I hope your Monday is going well so far! I had a great weekend filled with a Scentsy/Fondue party, a lovely birthday gathering for my aunt, a little shopping fun through Craft Warehouse, and a relaxing Sunday with the husband. We're still behind on Revenge, but Dexter and Homeland are the Sunday night shows we watch. (and The Walking Dead starts back up next Sunday!!)
It is time again for Friend Makin' Monday. If you have a blog, I would like to invite you to answer the questions as well. Leave me a comment here, so I know you are playing. Then you can also leave a comment over at All The Weigh, so other folks can check out your answers as well. It is a fun way to connect to other bloggers.
Inside Your Home
1. Do you live in an apartment/condo, townhouse or house?
House.
2. What is your home’s coolest feature?
Compared to our last place, it isn't connected to anyone else, accepts all our fur kids, and is very close to Sean's work and civilization.
3. Do you enjoy DIY projects? If so, what are you working on now?
I love crafting DIY projects. I'm not an outdoorsy/gardening/house chores kind of DIYer. This weekend Sean made a new ramp for Miss P (our middle fur kid). Her back legs are getting worse, so the inclined ramp she had was getting harder for her to navigate. Sean ended up making her a beautiful, staired ramp with sides. Now she doesn't have to worry about falling off. My contribution to the project comes in the form of a sign that I woodburned that says "Chiwa Express".
4. When using the dishwasher do you use powder detergent or liquid?
I use the little pre-ready packets you pop into the compartment. I tend to get whatever I have a coupon for once I run out. Last time, it was the liquid. This time, it's the hard packed powder junk.
5. Do you have a TV in your bedroom?
Yes, indeed. We don't use it often since we no longer have a DVR in there, but it's nice to just lay in bed some times and watch a show.
6. Is your range gas or electric?
Electric. I hate gas stoves. They terrify me.
7. How often do you sweep/mop/vacuum?
Probably not as often as I should, but I try to keep everything clean and do it as needed.
8. What is your favorite place to shop for home furniture and accents?
I guess the only place we've really shopped for furniture together is Ikea. I love a lot of the different stuff they have at Home Goods, but it is still so expensive. Plus, our place is small, so we don't have a lot of room for big pieces. As far as accents go, I look everywhere. You never know what you will find. I love to personalize things or just make or decorate my own accents as well.
9. Do you decorate for holidays?
I have a wreath on the door that I add accents to in order to reflect the holiday or season. I also have a tealight holder from Partylite that I change out for the seasons and such. I'll have to blog about it sometime. You can almost make a little diorama in it for each holiday. For Halloween, I put up a few things at the front door. And then for Christmas, I have a wreath I made, the tree (of course), and some other knick-knacks.
10. If you could have HGTV come in and redo one room in your home which room would you choose?
Well, I'd want them to wait til we own a home with lots of space. Right now, I think the office needs help because I spend most of my time in here. I feel it can be better arranged and organized. If someone else was paying for it all, it could be super snazzy.
Now, it's your turn! Have a great week!!
