this is what i see. gray. wet. rain. cold. now that i am fully aware of how much it costs to heat a home, even our little row, i am completely behind the “put on a sweater” school of thought. the weekends are going by so fast here. and this one was jam-packed. helped someone move. went to festival for a minute…but too hungry to wait in line for funnel cake. ikea. lowes. pier 1. grocery store. and then bam it’s sunday! huh? how? i’m actually one to like the cold wet days, as long as they are out numbered by sun. i can sit inside and not feel guilty that i am putzing around the house. sort of my/our new obsession. this weekend was pictures…we hung lots of pictures. now as anyone that may know me, when i am trying to convey my “creative vision” i am not so good with full-blown descriptions…there may be some nail holes to patch…maybe
we are slowly ridding ourselves of all the blinds. i/we are not fans. i love the crisp, clean white with the gray. our treasures from nicaragua and mexico fit perfectly on this teeny wall. our couch is coming this week (woo hoo!) and then this room may be close to “done”? well the trim needs to be painted and installed in some sections. oh and we need new rugs too. but “done.”
my crafting room/closet is still a horrible pink on three sides. i hate it. a lot. this week we (he) must patch the walls. i (he) need to paint this room. however we did manage to get curtains hung, previously we had leaned a door up against the window. oh we should probably hang that door too…
i love those houses that you walk by and are all the walls are filled with photos. every inch of wall. covered. i could not actually live in a house like that. ever. but i love the idea. here is a start of ours. a mix of mexico, nicaragua, family, us, miami, bahamas, art, new orleans and more. i feel it will grow. change. evolve. and yes this is where many of the trial/error nail holes are hidden. a picture moved an inch to cover one up, but when taken down…
off to frame some more. i/we will try and be better about more updates.





LOOKING GOOD!
