Have you ever wanted to have sex really bad? I mean really bad. Bad enough that you kept thinking about it at inopportune times? But, you were so bone-deep weary and tired that you just couldn't make it happen?
Yeah. That's how I feel about blogging right now.
I've had tons of things to talk about and keep composing posts in my head, but I just haven't had the time or energy.
I have been in a major nesting mode lately. My husband took a few days off of work and we finally, finally, finally got this house decorated. Or at least the ground floor of it, anyway.
I can't tell you how happy this makes me!
It's about time. We got a new chandelier to replace the 1990's brass monstrosity that we've been pretending isn't actually hanging in our faces for a year and a half. We replaced kitchen cabinet knobs and door knobs. We hung pictures and curtains.
This all makes me unaccountably joyful!
I guess I just needed an impetus.
A few months ago I volunteered to host a home concert for our teacher's violin studio. I did it purposefully knowing that it would finally push me to make the house presentable. I guess it worked.
As it turned out, we had to host two back-to-back concerts because our teacher has so many students this year.
I was nervous about the whole thing, but it was a blast. I even had fun moving out our furniture to set up the stage and chairs. Oh, and my piano was extremely happy to be played by the professional accompanist we hired. She was awesome.
The design of our house does lend itself well to a concert setting. I have a feeling will be hosting a few more concerts in the years to come.
Now, there. I did it. I blogged something.
Now if I can just get myself to seduce my husband (when he gets home from D.C. this weekend) I'll really be getting somewhere.
In the meantime, enjoy some pictures.
