And the Obsession Continues...

Seriously, I am obsessed and I don't know why...

With a paint color...

If you saw my Pinterest board for our future home, you might say I need an intervention.

But that's why it's a private board.. I don't want anyone to really see the extent of my craziness.

But... If there's one thing that I'll give away, it is that there will be a room in my house this color.

Possibly multiple rooms.

Or I may be over this color when the time comes.

I sure hope that's not the case.

Allow me to introduce to you, Benjamin Moore's Palladian Blue

Fantastic.
That is all.

O, Hail No!

Yesterday. Yesterday was a good little day, after work and another little incident..

See, when I was leaving work it was getting a little dark out. I knew rain was coming, but I had no idea what else was going to be involved. So, I decided to make a little pit stop at DSW for a little retail therapy... Next thing I know, I felt like I was in a Tim Burton film and gum balls were storming down on us. O, Hail No!!!

Yep, instead of going home and having my cute little car safe in the garage, my stubborn self just had to go shopping and my little car took a beating... as I just stood there... helpless.. watching through the window... and I didn't even see any cute shoes.... O, Hail No.. again!! 

Once I was relieved to find no damage, my first little teensy bit of down time in weeks began. I was showered and in my pj's before 5 o'clock and Kendol was cooking up some dinner! Smoked salmon, asparagus and lipton onion potatoes. Seriously divine. He's the best. 

I also did a little spring cleaning. We can walk in our closet again. Hallelujer!! This was followed by a little more cleaning of the rest of the disaster house. Followed by some wine, a little mani/pedi action and a few hours if being a couch potato.

G-L-O-R-I-O-U-S Y-A-L-L

Glawrious, I tell ya!

1. Mani/Pedi with OPI I'm India Mood for Love

2. My new presh t-shirt came in the mail

3. Just watching my poor little car getting beat to death

4. Our closet has a floor?? Who knew?

O, and you know why today is going to be a good day too?????
This is why!!!
Today's the day!
... and we're having Mexican for supper..
That always makes for a good day.. Duh.

Gone Green

Mississippi has gone green.

Not that kind of green....

I'm talkin' about pollen.

It made it's sneak attack yesterday, y'all

I'll be sick for the next month.

Yay.

Ugh.

But over the weekend, Mississippi was covered in a more fun shade of green.

St. Paddy's Day green.

What a fun day of running around like a wild woman.

And it ended with the sounds of the Chad Wesley Band.

They are awesome.

If they come near you, GO. 

Fitness Friday

This week has flown by and been a super busy one. Perhaps it's all the excitement about the upcoming weekend's festivities? It is St. Paddy's weekend, after all. Which just so happens to be one of the biggest weekends we have around here! This year will be a little different for me, being that I will be working (makin' that money, honey) instead of attending the parade. But no worries, I don't think I will be lacking in the "fun" department since we will be having 3 bands throughout the day. For sure to be good times had by all! Through all of the excitement and business, I have managed to get in a little exercise.. a little's better than none, I say!

Crazy Bag Lady

Who out there seems to collect bags??

All shapes and sizes.... 

Bags upon Bags upon Bags. 

Each one used for a specific purpose..

Guilty and not ashamed one bit.

Well have I got a treat for you, you crazy bag lady you!
