My daily prayer is for a shift. Please let my mind shift to see me and my world and my potential differently today. To value what I have and what I know with respect and reverence. I leave the house hoping to break my “same brain”. And I do for a little while driving or…
I had hoped that some day I would be known for my event decorating skills. I love how just the right decorations can make you feel like you are somewhere special. Ms. Debbie asked me to decorate the sanctuary for the Summer solstice service and of course I said yes. After doing a search…
This past Saturday, I was hands free and finally painted the Wee Fi’s room. Not all the woodwork yet, but the ceiling and the walls with the Toasted Oat as I said I would. I finished priming the bay windows’ woodwork. But alas, no more time to paint the woodwork. The curtain solution is still…
This dilapidated sad old house that we call our home has been around since probably the 1870’s. There’s really nothing modern to it. And there’s plenty of stuff that we still put our hands over our eyes and say “la,la,la” to while we pass by. When we bought it in 2000, it was a lot…
This is the house that Mark and Shalagh bought in 2000. The shutters were that colonial gray-blue color. I fell in love with the brick sidewalk a la Martha Stewart. Mark fell in love with the river front view. I named it Bally Eden. The source of my Eden. But I would then steal that…
Yes. I know. She’s five months now and we’re just getting around to choosing the paint color? My excuses are good and numerous. Unaware of the gender of the baby we were having, I opted to use my nesting energy to redo Eamon’s room one last time before he goes to college ten years from…
I was aware that the plein air festival was going down in Easton as it does every July. I’d seen some of the artists out painting as I visited Moonvine. When I got wind that Sunday was a kids classes day, I took the opportunity to create a field trip with my little artists,Eamon and…
I am a secret style stalker. For years I watch shows, look at magazines, and fiddle with my own interiors, dreaming of my own spaces to play in. Although a friend and I agreed, blogs are for saying, “Look what I did !” , I was gathering the confidence to show you. Because, when you…
Just like last time I was pregnant, I got this crazy notion to get jiggy with painting the kid’s room. Eight years ago, not knowing the gender of our first-born, I painted a green background with cream vertical stripes and hand painted ribbons cascading down in fuchsia, purple, orange, and aqua. My husband said, if…
It’s Monday and the “To Do” list is about to take on biblical proportions. There were those items that weren’t quite completed from last week. And many more to-dos were spawned over the weekend. I did manage to mow the lawn (not on the list) and relaxed (mandatory). Why does this beast perplex me so?…
