Paint colors

So I'm into gray(grey) walls lately and picked out a few samples for the new house...I'd love to hear your thoughts!






These aren't the greatest pics but I'll post more inspiration-ish pics tomorrow :)

Oh and here's an adorable TDF pic to top it off. Great grandparents holding great grandson...

Yoga Go-tos!

yoga go-to's


So I've been totally loving yoga lately.  I'm not very good...although I like to picture myself looking like this:
pretty sure I don't look anything like that though...I mean...do you take your yoga classes on a mountain? Oh, you don't...well you're really missing out. Kidding :)

Hope you all had happy Mondays.  Back tomorrow with a wall color question...

Big day tomorrow...

hubby and I are closing on our house!  I'm so excited...it's like Christmas Eve...not sure I'll be able to sleep.  All I can think about is decorating/paint colors/furniture placement etc.!!!

Here are two pics that I'm fired up to do in the new house:
We'll start with refinishing the wood floors and touching up the white paint (real-life photos coming soon)...also need to decide what we want to put on the walls (and by "we" I mean me, because let's face it...we all know that my opinion is the only one that counts)
Found another lovely example of how fantastic blue/white china looks with hot pink! Can't wait!
Oh, and just for good measure, a photo of something else that will look adorable in our new house:
Lucy!

Fresh start

via Pinterest
I say fresh start because I'm trying to start a new routine this week...the Dr. and hubby say that it will do me good to stick to a 'schedule' of sorts.  I guess that my 'get out of bed after hitting snooze 8 times' and race to leave the  house on time isn't working for them.  

Supposedly I need to limit "stress" and they think that being last minute adds stress.  I feel differently...I mean, I'm sleeping (which means no stress) for longer then just 'hustling' to get ready!  I asked if that meant that I get to get more massages/pedicures and hubby said no...I think that's just what I need though :)

Whatever, I'm a good sport so I'm trying their suggestions out.  Another reason that I'm trying to listen to them is because I'm not allowed to drive, which means that hubby is constantly encouraging me to get up earlier so that he can stick to his schedule and drop me off at work (so he can go wherever he needs to that day). I HATE not being able to drive, so anything that I can do to relieve stress and hopefully eliminate seizures!!! Fingers crossed!

Today was day #1 of this "waking up on time" deal.  It went okay, I will grudgingly admit that it was nice not to have to do my makeup in the car...maybe I'll give this whole thing a try again tomorrow...

What are your best "stress relieving" tactics? (besides working out and wine...i got those covered)

Sneak Peek

Here's my idea for the entryway of the new house...(incorporates a new lamp that I got on consignment for cheap!)
Thoughts?  I posted an inspiration pic on Pinterest (click the button on the sidebar to follow me if you want...no pressure)  As it's getting closer to closing time I'm getting more and more excited to start the renovations...so you'll probably be seeing more home decor photos...hope that's okay :)
