Because tonight seems to be a tell everyone my plans night, and also I finally finished this thing after Photoshop decided to start crashing at the last hurdle. Idk man. Computer keeps thinking it doesn't have enough RAM, when it has 16GB to use and is only using, like, ten of them. Seriously, Penguin, your spare RAM is almost twice as much as I have at work in total so don't give me that. Anyway.

( GARDEN PLAN )

Grand totals, so I can look this up again easily when we're at the garden places on Saturday:

Cyclamen: 35 purple, 30 deep magenta, 34 red, 16 pink, 18 pale pink, 29 white (I have a white one already! One down...)
14 spiderwort
15 pilea
18 fittonia
6 maidenhair fern
6 lemon button fern (I have one of them, too!)
4 spiderplant (of which I already own one and Mum has plenty she's willing to donate)

I bought my new toys 8D End of financial year sales and also bargaining got the whole lot together for a bit under $3500, which is significantly under my 4-5k budget, so thanks Hardly Normal. Speakers are in white! Cos I'm so over black electronics and I'm almost more about aesthetics than functionality. Almost. But these are Sony so they'll function beautifully, too. Kinda want a Sony telly as well, but can't really justify the extra 1-2 grand at the moment. So Hisense it is. I know I said I'd be doing everything room-by-room and that I'd finish the garden before I moved onto the living/dining, but end of financial year sales! And they're WHITE! And barely any of the things available anywhere in Australia! Hardly Normal don't technically have them in white, but the girl I called today got some off of Sony, aww. Obnoxious advertising and useless sales people aside, I'm coming to like them. They are good at price matching and finding stuff for you.

... It's at this point I realise I don't have proper photos of my living room. Oh well. ( Grand plans )

That telly is the smallest screen in the house, bar the laptop, so I never really use it. I drag the couch up to the edge of the wine rack to play Nintendo, which is somewhat inconvenient. So 65" will be fabulous. Grand plan is to wall mount it, then get rid of the buffet masquerading as a tv unit and instead get a glass-fronted cabinet to stick next to the wine rack. Also obviously upgrade all the other furniture, but this is all a slow burn thing. For now, the hard rubbish/came with the house/family donated furniture will do the job. That couch, and the burgundy recliner in the first photo, are so comfortable. I have five styles of kitchen chairs, three styles of couches, nothing matches, and I kind of love it like that. Dad broke one of the matching chairs two weeks ago when putting up the washing line, and I just packed up laughing because who gives a shit if one of the chairs you picked up from the side of the road breaks?
