Bathroom Update and a New “Pin’s I’ve Tried” Pinterest Board

Navy Blue Bathroom

The demo on our master bathroom started yesterday, and I foresee many hours being dedicated to it's completion. I am hoping to be able to get a few posts written during the next few weeks, but just in case I don't, don't worry - I haven't fallen into the hole in the floor that used to be my bath tub!  I'm still busy pinning like crazy - especially bathroom pins. Oh, by the way, sorry about clogging up your pinterest feed with them all. But, I am loving how easy it has been to gather ideas for … [Read more...]

Road trip check-in

002.jpg

My little family is currently on the road, visiting some of the most interesting places in the US. Well, interesting to us, anyway. So far, we've stopped in Orlando, New Orleans, Amarillo, Flagstaff, Grand Canyon, Roswell, and Memphis. We are heading out to see a little of Memphis today, and then heading to North Carolina and finally, Atlanta, before heading home. We are so very lucky to have my sister and her family staying with our small zoo at home while we are gone, but we are seriously … [Read more...]

Things I do when I’m not pinning…

RW bw face

There are few things I love more than seeing old friends, but seeing them AND their babies together is one of them! Last week, I was able to do just that. Oh it was fabulous! And now, because I like to share my favorite things on here, here are a few pictures of their little princess! I hope you don't mind that I highjacked my own blog to bring you insane amounts of cuteness, but it couldn't be helped! Thanks for stopping by! Eliesa … [Read more...]

Holiday Hookers

Scrooge

This year, I've been having a hard time getting into the Christmas Spirit. In fact, I've kind of felt like him... I could bore you with the details of why, but I won't because I realize what a dope I am for sweating the small stuff. But, the other day I was on Facebook and saw a post from one of my favorite blogs, Rants From Mommyland, that included the word "Hooker". It had to be good... they are fricking hysterical. I clicked on it. (You can click on this, and read it … [Read more...]

My Week of Thanksgiving

Give Thanks

It's been quiet here for the last few days because I was getting ready to host Thanksgiving at our house, and then recovering from the event for two days. Every year, I think it should be easier since I've done it so many times now, but in reality, it's always a crazy flurry of activity until the day arrives. Then in ten minutes, dinner is eaten, and all that is left is the mess and the memories. This year, in true Addict fashion, I did quite a bit of experimenting with pins for the occasion. … [Read more...]

This crazy weekend

The old living room furniture...

Don't get excited by the title, it wasn't crazy in a Girls Gone Wild kind of way, but as-in an insanely busy weekend! I started the weekend off by posting a bunch of furniture and home goods on Craigslist. I've been tripping over all the stuff that was in the old house that doesn't fit in the new house. The husband was getting irritated that everything was all over, and to be honest, it was getting on my nerves too. So onto Craigslist it went. Framed art, vases, mirrors, lamps, curtains, etc. … [Read more...]

Thrifty Thursday… errr, I mean Thrifty Friday!

Bedside Table

My favorite thrift store, Faith Farm, had a huge sale this weekend in honor of Veteran's Day. I showed up at opening time, 9 am, and there was a line already all the way down the length of the building. People looking for a bargain always know when the big sales are and everyone showed up to the game! People were running the back of the store, where the pre-loved furniture is kept. By the time I got back there, approximately 9:05, there were SOLD stickers everywhere! I was on the lookout for two … [Read more...]
