We are expecting freezing weather tomorrow night in which I am excited about. I was finally able to start painting the chest of drawers for Jackson. It used to be in Hannah’s room and was a teal color. Jackson wanted me to paint it black so we got the color Black Hearth, because it looked black, sounded black, is not black. Surprise! It’s purple!

This is only the first coat, but it’s dark purple. Luckily, he likes it.

The hardware had turned dark brown, but with a little polish, they shined right up.

Now just a few more coats and it will be ready to go.

I am finally feeling decent today. I was scrolling Tiktok and saw a woman talking about a virus that was going around. She described exactly what my symptoms were and I read the comments and there are a lot of people experiencing the same thing. Fingers crossed I keep feeling better.

The candle I bought at Oktoberfest had a bad wick. I contacted the small business I bought it from and she mailed me a new one immediately. I highly recommend Rockin G Candle Company. Not only top notch customer service, but amazing smelling soy blend candles.

She also threw in some wax melts. How nice was that?

Something definitely died in Donny’s car engine. We tried to bomb the inside but it didn’t touch the awful smell. Y’all, it’s SO bad! We’ve looked everywhere trying to find the source of the sink, but I’ve heard a mouse can climb into the parts we can’t see. We’re going to contact our insurance company and see what they say. I feel so bad for him having to drive it.
