I wanna be a designer!

Another big purchase I plan on buying once I get my financial aid money is a new bed. I really hate how our bed is now since it’s just a frame even though it sits high up but I’d really like one with a headboard and footboard. I am going through this whole stage where I want our room to represent us and really want to paint the room and get a new bed since I think that will make our room more inviting and comfy. I’ve been scouring the net for different beds for the past week and the only conclusion I’ve came to about a new bed is that I really wish I could design furniture. If I could, I would in a heart beat because I know how I want the bed to look but actually finding the bed available somewhere else isn’t happening so far. Grrr. Any furniture store suggestions?

Laptop shopping

I have been looking for a new laptop, a netbook to be precise. I’ve always wanted to take my laptop to school but it’s so heavy lugging it around with all of my books hence the need for a netbook. I’ve been looking at two different Gateways since my current laptop is a Gateway and I love it. One of the major benefits I am really liking about the new netbooks is that they offer an online backup service which would be very beneficial to me. So, as soon as I receive my financial aid money, I will finally have a netbook that I can take to class with me which makes me feel like such a happy nerd, lol.

Coming soon to a browser near you!

Kateness.nu as my personal domain is coming to a close. I have bigger and better dreams for a personal blog. Kateness.nu has seen me through some very troubling times and has always been there for me and in respect for the domain, I’ve decided to NOT get rid of it but implement it as a side blog. I will be posting whatever the hey I want to post here but I also have some side projects as well. I think Kateness.nu might turn over into a portfolio, web hosting site, and a blog all in one.

So what are my other projects you might ask? Well one is a weight loss blog in which I plan on documenting my journey and discussing anything and everything related to diet and exercise including side effects of diet pills and why a lifestyle change is much safer than another fad diet.

Also, I plan on opening a new and improved personal domain. I feel that a new start is what I need for my new life. I have changed in so many ways and I think I need to open up a new spot on the interwebz in order to honor the new chapter of my life. I absolutely adore married life and the livelihood of being a new step-mommy to the most amazing 10 month old (turned 10 months old TODAY) baby boy ever to grace this Earth even though I might be a little biased. Lol. I just feel like this is a step in the right direction and is much needed. I plan on getting rid of a lot of posts here as well.

Another project would be yet another domain but this domain is a place I can talk about my dorky side from television rants and raves to information on the latest games I’m addicted to like my renewed addiction to WoW!

So as you can see, Kate will be quite the busy bee so please bare with me as I transition into everything. Also, please note that I am unsure of when my personal blog will be back up but I can guarantee it will be sometime in June. I’m waiting on some more money to come through and then I will purchase the domain. I already have it picked out so that’s not the problem, lol. I have everything ready to go once I purchase the domain. So until then, I will be blogging here about whatever my little heart desires and will be taking posts from various websites!

I’m really not vain, I swear!

Before the wedding, I got a facial done. It was my first facial and I was really nervous about it but I loved how my face and skin felt afterward. I was so relaxed except the part where the lady took the extractor and attacked my nose, but other than that the experience was very enjoyable. Ever since I got my facial done and started using the products I got from Stella Blu, I’ve noticed I’ve been looking in every mirror available to check my skin out. My face looks so radiant and bright compared to before. Well let’s say before this week it looked all radiant and bright since I slacked off on using my moisturizer every day. Slacking off is definitely a symptom of being out of school. Yesterday when I was at the convenience store grabbing a Sprite after pumping my gas, I noticed in the little convex mirror they use to spot shop lifters and such, that my face looked very dry. Yes, I did check myself out in the shop lift mirror but that doesn’t make me vain. I was standing in line and the guy in front of me was taking forever as he bought every type of scratch off available to man-kind so what else was I suppose to do? Point of the story is I really need to start taking better care of myself. I’ve also noticed that since school has been out I have forgotten to take my medicine two days in a row which scares me since I can’t live without it. The slacker attitude is seriously taking over my life!

Poor hubby!

Ever since Jonathan and I got together, he has always complained about his back itching and it wasn’t just a regular itch. He would use every available doorway to scratch his back and it was like it would never get relief. This past month, I noticed his back starting breaking out with these little red bumps in areas and then his whole back would have red blotches. After finally getting tired of him complaining, I made him go to the doctor. It turns out, Jonathan has eczema on his back and other parts of his body but his back is the main infected area. You have no idea how relieved he was to learn there was a reason his back was doing this and he could finally get a cream to put on his back so it’d get better. My poor hubby!
