thoughts on sunday.

i went appliance shopping with my mom earlier. have you seen those new french door refrigerators? they’re getting the kenmore elite one that is on the sears commercials that they play during extreme home makeover. it’s awesome!
afterwards we came back to my [...]

i admit it. laundry is my weakness. if there is anything in this world that i hate, it’s doing the laundry. actually, i don’t mind the actual washing of the clothes, and folding is alright. but putting the clothes up… it just bugs me. don’t i sound like a spoiled brat?
so some days i wake [...]
