Last post...

I won't be posting on this blog anymore...
As many of you know, I'm an interior designer. & for a while I've been doing research on how to get clients in this economy. 
I've been advertising my home based little business & thank the heavens I've been able to get some clients. 
I made a website a while ago, but I don't really know how to use it, so it's pointless to have it.
I made a "Design blog" where people & prospective clients can see some of my work, my style, things I like & my personal life. I'm trying a more personable approach.
With that said, my new blog is zairabenson.blogspot.com . I'm still going to post about my personal life but I'm going focus more on design.
 
So if you're interested on my life and design.. Follow me!!

Zach has been SOOO busy. He usually wakes up at 6:30 am and leaves for school at 7:15, comes home at 6:00 pm or 7:00pm we have dinner and he studies till 1:00 am. Sometimes he comes to bed at midnight.
It seriously breaks my heart to see him work so hard with little to no sleep & love it when he actually gets to do something other than study, like when he plays madden, when he plays sports with his friends or when he watches football. 

What do I do when Zach is studying? Well, I get to enjoy my day with my friends or I do laundry. I don't know why but I LOVE doing laundry.
I finally got a job, so I'm excited about that AND I also started advertising for my business finally!!! I feel pretty productive now days.
Now we only have 3 3/4 years left, well more than that. But the count down has begun.

Med school is fun


At least it is for me. The boys had a football game today. I don't know if they had fun. They have a lot to study today and the game just took away some time to study. But it was really fun for me. I got to go watch the game, take pictures and hang out with my friends.


The only thing I didn't like about Zach playing today is that I didn't get to spend any time with him today. He left at 7:00 am got home at 8:30 pm and he went straight to his office to study...
 I really hope I get to spend time with him this weekend...

Basil

My friend Kendall showed up at my house the other day with this beatiful pot of basil. I LOVE, love, love basil. But I never buy it because it's too expensive. I seriously almost got a little teary eyed. That was so nice of her...


 
I couldn't wait to use it, so I made some pesto



 
Rosted tomatoes


pasta. & this is what I got.


 
It was delicious! you can get the recipe here.

Interior Decorating

Alright, so here's the deal. I'm an Interior Designer.. I just graduated & moved to a city where the economy is baaaadd! I can't find a job. I really need one, so I'm looking for anything at this point, but I don't want to give up inerior design so I'm starting my own little business. Nothing fancy, just interior decorating.
I know the market is bad right now, but it's woth the shot.
I'm doing what I can to advertise. I ordered business cards & I can't wait to get to start handing them out. (if you need business cards go to vistaprint.com. You can get them for free!)

I also have a website zairabenson.weebly.com. & since I'm just starting my prices are really low.
If you need help putting a room together, picking out furniture, decorating a wall,  choosing a paint color or anything related to interior decorating I can help :) you can contact me from my website or via email zairabenson@gmail.com
I'm doing work in Reno &  Las Vegas!

I want to post more pictures on my website... so If you're interested I will help you decorate for free if you let me take pictures !


Some people have asked me to post pictures of my house. Here is a little preview. This is my living room.
