So I found the paint and I love the new look. I had a great day painting and was done with all the walls by 2:30p.m. but I didn’t finish everything until 5:30. I had to repaint the chandelier in the kitchen hanging over the sink. I also had to repaint the inside of my…
My new couch arrived and……..
As I write this I am waiting for the delivery men to arrive. I was just making a quick dash to the market as I thought I still had 40 minutes but they just called and said they would be here earlier. YAY!!! I am so excited. I kept my promise to Trinity and haven’t…
A gift for one of my readers!
I was contacted by a very special company who sells 1000’s of beautiful products created by artisans around the globe. Novica.com sent me a gift certificate for $75 to their website for me to use how ever I chose in exchange for writing about their amazing website. Instead of using it for myself I decided…
Is a cold life threatening for Tiara?
This is the question Trinity asked me on Friday afternoon after I told her I had taken Tiara to the doctor’s earlier in the day because she was coming down with a cold. The way she phrased this question really struck me. How many 11 year old’s would use the phrase “life threatening”? It…

Be prepared to be disgusted as you see what is in my purse. Just know that I have been putting off cleaning my purse for at least 2 months. I can’t even believe I am admitting this. I was raised to keep your purse clean and change it often to match your outfits. Clearly I…
Wordless Wednesday strikes again…
This is Tiara and I in our matching outfits getting ready to go for our morning walk today. It was freezing out, so we really had to bundle up! I mean freezing for Southern California, 40 something degrees. Under her sweater she is wearing the same striped thermal as me. I love to do…
One of those days….
If you are anything like me, you wake up before your alarms goes off every morning. I always set my alarm, just in case, but 98% of the time I am awake before it beeps, but not this morning. I heard it, jumped out of bed and realized everyone else was still asleep too. Oh…
The couch saga continues…..
If you have been reading my blog for a year, you know about my couch saga but for everyone else and those who have forgotten all the gory details, let me catch you up. Two years ago I bought a white leather sectional from Macy’s after much deliberation. I mean I obsessed over getting the…
