Watching the Leaves Change..

As I was walking into my house yesterday after work

I couldn't help but notice that my front porch had been neglected... Badly...

I realized I had been spending so much time on the inside, that the outside looked a little lonely..

.. Okay.. VERY lonely! 

I'm sorry front porch!

(yes I still need to paint my front door) Don't judge!

So I quickly rummaged through all my decorations to find!!!....

nothing.

No Luck..

So I took a quick drive to the one and only

DI

I had gone, just the day before and had No luck, whatsoever in finding anything.

So of course I went into it with.. not the highest hopes.

But as I went up and down each isle.. it wasn't until an older lady looked at my cart and said

"man, You're finding all sorts of treasures!"

looking at my cart my jaw dropped and in reply stated

"ha ha, Yeah... My husband may or may not kill me"

Really though..

Usually I go through my cart at the end of each DI trip and get rid of the things I don't think I'd die without.. but at the end of this DI trip... I couldn't Decide one thing I couldn't live without!

I had:

2: Beautiful White Stools

4: Light covers for my kitchen Chandelier (I needed 5)

1: strip of brown fabric

1: old looking box .. looked way cool!

2: Decor Cups

1 Bundle: of fake wheat and cat tails

1: bag full of pine cones.. (one was gold its so cute)

and

1: long white cute basket!

... so

Sense I couldn't decide on what to get rid of  I called.. Jake

and said

Jess:"Hun, I'm at the DI"

Jake: "oh no, what'd you find?"

Jess:" A Lot of Cute things!"

Jake: " Oh Gosh, What did you find?"

(proceeding to tell him my list)

I couldn't believe my ears!

Jake:" well don't get the light covers we can get new ones at Home Depot"

Jess: "what!? Okay!"

-Light Covers.. Gone

Jake: " K, babe Gotta go, Have fun!"

Jess: " K , love you bye!

After the conversation I decided sense Jake got rid of one thing.. I should too.

Goodbye cute white long basket that would fit perfectly in my future bathroom! I'm sorry I had to leave you behind!

I was happy with my purchases.

and my Ugly, neglected, sad looking porch,

turned into..

THIS!

Before, I had two plain wooden stools I was planning on painting sometime further down the road but when I came across the cute white ones I couldn't pass them up!

I replaced my two plain wooden stools with the two beautiful white ones,

Before throwing the two brown ones in the garage "DUNGEON"

I figured i could use one out on the front porch! It Turned out Great.

Future DI runs to come!!
