Holy crap, I just about forgot what I was going to tell you. Thank goodness I had already saved my pics from the web, so I had those to jar my memory.I am currently obsessed, thanks to another blogger, in changing out all my wall and switch plates with ones like the one above from Target. I did my bedroom already and they are so pretty! Now I need to order some faux wood blinds and paint and the room will be gorgeous. Did I tell you we've lived in our house for over 7 years and still have not repainted the mint green walls yet? We are super lazy about that kind of stuff.
So any deals on blinds? I've got four giant, practically floor-to-ceiling windows that currently have nasty metal blinds on them that I'll need to re-do. I also need to pick out a color to paint. I'm thinking a taupe or something light and neutral. I also will need somewhere to go for a weekend so I can let Mr. Sasha paint in peace since I would drive him crazy with my OCD-ness and we would certainly file for divorce after the experience. It's just best that I'm not there.
Oh- my new glasses came in yesterday and I love them! They are Coach Hilary in dark brown and I feel so hip and cool, although I know that glasses can't magically change the fact that I am pretty uncool and not very hip at all. Still, I've got a little spring in my step today and I think I'll wear them for a few days before I go back to my contacts.Going to Taco Cabana for lunch, they have Pineapple Chipolte salsa again!!!!!! My friend and I stalk them and flip out whenever they have it on the salsa bar, which is a few times a year. We ask for a super big bowl because those little plastic cups just don't hold enough. I could drink it. Seriously. I like it more than margaritas.
By the way, Blogger's spell check hasn't been working for me for over a week. I hereby apolozige for any stupid misspellings- but it's just not my fault.

I'm all about the upgraded switchplates too. I found them on a great clearance at Target a few years ago and did the whole house (switchplates AND outlets) for under $100!
My blogger spell check has been out-of-commission this week too! Love the glasses.
Try Penney's for the blinds. They often have 50-70% off deals. I've been meaning to get some myself.
Try Ralph Lauren "Tangier Island" for your paint color in the bedroom, it's warm and lovely. Plus, it will remind you of me...

We got faux wood blinds at Lowe's. They were semi-custom -- you could get them cut for width, but they came in standards lengths. But, it was only $40 a window, so it was much cheaper than custom.
We did Benjamin Moore Carlisle Cream throughout our hallways. It's a nice neutral tan.
Northwest Building Supplie is were we went for our wood blinds. We built our house 2 years ago and did wood blinds in all rooms. They are very inexpensive but are very high quality! Plus they come out and messure then install. I would HIGHLY recommend them!
NW Building Supply is located in OKC off of Reno and I believe they have a store in Edmond too!
I heart the glasses, and I just posted on AMLG about Everyday Minerals!
Summary? I. Am. In. Love.
Cute new glasses, I am finally going to the eye doctor after 5 years of getting by half blind, I have finally decided it would be nice to read the TV guide on my TV.
I like your new frames!
