To blog or not to blog that is the question. I suppose I would do so more often but I'm not sure what I'd focus on. At the moment I do not have a computer at home nor do I have the internet-trying to save money you know how it is. Right now I'm trying to focus on getting life in order. I think if I were to continue to do this-even with my 2 readers-I would focus on life in general. Be it food, clothes, diy, exercise or design. I also have to add my own flair to this space. We'll see. One day at a time I suppose.
All in due time.

MIA
No not her-although she's pretty, and rad. More like I've been MIA since April?! Wow. So my man has been on the road as of late and being home alone with the baby and two dogs doesn't really leave me enough time to blog...not that anyone besides my husband and best friend read this, but hey maybe there's an accidental visitor here or there.
I'm going to TRY and post when I can. I have computer issues at home right now but hopefully that will be rectified this week. Not with a swanky new Mac book Pro but with a used PC laptop given to us for free-Hey beggars can't be choosers! I'm hoping to get some DIY's up here sometime soon as well. Money's low but inspiration is not! hah... crickets... Ya so see ya soon.

Calgon Take Me Away
Life's been a little stressful as of late and all I've wanted to do is take a long, hot bath. But guess what?... I can't. Why you ask? Well I've been living without a tub for the past oh 7 years I think. When the hubby and I first moved in together (I moved into his apartment) there was only a shower stall. We moved into the apartment behind us, again no tub. We then moved into our current apartment, no tub. Let me make this clear though when we went to see the apartment they were redoing the bathroom so there wasn't even a shower stall in there. If I had known I may have passed on it. Trying to bathe the baby is a chore also most of the time I take her into the shower with me. Woe is me. I'm purple with envy of those with bathtubs. My SIL claims she can go without one, but let me tell ya you don't what you've got til it's gone. So I went browsing the web searching for some inspiration for my dream bathroom and I stumbled upon this beauty! Le sigh.

How yummy is this bathroom? I'm a sucker for anything Moroccan inspired. Gorgeous. I'll see you in my Calgon dreams beautiful bathroom.

Is Bigger Better?
Apartment Therapy is having their annual Small Cool Contest. I'm in awe. My apartment isn't huge per say but it does lack some usable storage and the rooms are awkward. For instance the living room has two walls with windows, one wall with a doorway. That's it three walls so it makes sofa placement hard. I also admire their ability to edit down to what they love and need. I sometimes want to just rent a trash bin and shovel all my crap into it and start from scratch. Enough of my rambling here's a few from the contest I really liked... so far. I'm sure there will be more. Good luck to all who enter.

whooo arrrre youuuuuu?
I often think of what Absolem asks Alice when I think of interior design and my apartment. My likes run the gammon from bohemian, to mid century modern, to some rustic to all out glam... sigh. So how does one decide when their interests vary so much? Right now a lot is dictated by our budget, which right now is pretty much non-existent, but is leaning towards vintage, ikea and hand me downs... I'd like something more defined. My husband says I'm the worse decision maker, which may be true... no it is true. These are just a few images that really catch my attention.
Mommy's day
Mother's day is fast approaching and since this is my first year as a mommy I thought about what I would like that I never buy for myself. *cough-hint-cough*
Clockwise: "Hue" by Kelly Wearstler, oxidized silver Pandora bracelet with some suggested charms (of which you can find at the Fox Run mall), and or a gift certificate to Acorn Salon
