It was another home improvement weekend. In the past month or so I've made a lot of changes to my house. I'd say they're pretty minor but still enough to make a big difference. I put some money aside to make some changes, all I needed was time to go through with my ideas. I made a lot of changes to the living room area mainly, and finally put up some decorations that have been waiting to be hung.

A list of some changes:
- curtains (again), for the bedroom. Not too happy with the color, but I'll wait on changing them yet again, hehe
- wall decor, much more pleasing to the eye :)
- coffee table, gave my old one to B and bought a new one along with new ottomans with the convertible tray top :D
- side table, to match the coffee table
- lovesac, unfortunately is no longer. It took up too much space and no matter where we put it, it was hard to get around it. It now resides in my cousin's huge bedroom.
- curtains, to provide privacy near the french door. My initial idea didn't work out, but I think it looks better with the curtains up.
- screen door, at the front door. I originally wanted to get those security doors but this one is a fraction of the cost and looks better. It was quite a task for B and me to install, but we're happy with the result :)

With some of the money saved on alternatives, I still have much of my money left over so I'm kind of waiting and debating what I want to spend the rest on. Here are some things I still want to "improve":
- new dining set, but don't know what to do with the current one
- fix screen door in master bedroom
- add closet door to guest room
- add closet racks to office
- fix mirror on office closet
- landscape front yard/patio
- new LCD TV!!! I'm waiting on a great deal and I want to hang it above the fireplace and with that I won't have to worry about the next on the list...
- new tv stand to match the other furniture

Of course there are some things that could wait, but sometimes I get real picky and anal retentive and don't like to wait, haha!
