Weekend Warriors

Hello Darlings!

Here are some bits & pieces of my weekend- it was great.
There was lots of yard work, lots of walks, delicious food, and sleeping in with my kitties.

How was your weekend?
(Seriously! Tell me!)

Skyfall

Husband has been dying to see the newest Bond movie, so here we are. He's watching unwaveringly and I'm writing a blog :)

We spent yesterday painting one of our larger rooms and let's just say Hubs and I will never go into a painting business together. That being said, the room is done- the paint looks good & so does the floor, no messes to be seen :)




We love the Gray, so calming, right??
I feel like the cat tree is an eye sore, but alas, my little Moneypenny needs to be able to see  out since we keep her indoors so much.
Happy decorating!

Connecticut Dreaming

I may have my own place now, which I absolutely love, but sometimes it's still fun to look at obnoxiously large homes- just because, well, they're obnoxiously large. :)

Yesterday after an amazing Week with my Mom and dropping her off at a New York airport, Hubs and I took a drive through a wealthy Town in Connecticut. I snapped several cell phone shots of Homes as we drove by, so please forgive the quality.

But aren't they beautiful?

Friday's Letters: Home Addition

 
 
 
 
Dear House,
You're crooked in so many areas.
Didn't anyone ever tell you to stand up straight?
 
Dear Blue Vase,
I'm sorry that my Husband doesn't like you-
Just know, I did.
 
Dear Round Rug,
The Cats love you.
I'm sorry...
 
Dear Person Who Did the Dry Wall,
....... Really?
 
Dear Bedroom,
Say hello to my little friend, Silver Screen Paint.
 
Dear Entry Way,
I am searching for a BIG "S" to adorn you,
I will find one!

Checking In

Hi Friends!

Sorry for the silence on this lil' blog.
I've felt like my head is going to explode with everything that's been on my mind.



The most interesting to you, will probably be that my Mom is in Town from Michigan.
And that means, home decorating! :)
Today we bought SIX gallons of paint- mostly gray, white, and some blue.
I'm so excited!
Next will be rugs, curtains, and wall art.
I'm sure I'll have some good photos to share in the next post.



I hope you've all been lovely.

151

Broke the 150 followers barrier- thanks guys! :)

Easter feels so different the older I get- do you feel that at all?

When I was little I'd go all out with the lace gloves, poofy dress & the stylin' hats.  These days, I'm lucky if I remember to get a new dress in time for Sunday. 
Overall, the Day was good for us. Blessed to have a good Church Family with excellent cooking skills & In-Laws to honor the Day with.
I am looking forward to just "relaxing" this next Week, though.
No cooking.
No obligations.
Just time with my Hubs & Kitties.



For those of you who read my last post- it has been a really rough couple of days emotionally.
My Sister in Law picked up some mini daffodils for me - and it immediately brought a smile.
Sometimes, it's the little things.




It's actually been feeling like Spring now, yes?
I love it!  It's inspired me to try iced teas from Starbucks instead of iced coffees. A little healthier, at least :) Any favorite drink suggestions that are a bazillion and a half calories?
