Fix-er-Upper

Today marks the day where I went into an Ace Hardware to buy things to fix up my own place. Don't get me wrong. I have been in Ace before, and Home Depot, and Lowes ... probably more times than I've been to church. My dad is an amazing handyman, and therefore, I have spent many an hour with him in hardware stores growing up. DIY has been a family value forever. If you can do it yourself, you should. Therefore I am trying to embrace the inner "handywoman" in me, hence going to Ace Hardware by myself to purchase my very own paint roller, brushes, pan, and drop cloth today. I will be painting my new room "apple river" blue, and am actually pretty excited to fix this new place up... I guess we'll see how long that lasts after the first time I drip paint on the floor, or in my eye. Ha.

Anyway, Dad - expect a few phone calls over the next few weeks as I begin a very small start in your footsteps.......... hopefully avoiding the wrath of any, and all utility knives (haha - too soon??)
