My last two weeks at Coconut Point flew by!
And now I am back at Freddie's Beach. Blech!
During my second week, my co-worker went on vacation, and so for 7 glorious days I had her car, and I felt like a freakin teenager again!
Car = freedom!
Every day I drove around and accomplished so many errands.
I went to Ace Hardware...Cost-U-Less and stocked up.
If I saw a fruit or vegetable stand, I was able to stop and peruse all the goods, and took my sweet time.
I could drive to the Post Office or refill my water whenever I wanted to.
I even went to the movies on a whim late at night.
I even drove past 25mph! Rebel, I know.
And most important of all, I went fabric shopping!
Check it out! This is Manua's.
Half of the warehouse is devoted to fabric!
So many endless aisles of fabric!
Rows and rows...
Looking back, I feel like I rushed myself because the warehouse is NOT air conditioned and there are a horrible storm outside. I was determined not to drive home in the rain at night.
Pink for the kitchen door, and dark blue pattern for the couches.
When I got home, the first thing I did was cover the couches and I loved it!
But I don't like the baby blue. It does not go with the couches....
So I am switching it up...yellow for the kitchen, baby blue for the second room, and I'll take the pink to work and throw it on a filing cabinet.
Now that I am without a car again, I hope to convince a friend to take me to Manua's.
I am thinking white and cream solid colors for the curtains in the living room, and perhaps yellow and green pillows...hmmm...
There was really so much fabric...I am already imaging all the clothes I am going to have made.
I planned ahead and brought clothes that I want them to copy.
Yes, I have a new addiction!
Sorry - I know this was not a food post.
I promise I will post that tomorrow.
My first four weeks flew by, and I have been busy at work.
I can't believe this is my 6th week....time is flying.
