So lately I've been feeling that my surroundings could be the one to blame for my lack of productivity. It's holding me back! The apartment I currently live in is an old vintage building that dates back to the 1920's (yeah we just NOW after 2 years got the notice that there still might be traces of lead paint in our apartment, thanks guys). The apartment has great natural lighting, hard wood floors, framed arch ways, and is a pretty good size. Unfortunately, it has a "pest" infestation (this makes me sound dirty, I'm not...it's the building!) and, well, that's enough reason for me to want to move out of this (beautiful) place! If only if only this problem did not exist, I would live here for years to come but it does and it won't go away (easily, atleast.) So, waiting until March to find a new abode and getting very impatient. This means a new beginning though!


So I've been thinking, what do I want to live like and in? I'm starting to understand that the chaos of everything in my apartment is taking a toll on my ability to function without just shutting it all out with t.v. Also, I feel Lisandro and I are maturing and we're not just that young couple who just moved out of their parents house for the first time (that was three years ago!). Those people were the ones that wanted every poster from every concert they went to on the wall; had a corner designated for laundry instead of a laundry basket, and just shoved things into the closest, most convenient drawer. Now that I am starting to discover what I truly like, what I truly want to do, and realizing that I'm most likely going to be with this boy for the rest of my life, I'm ready to take serious time and $$ to create my dream living space! With a little bit of organization, a theme that we can agree on, some colors and patterns, topped with inspirational and collectible pieces decorated all throughout the space- I might finally be able to think clearly ;). We will see (March, where are yooooou?!)
