The living room isn't quite ready to be shown off yet, but I did want to show you something cool.

I am painting the radiators like I did in the bathroom - from a dull uneven silver to glossy bright white. Look at what we found behind one of them (after spending 45 minutes poking through the slots with the handles of wooden spoons):

We'll probably frame some of this stuff and hang it in here. 

This little bit of wallpaper reminds me of some we had in the house I grew up in, same colors.

Did I ever squeal when I pulled these out:

A hoodsie spoon wrapper! Someone's life insurance policy bill: One dollar a month!

Photographs!

( Did you notice that I am experimenting with  my backgrounds ?)

A few more bits:

The crucifix pouch was empty, unfortunately. 

But check this out:

A scrap of a girlie mag!

Got ready for work yesterday, and when I walked into the living room, I realized that my sweater was the exact shade of the new paint color.

Sorry for the blur, but it was the only picture I liked enough to show you. (Yeah honey, I know, it's a little forehead-y.) Sweater hoodie from Old Navy - gift from my Honey for Valentine's Day. 

I am a little self-conscious about showing pictures of myself, so be gentle.
