Update: I'm almost done with my home makeover!

Lemme explain.

The actual kitchen has been done for a few days. The thing is, one of the big parts of the renovation opened the room up a lot and made my kitchen, living room and dining room much more of one big room. I couldn't do the kitchen and stop there! The whole area had to be painted!

That's one reason it's taking so long.

Another reason is way more fun for you all. I'm working with one more sponsor for the giveaway part of the reveal. Woohoo! That means a bigger giveaway prize! And, I promise, this prize will not disappoint! Want a sneak peek at the companies in the prize?

What the wha???!!! That's crazy, right?! I'm tellin' ya, this is going to be awesome possum!

So, give me a little more time to finish my painting and get my ducks in a row.

In the meantime, let's have a little 5QF! Head over to Mama M's blog if you wanna play along!



1. If you could speak with a different accent, what would it be (i.e Australian, Scottish)?

British. I used to pretend to have a british accent sometimes when I went out partying in my younger years.

Oooh, or Jersey! I frackin' love the thick Jersey accents!

Oh oh oh! Or Boston! Like, heavy, Good Will Hunting type Boston accent!

2. Can you fall asleep anywhere? (i.e floor, couch, deck)

No. I was never that kid that could sleep in school. Can't sleep in the car. Gotta be with my pillows and all comfy cozy.

3. Do you use public restrooms? If so, do you sit on the toilet?

Yes and yes. When you gotta go, you gotta go!

4. If you were stuck in an elevator for 24 hours, what celebrity would you most want to be stuck with?

Hmmmm. So many different criteria to think about. William Shatner would be entertaining. Eminem would be awesome. Ellen Degeneres would be entertaining as well. But, why am I in the elevator? Maybe I need someone like Chuck Norris or Macguyver or someone else that I would be safe from the zombies and get me out of the elevator?

5. Where did you & your significant other go on your 1st date?

My apartment. Where we talked and hung out all night long and I never wanted the sun to come up.


Ok, it's crazy early here and I gotta get all my peeps up so TRex can go to school. Then, you guessed it, more painting! I swear, I'm bustin' my butt to get this finished! I will say, it looks utterly amazing! I cannot WAIT to reveal this makeover to y'all! Won't be long now!

Have a great weekend! We're getting our first cold front of the fall! Woot! Gonna get down to a chilly 82 degrees!
