Some of my beachy things...

We close on Friday at the beach house (those of you who know me know all about this, so I won't elaborate). I wanted to post a few of my favorite things we're gonna take. I had this make-up table since we lived in our apartment, circa 1984 or '85. It's been here and there through the years, but mostly found it's home in our attic. Joe painted it a rather beachy color to brighten things up! I fell in love with it all over again; I think it looks great and I can't wait to put it in our bedroom. I'd love to find a cute little stool or funky fun chair to go with it! I want all beachy colors down there: aquas, blues, light greens, corals, pinks... Yep, it's gonna look like a beach house if it kills me! I found the lamp at Marshall's - a great find with Mother of Pearl, that I thought would look great in the living room.

I'll surely post after next weekend; after the weekend of cleaning, and cleaning, some more cleaning, and perhaps a dinner or two... This my friends, is more than any wildest dream I've ever had... I'm one lucky girl...who grew up in a row home in Steelton, shared one very small bedroom with my two sisters, and wouldn't change it for the world...

Heather...

I took a picture of this so that you could fully understand what I'm dealing with! The other night, I pushed Mack off the bed three times - he came back up each and every time. He beat me down... It's hard time in my house between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Some mornings, when the alarm goes off, I'm actually looking forward to getting out of that bed! Joe says that he's going to build a Greyhound Bed, just for you know who... Do you think he'll sleep in it???

Chaos...

This is not like me to be surrounded by piles and piles of clutter and things that need to be organized, filed, clipped, scrapbooked, etc... But, look at all of these piles that I've been looking at for about six months! Today folks, it all stops!!!!!!!!! I pledge to work for at least 1/2 hour or 45 mins. every night until my life returns to the clutter-free zone that I'm used to! I keep adding to the piles, instead of working on them, and today I couldn't take it another minute! I figured if I blogged about it and memorialized it in photographs, I'd have to tackle it.

I think I'll work for a 1/2 hour or so right now, hmmmmm, ok, maybe 15 mins. on the small pile. How's that for procrastination? Ha~~~~~~~~~~~

Have a GREAT week, and work on your clutter...

This is the funniest one yet...

This is uncomfortable...really.
