I needed a laugh today!

Guess who is out of credit card debt? Finally after a long, panstakingly hard 9 months, I'm free!!! Of course it didn't come easy. I have been working 2 jobs almost 5 days a week. On top of that doing hair appointments almost every Saturday. So I'm breathing a little easier today because I don't have my head in the guillotine anymore.

To celebrate, I bought myself a new camera. And no, not on credit. My other camera has hit the dust therefore, no pictures for a while. I'm excited to get it: it's a Nikon D40. It's not a professionals camera but more than just a fit-in-my-pocket camera. I'm hoping to get it before the leaves start changing.

Ikea rocks!

So I went to Ikea Saturday afternoon and bought some much needed shelves for my room. I've been running out of space and so I needed something a little larger to cover my needs. Of course Ikea always come through for those desperate decorating times. For those of you who have never seen my room before, just know that the 2 big, dark shelving units are new, and my bed was in there place. Oh and I got this really cool reading lamp as well. It's really really bright! Great for those late night reads!!!

Isn't she lovely?

Natalie says she is trying to make her daughter be photogenic instead of shying away from the camera. I think it's working! This was taken today...Labor Day!
