Harmony's Nook

Okay. There is a reason I haven’t posted pictures of my apartment yet. Well…TWO reasons I suppose…well maybe three. Four? First off, I have been busy. Really busy. I’m working on multiple projects right now and my precious time off is just that: Time Off.

Second of all, I’ve been a little low. Not depressed…but slightly low nevertheless. I blame it on the lack of SUN! There is no sun. It can be cold. That’s fine. BUT GIVE ME SOME DARN SUN.

Speaking of sun, I have wanted to take natural light pictures of the rooms I have completed (more on this later) and it has proven impossible due to the aforementioned LACK OF SUN.

Okay fourth. This is fourth, right?

Sigh.

Okay….here goes…rip the band-aid off Harmony.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip….

OUCH! Yeah….so….ummmm….that’s my closet right now. I know. I know. I’m so ashamed. And I know the picture is sideways. I thought that was appropriate.

Second Band-aid coming up:

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip…

OUUUUUCH! (These band-aids hurt!) This is my room. The room that I dreamed about for years, that I waxed poetic about, that I yearned for……ummmm…this is it. I cover my head in shame.

So, how did this happen? I ran out of steam. I worked my tail feathers off getting the rest of the apartment ready for the housewarming party that we had. My room became the catchall for anything we didn’t know what to do with. I could have been deceitful and shown you pictures of the parts of the apartment that are finished and lovely instead of the one spot that isn’t finished, but alas, I’ve always been a bit of a masochist. And I have to be brutally honest with you guys or how could I possibly offer advice on other topics?

It happens. We fall behind. We lose steam. We get discouraged. We take things for granted. It’s not the end of the world. Just don’t let it go on too long. Don’t let it become habit. My family is coming up in a week so I KNOW I will take care of my room. It’s the last obstacle really.

You know what? There’s a fifth reason I haven’t posted pictures. I have been enjoying my apartment.. Instead of worrying if I have styled everything satisfactorily enough to put on this blog, I have been making bread and stews, having people over, taking baths in my own private bathroom, reading books in my MESSY ASS bedroom, and enjoying the fruition of a dream come true.

I WILL post pictures. I promise. Just please be patient with me. Let me live a little first. Enjoy it first. Then I’ll share. I’m selfish. Right now I want it all to myself. In the meantime here is a picture of me making bloody mary’s at my housewarming/ birthday party. My face says it all. I’m happy here.
