so i don't know how to show y'all...

these adorable beach houses on country living b/c they are in the flash pic slide show thing....i suck when it comes to understanding the ends and outs of computers but if you are interested in seeing some great beach houses check these out....both the FL one and the laid back beach house are totally my style...and they are completely different....i adore the vintage finds like the coffee table and DR chairs in the FL home and i love the DR and pic w/ the tortoise shell in the laid back home...sorry i can't post the pics....

* the pic above has no relevance to the houses i am talking about...it is just the only pic i could get off of country living...but its real cute! love the adirondack chairs...

rise and shine....

i use to think my mom was crazy b/c she woke up at 5:30 in the AM....now i am that person. for the past week, i have been waking up at 5:48 randomly. and once my eyes open, my mind starts racing...it's crazy. i look at the clock, then at warren, then try and close my eyes and think happy thoughts like you have a whole hour to sleep uninterrupted (gosh, that use to be the best feeling...waking up and then discovering that you still had time to sleep before heading off to school or work). but my mind has another agenda...things to do. its like my to-do list is running thru my head. i'm not stressed out; if anything i am excited. i actually love my job and what i do.

so there i was in the bed thinking instead of that one hour of sleep that i use to long for, how nice it would be to get up and have an hour of peace and quite without interruptions...coffee, internet searching, doing my blog, starting my "to-do list"...and so here i am- great cup of coffee, 10 yr old faded sorority shirt, hair in a half bun/ ponytail, zit cream still plastered on my face, eyes barely open, and huge grin on my face b/c i have 30 minutes just to myself.....
