still distracted...

I think I have a problem. It is three in the morning and I can't sleep. Most nights I have trouble falling asleep, because my mind just races with thoughts. Thoughts like...

I should make Brooklyn a dollhouse for Christmas, I better get started now... I loved that bedding for her, but I just bought bedding for her...I wonder if I could sell it on ebay?...I wish those shower curtains would get here, could I live with a pattern or should I stick with the white?...I hope I can buy a new hardware for the sink, I wonder if I could install it myself...should I use towel bars or just hooks?...I kind of like the look of hooks...I hope someone drops so I can switch classes...I better get Brooklyn in for her physical...

and it never stops.

So I get online and I look at blogs, or I look at magazines. Like it is just some itch that I can scratch and go back to sleep. But it isn't. If I were sick in a hospital bed, I would probably be thinking of what wall colors would make the room more cozy and inviting. I'm NUTS. That is all there is to it.

I'm back in school, and so that's good. I love my college. Both of my parents graduated from the college I go to, and when I walk around the campus I think of them. I imagine them walking the same sidewalks when I was just a baby. Slow and steady wins the race, and that is my plan for the next 5 or 6 years.
Bathroom #1 has an enclosed tub. It isn't the most attractive bath, but I kind of like it. I'm thinking I want to hang a shower curtain anyway, just to soften the room a bit. I know if I buy a shower curtain with a pattern I will be ready for a new one in about two to three months. So I thought I would stick with white. White always looks fresh, clean, crisp. I found this curtain at Anthropologie...pretty, love the ruffles...but $98 is way to much for me to spend on a shower curtain.


Then I found this one online at Target! It was only $29.99, with free shipping to boot! It had great customer reviews. I should have stopped there and called it good. But I kept looking.

And I found this one. It was on sale for $23. I like the flowers, and I think the blues might be perfect for the wall color I have chosen...but its a pattern. Ugh. But its on sale! What if it just looks perfect? This is my shower curtain dilemma. There was only one solution...

Buy them both, hang them, and return the one that doesn't work. I wonder which one it will be...

I know, its ridiculous. This is only the first room I am working on. I'm going to have to buy some Tylenol pm when I pick up those towel hooks...or bars...

and it never stops.
