I thought I'd start my first post by telling you a little about me. I grew up in Carnation, WA, about 30 minutes (with no traffic, anyway) east of Seattle. My husband Tommy and I recently bought a house in North Bend, where we reside with our two cats, Trucker and Romeo, and three chickens, Helga, Svetlana, and Oprah.
Our home!
I guess you could say I'm a small town kinda girl. Most would label me as shy or quiet, but those who really know me would likely say the opposite. I'm tall (yep.. 6 foot!). I have a Type A personality (perfectionist.. check.. impatient.. check.. competitive.. check..). I love to clean- yes, clean. I love to cook and drink wine. I love animals. I love the outdoors (hiking, fishing, gardening, snowmobiling, camping, long drives). I work to play- but I do love my job! One thing I should mention is that I LOVE to paint/stain furniture. My goal with this blog is to put together various DIY "How-To's" on my projects, and hopefully learn and grow as each project is completed.
Enough about me! Last year, I married the man of my dreams. I know that sounds cliché, but it's true. A little history there... I met Tommy through my old roommate. I was single at the time, and she introduced us at a couple of social outings (he was good friends with her ex-boyfriend). Tommy was in a relationship, so I really thought nothing of it. I just knew he was fun to be around. Almost 6 months later, him and his girlfriend broke up. Him and I started talking, and wa-lah! We have now been married for almost 10 months. Most would label Tommy as outgoing and magnetic. I don't think I have met one person that doesn't enjoy being around him. We bring out the best in each other and I think that is what is most important.
