Every Day is a Good Day to Love

Every time I visit the grocery store over the past couple of weeks, it has been [aggressively] whispering in my ear, reminding me of two things that are fast approaching:  the Superbowl, and Valentine's Day.
Honestly, I don't care about either... But the coming of Valentine's Day made me feel like I could share something that I don't normally share with people.
I've always felt that you should share your love with your loved ones every day, not just go all-out one day of the year.  Small things, big things, I just think random acts of love and kindness are the way to a happier life, as well as overall better relationships with your loved ones.

That being said, let me introduce you to my bath crayons!


These little guys are awesome.  
Yeah, yeah... I know, I'm an adult... So why don't I act like it?
Let me show you what me and Tim use them for, though.


Sorry for the weird shadows--my bathroom lighting isn't the best when it comes to trying to photograph things in the bathtub.  Who'd have thought?


You can kind of guess which ones I made and which ones Tim made...



And I apologize for the smudging.  Some of these have been up in the shower for months now!  After awhile they start getting kind of drippy, if you like hot showers as much as I do.




Well, there it is.  Every time a new one sprouts up on the tiles, my heart skips a beat.  No lie.  
I love that I'm with someone who's as cheesy and weird as I am...


How about you guys?  How do you randomly express your love to your significant others, partners, families, children, etc?  I'd love to hear!

This Blog

I've tried multiple times to create blogs, but I always forget that they exist.  However... I've really been wanting to document the things I do and have done with my apartments over the past few years since I left my parents' houses (yes, you read that right--no, my parents are not rich, they're just divorced).

I've taken an interest in DIY and home improvement blogs over the past year and a half or so, and while I don't intend of becoming as popular as many of the blogs I read, I do intend on setting out to do the thing most of them set out to do, and that's really just to document things so that later on down the line, they can go back and see that things have changed a lot (or maybe not at all).  I like that.  I think it's nice to be able to keep tabs on what you've done for yourself and others.

Enough about that, though... Just for my own memory's sake, I'm going to list the things I'd like to do/show on this blog over the next couple of weeks, and hopefully I'll follow up!

•Post current pictures of the current apartment
•Talk about recent DIY endeavors
•Things that inspire me

...I can't really think of anything else that seemed imperative to me right now, but I'm sure it'll occur to me later.  Either way, the list is for myself, so I'm the only one suffering, right?  Hah.

Anyway, wish me luck!
