Quickness of Change

Blake and I were discussing the other day the speed at which I change things. Not because I grow tired of them, but mostly because I find something I like better. Thankfully, Blake doesn't seem to mind that I am constantly moving stuff around.
Nothing major has happened lately on the house, but stuff has changed. Mostly decor. We have gotten all of the downstairs doors up and some of the baseboards...more on that another time.
I figured that a good update was in order.
When we first moved into the house our bedroom was, well,...putting it nicely...leaving something to be desired.
We painted the walls grey, pulled up the carpet, pulled down the curtains and switched out the fan. Then proceeded to move our furniture in.
I need to stress here, that our room is NOT big. If we had a king size bed, it wouldn't fit. We are ok with it. But, our furniture was just too big for our bedroom so we decided that we would use two dressers as night stands and I got new bedding in hopes that it would brighten up the space.
We sold off our side tables and long dresser in lieu of the two dressers.
It felt better with the two dressers and we surprisingly had more storage space (which we desperately need).
Imagine Blake's surprise **insert sarcastic tone** when he came home one day and I told him I wanted to move around the bedroom.
Moving around the bedroom to make everything fit, and still get access to our closet, required me to not have a nightstand. It felt so much better to not have the window blocked, so I was OK with that.
I also decided to paint the wall above our bed instead of hanging art.
I decided to go with a triangle design and I am pretty happy with it.
Our room is still lacking "something" I am just not quite sure what that is yet.
The nice thing is, I am not in a super rush to figure out what IT is.
I am just please that our room doesn't look like a dirty motel anymore.

I am hoping that now that we have figured out what was wrong with Penny, I can update a little more frequently. There are definitely things that have changed.
