ORC: A process that literally forces you to make a freaking decision whether you want to or not. Similar to poking a stick in your eyes until it hurts really bad.
Yep.....down to the wire people. Here we all are busy finishing up so we can style and photograph for the big reveal next week.
If you are new here....and don't know what the ORC is too bad. You're smart.....I know you can figure it out :)
I left you last week with the challenging job of hanging 11 pictures into plaster.
My husband so graciously hung these for me 6 years ago in my LR. 6 years.....a lot can happen. He wasn't so excited about it this time so I found myself with a tape measure, nails, hammer, level and a shitload of anxiety. Anyone else have this phobia about nailing things into the wall? Is there a pill for someone who has nightmares about numerous nail-holes behind pictures?
But....as I have said before....deadlines will make a person do things out of character.
I am here to tell you that I am standing on the mountain screaming out to the world....."take that hula hoop". Don't even try and keep me down...."gimme the hammer baby.....and move back". "I got this".
BAM.
Not one extra hole....
Took me 2 hours though.
You can see out of the corner that I used crystal knobs on the black chest. Linda suggested it. I was at Anthro and...well they were there....so done. I had checked around for some cool brass ones but to be truthful.....got lazy Can you relate?
I tried about 20 throws....what? Don't act surprised...you know you have a bunch stashed about. Anyway...amazing how when I put the black and white on and took the picture it was perfect.
When you read this I will be on an airplane heading down to Tortola to sail the BVI on a 50 ft catamaran for a week with a cook, captain, and 3 other couples. Whoop.
The bad part of this vacation is I had to go buy a bathing suit. Tell me something worse and I will slap you back into reality.
I was in the dressing room and I looked in the mirror and screamed...."who the hell is that? Grandma?"....turned around and I was alone. WHAT....I was shocked!! The salesperson came to the door and asked if I needed any help....guess she heard the commotion.
Can you help? Not unless you can turn the clock back 20 years babe. Now beat it.
