Well, it's certainly been a while. I've had to prioritize things other than Betty. Partly, getting a job, and partly, visiting a friend of mine who was sick upstate.
I've come into winter with lots of ideas but not cash. However, I've made some plans and some minor improvements.
First, I got some proper curtains and curtain rods to hang up in the bedroom. The living room curtains have been replaced except for one window. Basically, when I've got the cacsh I'm going to replace the hangers with something nicer, and go with the "thick" rods from West Elm.
Second, I've decided on colors. I just have to find time to paint, and then buy them. Maybe as early as January, but more likely February or March.
