Floating

We found out the sex of our baby today!  I couldn't concentrate before the appointment to write anything and now I am so excited I can't concentrate to write anything.  We are having a GIRL!  Ah.  I am so excited for a baby girl but I am also getting petrifying flashes of a 13+ year old girl.

On the home design front I can report that I found my first road side furniture piece and had the guts to pick it up.  I never have taken anything off the road for two reasons.  First, I have this fear that someone will come out and yell at me that it's not for free.  Second, I fear why they might be getting rid of it/what went on in the house where it comes from.  I have always envied people who have great things that they paint or stain or reupholster and when I ask where they got it...."For free on the side of the road."  I found a chair outside of a friend's house last night and I thought why not?!  I am excited to paint it in a high gloss paint, lacquer it up and reupholster it with some amazing fabric....maybe leather with hammered nails.  Hmmm.  We'll see.  It will be fun to have a before and after to post!
