Summer Dreams
One of the first things my husband and I talked about was updating our backyard. Of course now that the economy has hit home, those summer dreams of patio chairs and a table have been put on hold. There's also talk of a fire pit and Jacuzzi which would definitely be nice! Well, maybe some day when things get better. Who knows. Until then there is always a little thing called window shopping!

What I Really Need
I'm getting tired of working at a kitchen table, so I was thinking.... Eventually I am going to need some new Office Furniture. When my husband and I had big plans to move to California, we sold just about everything we owned. So, right now I am working on an antique kitchen table instead of the Office Desk I used to have. It’s too big, too bulky and sticks halfway out into the middle of the dining room/office floor.
To make matters worse, this black leather office chair that we kept, that was in great condition, the cats have used as their scratching post. Unfortunately, there aren't really any office furniture stores in the area, so looking at Office Chairs, desks or anything else for that matter is nearly impossible.
So if I want to buy new office furniture, I guess I'm going to have to buy it online or get a decent vehicle that runs so that we can drive out of this tiny little town and do some real shopping. Well I was looking around and found I like officesupermarket. I've visited their site before through a friend and they have a lot of nice stuff. The only problem I see is that they are from United Kingdom. I could always have my friend ship the furniture to me.lol Just kidding Nattu!
Years ago I had this great cherry stained desk. I loved it. I can't remember where it was purchased at, but I wouldn't mind another cherry stained desk again. The one thing I don't want is a huge desk. The window that we have is a bay window and I would hate to block it off in any way. My husband wouldn't care, but he's not the one who works in an at-home office.lol I absolutely love looking out our bay window. It’s the highlight of my dreary days.
Now as far as the office chair, my husband might actually care about it.lol The black leather chair was originally his. But, of course I needed a chair to work in, so I took it over.lol My husband likes the big comfy chairs, which of course is why we have the big leather one.
I used to have a gray cloth office chair. It was another piece of office furniture that I loved because it was simple, yet comfortable. However, I can guarantee it wouldn’t survive even five minutes with our kittens who think they own the place.lol
I also had a white desk to go with that chair. Thinking back, I think both color choices were wrong, pets or no pets. They get dirty very easily and it’s just not very practical, so this time around I think I will stick with the darker shades.
Right now however, I just don't know what to do. While I am tired of working at a kitchen table, buying anything new is simply out of the question. What do you think? Should I buy something overseas or stick to a local place? I should upload a picture of the chair and table, just to show you what I'm talking about.lol

Whimsical Hammock Chairs and Extra Income
Eventually if we ever have extra income to fix up this house, I'd like to get some backyard stuff for the summer. Maybe a hammock chair to sit in and enjoy while the kids play out in the sandbox and pool. Now those whimsical chairs you see with Gardenfun.com are cute as heck, but a bit girlish for any guy or couple. I think they would be awesome for a little girl's playhouse or anyone who likes the fairy flowers theme stuff. What do you think?

My To-Do List
One of the things on my to-do list is buying a home entertainment theater. It's something I've just always wanted. Even though that someday will more than likely be a while, it doesn't hurt to look around. Right now Stands and Mounts is offering some great ideas for a home entertainment theater. Just check out their home theater chairs! Pretty cool I think. I can already imagine that my husband is going to love the idea of a gaming chair.lol Well at least shipping is free! If you're a big gamer like my husband is, this may very well be an idea place to stop by.
