So last April I saw this featured in DIY magazine {borrowed from my cousin at her family’s beach house…I remember clearly sitting on the patio and reading it} and I haven’t been able to get the image out of my head.

Nope, I didn’t forget, just was a little wrapped up with other stuff. I’m craving something cheerful and for someone who isn’t the hugest fan of pink…well there sure is a lot of pink in this design. I love the girly floral paired with bold graphic designs. AND I can’t believe that table is $69 […]

Friendships can be challenging
I am finally willing to admit that my stress level has exceeded what is healthy {I am crying pretty much at the drop of a hat}
It doesn’t matter how old you are, sometimes when you’re sick you just want your mom

Gearing up for a stressful work week with some pretty long hours. To cheer myself up I bought some yummy cheese, a bottle of wine, and some gorgeous flowers. Random goodness to follow.

It’s a good thing I like to write…I woke up this morning and my tongue is…swollen for lack of a better word. Hard to eat, talk, etc. Good times.
