The things that make me laugh.


This is totally dumb but it made me chuckle today. A chuckle I needed after my depressing post! Does that mean I'm immature for laughing at this? Or better yet, for posting it?
P.S. If you can't read it the sign says "restrooms".
Happy Friday!

It's FFF (Fabulous Fashion Friday)~or NOT

My eyes are heavy.
The exhaustion has hit.
Dark circles have found a home.
"Fashion" means nothing today.
The To Do list is daunting.
My kids miss me.
I miss them.
Today I want to stay home.
Home.
Home.
Home.
Next time I will say no.

Have you ever felt the same?
This will pass and I will forget how I am feeling today. And most likely, because I am me, I will do it all over again. And again. And again. I will learn. Someday I will learn.

For now, I will be grateful for my blessings. I will survive and fulfill my promises. I will appreciate opportunities. And I will take a long, long nap....tomorrow.

Do your best to make your weekend a DELIGHTFUL one! Delightful~I like that word!

P.S. On Memorial Day I think I will eat a big fat hot dog with relish, a whole bag of Salt and Vinegar chips and two desserts! Why not? Sounds delightful!:D

What are you waiting for? Go! Go! Go!

WORK ZONE!

In the wee hours of the morn after the Mom of the palace is completely spent on project doing, WATCH OUT! She just might throw this at your head. When Prince Charming doesn't do as I say lamps go a flyin'.
KIDDING!
Actually, this is what my big butt did as I was diligently using the shop vac at around midnight.
Nothing like burning the midnight oil.
In my next life I shall be so grossly wealthy that I will be able to pay the towns people to do all this crap!
Have a wonderful weekend all. Got to get back to painting the trim~Ooh la fun!
P.S. HERE and HERE are two home decorating blogs that I'm diggin' on. Check 'em out!

A Song For You


I have decided that this is my new song for the summer. I dedicate it to my Prince Charming who makes everyday of my life worth living. Love you!

Download it. It will make you smile!

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

Lucky leather for the wrist. Starting as a trend to support a cause, now they have evolved into being part of the everyday accessory culture. Leather accessories are no longer for the biker chicks people. They are totally appropriate for all us carpool moms. Ranging in all price ranges, brands and colors they are super duper cool! At least I think so!









Love THIS watch. Buy five of this skinny version and stack away. Too hippy~ish for you? No way. Try it.
That's it. It's TRENDY TUESDAY. Get hip with the rest of us.
Buy leather. I dare you!

What's Up?

Bought a crazy owl necklace at Old Navy. Oh my...and have you seen the owl ring at Target? I'm pretty sure it's a must have too!:D
Got a hair chop and fancy highlights. I haven't had my hair this short in forever. Time will tell how it works out for me. For now, feels great! I'm convinced change is ALWAYS good.

Check it out. They're actually getting along for 5 min. My two twerps have been anything but BFF's lately. The craziness of our life is getting the best of all of us.
Who's ready for summer?

And lastly, let me once again apologize for my lack of blogging. Not that my content is all that meaningful. Infact much more meaningless but...It's "that" season. Buried in dance recitals, over-scheduled children, more remodel (repaint, carpet, tile, last of hardwoods laid) shopping, of course;) and loving my BFF aka Prince Charming.
SMILE. LOVE. DANCE!
Happy Monday!
P.S. Did I already tell you I'm painting my house red? I can't wait! Are you scared?

$ and Four Stars

Ooh la la Old Navy. Nice job on the flops this year!











Do you know anyone who still calls them thongs? I heard someone call them that the other day and had to chuckle. That's what they were called in my high school days. Know one knew what "thong" really was!

It's Trendy Tuesday...Do You Dare?

I admit it. I am not on the constant upity up when it comes to the latest and greatest trends. However, hasn't this (toe rings) trend already made it's debut and deserves another 10yrs in the closet before it's aloud to make a come back? Hey, I had one and wore it proudly. Like 8 years ago (give or take)!

Thoughts anyone?
Are these still cool? Why am I still seeing them?
How sweet. Maybe these are like BFF toe rings!?
Jewelry for the feet...I'm over it. Are you?
P.S. Those are some freakishly long toe nails. They're totally Lee Press~Ons for the toes!

Lately...

Lately I have been down.

Lately pride has found me.

Lately I have been wanting.

Lately I have been selfish.

Lately I have forgotten the little things.

Lately I have lost balance.

Lately I have wondered what my purpose is.

Lately...shame on me.

If you haven't seen this take a moment out of your day to watch. It turned my lately's around. May it put all of our "lately's" into perspective. Reflect. Appreciate. Enjoy!




Happy Mother's Day to you.

Here's a trend. A free house! I dare!



Perfect front porch

Barn doors on the back. Love it!

Dream kitchen


Want that chair!

I'd sleep tight here.

Laundry would be fun to do in this room. Okay, maybe not.

The 2010 HGTV "Green" home. Want it? Me too! Maybe one of us will get lucky. Click HERE to learn more.
You'll have to excuse me. My brain is on home improvement mode. We're on to like phase 42 of our remodel. Waiting on carpet now. You know you're old when new carpet excites you.
P.S. You know how I just painted my living room bird nest blue. Ya, well...I'm over it. Already! Hmm...what color next?
