Have not had any good sleep since I arrived in Seattle a year ago. I'm cursed to sleep like an ancient Chinese peasant. I turn and toss and wake up with backaches whenever I sleep on a soft bed. MoofMoof's bed is what most would call soft and comfortable. However it's not my block of bed. I end up feeling lethargic every day.

To solve that, we both pull out our sleeping bags one night. Slept through the whole night wrapped in warm fleece blankets. Voila, I woke up feeling fresher than ever. Unfortunately, MoofMoof looked like a zombie (one with a terrible backache) the whole day. Obviously, hard and firm is not for him. Thus, we've been sleeping separately for the past 1 week. Me on the floor with my sleeping bag and fleece blanket, him on the bed with our awesome quilt. We are miserable!

Is there a bed out there that is soft on one side and firm on the other? If anyone knows such a bed existed, let me know. Or if you know of any good idea to solve our problem, let me know too.

At least for now, I don't have to wake up feeling like I need to go back to bed in 2 hours.

I woke up feeling good and fresh this morning. Put on the music, brushed my teeth, showered and put on a nice warm purple dress with my 3 quarter tights. 

It's spring time, now why the hell did it snow???!!!

That's our future room and DIY renovation is in progress. We have been working on it for a month now and hopefully it'll be completed in another 3 weeks time. I can't wait to move in because I love love love to have my own bathroom. The little wooden door in the 1st picture is the door to my own little bathroom. :D. We have another wooden door that leads to the rest of the house and a glass panel sliding door that opens up to the backyard. Cool huh?

Anyway here's the work we've accomplished so far:

1. Scraping off the "Popcorn" ceiling
2. Filling up cracks on the ceiling
3. Painting the ceiling. We chose pale yellow to go with the new wall colors
4. Removing the old wall edging strips/wall trims
5. Replacing the old wall with new ones. As you can see from the 2nd picture, the old wall is the white area in the picture with small little holes texture. We thought it looks kinda weird and painting it would be a toughie
6. Painting the walls. We chose bright orange and dark chocolate for the walls to create a little bright and dark contrast as we didn't want the room to be too bright nor too dark
7. Fixing the new little edging strips from hell!!! Man, taking them out was so easy but putting them back was tough as hell. The toughest part is getting the angles and measurements right. So next time, when your contractor charges you a little more for the edges, don't complain
8. Painted the edging strips from hell white

And that's all for now.

Stay tuned for more info as we progress further in the makeover project.
