to go potty or get a drink cuz this is gonna be a long one.  Don't say I didn't warn you. If you've followed this blog for a while, you will know that I hate my screened porch.  Like DESPISE it.  I was so unbelievably excited to spend $5,000 on it when purchasing my mansion.  I had dreams of sitting out there, bug free, enjoying the sunsets with a nice cold beer.  All of the houses that I toured did not have a screened porch and when I closed on my house, I knew why.  Cuz it was the worst $5,000 I had ever spent.  And I throw 5 G's around like it's nothing, let me tell you.  I was
