interior design

Before I became a mum I was and still am a massage therapist.
But sometimes I like to pretend that I am an interior designer (not really pretend) and I collect pictures of rooms that inspire me and help me think more creatively.
I don't just want to live in a blank empty boring house.
I want it to be filled with warm colors, meaningful pictures, unique antiques and above all be filled with the sound of children's laughter.
Here are some pics I have found recently on the blog
desire to inspire.

belize, please

The week has just started and there is already magic in the air.
Much different than last week which was too darn silly and made me grumpy!

Last week I had bought chicken only to come home from Tom Thumb (not the Tom Thumb my folks like which has a cozy fireplace and leather chairs yes I know it is a grocery store but it is quite inviting.....) the other Tom Thumb that I go to one town over and I discovered that the chicken had not been put in my grocery bags but was paid for anyway.
Than I found one of my good friends was having emergency surgery and luckily she is doing better but unicorns don't like emergency surgery! Plus this caused a delay in our routine Starbucks visits.
Than I found a darn tick on Wolverine! and I had to dispose of it myself-YUCK not fun.....

So last Friday I put on my favorite lipstick Belize by Prestige Cosmetics and I suddenly felt a whole lot better.
And then I snapped this picture because ....well... I love clouds.

The End.

a happy place

I am proud to be an American. I have always been proud and I always will.

This is because I choose to appreciate what I have and I will continue to work hard to achieve it.

I don't need a certain candidate, campaign, or eloquently written speech to feel good about something.

Words are nice but actions speak louder. I hate to say it but most of the reason this country may feel divided is because certain groups of people like to whine and complain and then attack peoples' character. That is negative energy and serves no purpose.

I would implore all people, all Americans, to feel good about themselves thru their own attributes and not get caught up being associated with a slogan. The only person we can control is ourselves. We alone have the ability to think for ourselves, define what we believe in, and then execute our desired actions.

And speaking of actions a sweet baby I know ate an entire jar of Beech Nut Good Morning Peaches, Oatmeal and Bananas in 2 sittings today! That is what is truly important to me right now. Everything else pales in comparison.

This is undoubtedly the most happy I have ever been in my life.

I am a lucky blessed girl!

I love you Joe and BrockieBooBoo!

God bless us and our lovely country!

god bless america

Today is election day and I won't comment politically but I did vote early so I hade time to do a multitude of exciting activities.

Here is a sampling:

I went for a walk with bebe and saw a heron by the pond.

I drank Cherry Coke Zero-yum!

I fed bebe carrots (the food not the neighborhood bunny I nicknamed "Carrots")

I picked up my professional family portraits and yes one of them made me cry

I talked to my mum on the phone

I kissed my husband

I hugged bebe

I stepped on Wolverine's paw-ouch sorry

I picked out my Christmas cards
