As a general rule I hate fans, most of them are just plain 'ole ugly. Ugly ceiling fans, ugly table top fans, ugly floor fans, you name it, yeah we have it. Why? Because we're cheap, cheap cheap cheap. That means we don't tend to run the air conditioner in the summer, we just use our ceiling fan, or our small table top fan in our bedroom.This particular white plastic fan was putting a real kink in...

Mustard. Yes, I think of a big mustard stain when I look at my laundry wall. Not a pretty buttery yellow, just an unfortunate splotch of mustard...I feel this is just too ironic for a laundry room! First on my list of to-do's is a nice coat of paint. I love small rooms, it's a great opportunity to use colors you love but don't want to fill a whole room with. I have admired...

since it's monday, i thought it might be good to start it on the right foot....i'm going to try to do all of the above...only i don't have perfume...maybe jerkins lotion will do....and dressing nicely might be a stretch  since i'm sporting jeans....i'm not really charming either....especially if i haven't had coffee...okay, whatever- it's the thought that counts!!!  happy monday!*images...

"Display what you love most..." I read this in a home decor magazine and it really stuck with me. Instead of trying to create a "look" for your decor, just display the items you love... the things that most reflect you. Well, I don't know that my fedora collection reflects who I am, but I sure do love them! I wear them with much gusto, whether I pull it off or not! *unabashed gleeful grin* So I opted...

LeHavre was the very first Eurogame I set out to organize.I am usually satisfied with placing pieces in mini craft bags, but setting up this particular game takes as long as the game itself! Well, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but those of you who play LeHavre know exactly what I'm talking about. I have been on the search for the perfect plastics to contain the pieces. Here is what I've come...

the state fair is in town and we are heading their today....taylor has some crazy luck with carni games...last year she won 6 stuffed animals.  speaking of the fair, have y'all ever seen adventureland??  seriously, one of my all time favorite movies.  i could watch it over and over again...

lately, i feel like i have been in a funk...i'm not going to lie.  as a mother that works from home, everyday has started to feel like groundhog day to me.  do y'all ever feel this way?  i feel like i'm on repeat...going through the motions.  this quote speaks to me and makes me want to push myself to do more and break out of my routine (or rather my comfort zone)....

I fear my office space. Seriously, I think my mountain of papers are out to get me. I've decided to take this task one small project at a time, or maybe I'll just leave the boxes of mystery papers on my husbands doorstep with a note and run away (metaphorically speaking of course, as we share a doorstep...). My first project will be to organize my warranties and manuals... well, reorganize since...
