Restlessness Around the House

This morning I took my Insurance Licensing Exam. Passed! w00t! Was pretty uncertain about that test. The questions are super tricky and there's a hellova lot more to know about insurance than one would think! 

I had originally applied for quite a few jobs right after I gave my two weeks notice. I'm starting to slowly hear back from those jobs (I guess the application period is now closing since it's been a couple weeks). Should have a couple interviews this week. Doesn't hurt to see what else is out there. I can easily drop the insurance job if something better comes along. We'll see how the interviews go. 

After the exam, I came home and was really lazy and restless. I watched a few episodes of ridiculous daytime TV (something I don't think I've EVER done). Then I decided to clean the house, and then decided to feng shui the living room. 

Here's what it looked like before -- was sectioned off.

Sectioned off.

This is what I did today. It seems so much more open! 

Lots more space in the middle for the dogs and I really like the way the floor looks. I got too lazy to straighten out the rug. I'll be building a smaller bookshelf tomorrow and probably arrange a little differently as well. 

Tonight, I also decided to do something with the slanted bookshelf sketchy put together last night. It's going to serve as our temporary bar in the mancave. 

Since I was putting the bar area together, I decided to move everything downstairs and set-up for the March Madness Cocktail Party this Saturday. With Kaitlin and James getting into town on Friday I want to have fun and do things with them Fri and Sat and not worry about prepping for party!

The infused liquors

Some mixers, selection of wine and a few new beers to try as well

You can kind of see how the liquors took on the colors of the fruits! They look so good! 

So tomorrow I'm going to go shopping for the rest of the party things and we'll be all set! 

Three days! Exciticus.
