'Tis the season...

of chaos and disorder.



‘One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries.’ A.A. Milne


It's just chaos lately (you too?)...but it's leading to some new discoveries...

like...


want to teach teenagers how to hang up wet towels?
send them to the laudromat a few times cuz the dryers broken


weeds growing faster than you can pull?
pull a Dorothy...pour boiling water on them (just don't hit your plants!)


can't get the lugnut off to replace your brake pads in your car?
use mom's handy 'heat' tool that she strips paint with to heat it up!
(ok...give that discovery to your husband)


and then there's the biggie....


tripping over signs in your little studio??


steal the dining room!!!!!


goodbye unused room ...hello new studio!!!
It's gonna take some doin' but I'm quite determined...that's usually when I'm at my most dangerous ..lol:)


more on that as it develops!


Three new signs I'm tripping over....





soon to be all in my etsy shop..
the beach sign is my favorite!

And one more thing before I go...


Happy 24th Birthday to my favorite tennis player who's playing in my favorite tennis tournament in my favorite city in the world!!

Rafael Nadal....sexiest tennis player alive (ummm....next to my husband of course!)

ok... I think I better go now!!

Too funny ~ we haven't had a dining room in over a year now. I hung a pretty curtain so no one notices the mess that is "me". Um, and yes I have never really followed tennis, but I may have to start now. Beautiful new signs too.

Paula, I am LOVING all the new signs!

You can come over and dry your towels in my new dryer if you like!

Love,
LuLu♥

Your new signs are gorgeous! I'm still pinching myself over winning your giveaway:)

I was always a big Andre Agassi fan, I saw him play an exhibition game against John McEnroe and they were both hilarious. Now that he retired I don't watch tennis anymore but maybe I'll have to start back up:)
