Is it windy?

This is Seamus, showing me how windy it is. He's funny.

Wind swept hair.

I wear the wind swept hair everyday. I rock it. It's my signature look.

(Forehead-smackingly beautiful photo from here, via here.)

Is it over yet?

I don't care for Mother's Day. For reasons I shan't go into. Really - is there any reason I could give you that wouldn't make me sound like an epic bitch? I thought not. Moving on.

I do love and adore these kids of mine and totally dig this amazing drawing that Seamus made of me. The best part is: my hair really does look like that! I have kid-drawing-of-a-mom hair. Enjoy!

Friday, I'm in love....

Enough said. From The Wedding Chicks.

Sun salutation.

Good morning, darlings. You look especially fetching and it's going to be a beautiful day. Unless, of course, your allergies kick in and your eyes swell up to the size of baseballs. That wouldn't be so good. Let's keep our fingers crossed, shall we?

Upholstery!

Okay, so I'm super inspired re-upholster a tired old chair in my living room. And, this is what super inspired looks like around here.....

Spend a day looking at pictures online.

Write a blog post about it.

In about six months, get tired of looking at the old chair and trying to cover the ripped parts with decorative pillows. Start trying to convince handsome husband that, in spite of lacking knowledge or experience, am perfectly capable of re-upholstering a simple chair.

Move the chair to the garage and spend a day taking it apart. Feel rather satisfied with work for about 24 hours.

Choose fabric. It will be expensive. This could take weeks.

This is the point at which I am most likely realize that this task is far from simple and that I am woefully under-qualified to be performing it.

A few more months will pass, during which I have nowhere to park my car and nowhere to sit.

Bring chair to a professional.

Super inspiring photos from Anthropologie, enhabiten (x3), Vintage is for Lovers, Nightwood, and Crate & Barrel.

The very best part is: I'll probably attempt it anyway!

Good morning, glorious day - I could just kiss you!
