That could be awesome, Flea! Wallpaper is not as easy to fix as paint, but still not too bad. Location! Also, more than one bathroom, which I feel is key in a family.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I lived really close to there, on Bach, longer ago than I care to admit. That's a nice area. (So close to Target!) (And the giant creepy church!)

Meara, it sounds like you need to get things in writing and have her sign off on them. "We are now doing X Project in this fashion."

Because books.

That's adorable, flea, and it looks like it's in great condition. Take down the wallpaper and you're done! I love the deck on the back, too.

Goodness woman, where haven't you lived! This is close enough to our current location that we'd basically have the same commutes and routines.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Luckily I wear flats and many brands of dress pants assume I'll be wearing heels, so I can often fit regular length dress pants.

That's basically my theory with jeans. They are not too too short, but like a half-inch shorter than I'd like. But Tall pants are now too long for me, and I can't be bothered with hemming, basically. I'm right in the middle, leg-length-wise.

Seriously. I've lived in every part of town except the West side (people joke that Northside -- despite the name -- technically qualifies as West side, since it's west of 75, but...no) and Northern Kentucky. I moved a LOT until I was 30.

Flea, the back yard area looks great for kids and entertaining. And all that wood flooring looks great, too.

I'm wearing a skirt at work for the first time in ages. It's a black pencil skirt, and it keeps creeping up my thighs as I sit and type, so I suspect it won't get into heavy rotation. Pity--it looks pretty good.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's basically my theory with jeans. They are not too too short, but like a half-inch shorter than I'd like. But Tall pants are now too long for me, and I can't be bothered with hemming, basically. I'm right in the middle, leg-length-wise.

Me too. I keep thinking that if I get back in the habit of exercising I'll probably drop another size and the talls will be just right. That doesn't seem to be quite enough motivation though.

I am this way with jeans, except in petites. Petite length is just slightly too short, whereas regular almost always requires a ridiculous amount of hemming except when it doesn't, which makes NO SENSE since I am the average height of women in the U.S.

More proof that Women's clothing sizing is ridonk.
