beautiful pillows.

i am suffering from mad chaos in my house right now...i think it would be nice to sit back and relax and focus on the pretty details like accent pillows....all of these are wonderful examples of how beautiful they can make a room feel...*sigh* my house is so not beautiful anymore....

i have been told this a time or two....and i kind of like that about myself. so are you a realist or a dreamer?

let's chat:

man, i love that sheer roman shade...so simple yet it looks amazing and how pretty is it w/ the light shining through....making a mental note in my head of this: great custom window treatment/ doesn't break the bank.

*time out* taylor just woke up crying/ coughing (she needed water, went back to sleep)

i think that hand that palm readers use is awesome. corky yet cool...every house needs a sense of humor.

hello jewelry box: please enter my house while i am sleeping....i promise i won't be mad. i can even tell you where our spare key is.

mary, mary, mary- that wallpaper, those lacquer lamp shades.....how i love the (and leontine linens, that's a given).

thanks for the chat...off to eat a halloween cookie....want one?

the power of pink.

october is the month to raise awareness. a year ago i thought i found a lump...so did the the doctor. thankfully, it was not cancer. have you been checked lately? if not, you should.

on a lighter note- we got a new alarm clock...warren tested it out this AM by waking up extremely early. maybe the early bird does catch the worm...at least that is what he told me when he walked out of the door.

it's friday....

on a regular basis, you will find me casual: tank tops, shorts, tunics, jeans, gold sandals, flip flops (we live at the beach, rainbows are a must), and big earrings -i know, they really don't fit in this category but i always wear them or a big bracelet. but i think i would look killer in those heels...i mean what girl wouldn't want to wear those?!! i'll even ditch my rainbows to put those on....ha!

have a great weekend...
