I don’t think I would be lying when I saw picking a gray paint was pure agony. I mean…I almost felt stupid. Because I was struggling so much. When you have a vision in your head – but you can’t make it happen, it’s so frustrating. I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I saw I…
Halloween Coloring Pages
Here’s another Mom confessional: Coloring pages are also like cheap therapy to me. Can I get an amen??? If my kids are arguing, ha ~ when are they not??? I search for the latest character that they like & print a few out along with some others. No video games, no tv, just some good…
Paint colors for the Living Room, Dining and Foyer
Have I ever mentioned I used to sell lipstick for a living? Well, lipstick and a few other cosmetics items. Fresh out of college, I became an Elizabeth Arden Cosmetic counter girl.

Fashion, Fruit and Fiber
This sponsored post is a follow up from my Fiber Choice Challenge that I started a few weeks ago. I know not many people want to talk about Fiber. I get it, really I do! But like I mentioned before, I’m in my mid 40’s. Life happens…you get older…weight starts to “stay” and metabolism starts…
Classic Flooring to update your Home
This post is sponsored by Build Direct. As you all know we bought a house. A foreclosure to be exact. After waiting what seemed like forever (because I’m the most impatient person there ever was) and due to title disputes we finally signed the dotted line & that very same day we went to work…

Chevron and Posie Fall Wreath + a Blog Hop
I tend to get a little giddy when I see that Fall is fast approaching on the calendar. I immediately start craving texture, comfort food (well, I always crave that!), rich colors, layers of leopard + stripes + chevron + chambray (denim shirts), football, patchwork quilts, bolder lipstick colors, Fall festivals and yes, even some…
