Gray Wednesday

Gray Paint is over taking my life so now its taking over my Wordless Wednesday! 

.

Christmas!

Happy Monday oh wait what day is it?

Its 9am and I have convinced myself its Monday! 

BUT its the best feeling in the world to realize its Tuesday :) 

Lets be honest I am sleep deprived today - I hate insomnia! 

But since I couldnt sleep I decorated my house for Christmas in my head! 

Is that weird???

Did everyone have a nice LONNNGGG weekend??

I am happy to admit that my car diagnoses was WRONG! Still had a few minor things done but it wasn't the big ordeal that I thought it would be! I am happy to admit that I was wrong on this one!

My weekend was not what I planned! 

I did a little flower planting, a little pool time, none of the house projects that I wanted,  A little trip to Emergency Room and a lot of napping. 

I wont get into a lot of the boring details of my trip to the ER but let me tell you Bad Dehydration, Migraine, Cramps and sunburn are not a good mix at all!  

SO onto paint!
I am having a gray paint dilemma! 

I wish you could see my room - the walls look like a big gray patch work quilt! 

Every single paint sample I try looks either blue or purple and it is making me CRAZY! 

First up was the mindful grey

Nope mine looks as blue as blue can be! 

Next up was...

Comfort Grey! 

Nope again it was blue!!!!!!!!

So everyone on the web swore that Repose Grey was the best grey around !

Everyone on the web needs to come to my house and see the best grey around! ITS PURPLE!!! 


So on my way home I am stopping to get Benjamin Moore Coventry Grey and Cape May Cobblestone and try these! 






I am quickly loosing hope with this! 
Why does there have to be so many shades of Grey (So many things I could say here... I Miss Christian Grey in my life)! 
Any help with Grey paint would be much appreciated! 

WEEEEEEE

Good Friday morning to you! 

Its bright and early and sunny and Hot, perfect pool weather to me! 

I am not in the office this morning but setting up office at the car place. 

Dont be jealous! 

I have to get the good ole transmission looked at :( THANK GOODNESS for a warrenty! 

You see I am a self diagnoser so I am 99% sure its my transmission!

I self diagnose when I am sick and honestly I am usually correct! 

So I have self diagnosed by car issues (thank goodness for Google)  as well - my car guy just rolls his eyes.

So I wait and see if I am right -I feel it takes some of the sting out of how much money I owe when its all over!  

I found out last night that there is an actual Christian Grey at Baptist hospital here in Nashville! 

Can you imagine?

I bet he never DREAMED his name would make all women swoon! 

My coffee addiction is is getting better because I have been falling in love with Soy Latte's! 

YUM! 

I am thinking about removing Dairy from diet??

I always feel sluggish after eating anything dairy but MAN I will miss my cheese! 

Have I shared with you I am growing my hair out??

I have had a BOB like haircut for awhile now and it is just time to grow it out! 

Me and Biotin have become close friends! 

I love this look and cant wait to sport it...

 I am making this this weekend for my spare room! 

I bought this...

for my basement! 

My basement is not my favorite part of my house BUT I appreciate the storage. 

I have CONVINCED myself there are bugs down there so just in case I am going to FOG them! 

Hopefully I can figure out how to use this thing! 

I really feel like I need to kill all the bugs that I dont see down there :) 

Ok Friends have a great and SAFE Memorial Day weekend! 

See ya or rather Talk to you Monday! 

Wordless Wednesday...

Monday, Can I get a Do Over???

Its Monday....

I overslept, I am drinking office coffee and I think I have a headache.
My brother called me at 11pm last night - I am old I was already asleep - to ask me about an iPhone cover and I could not go back to sleep! 

Not off to a great start but I have faith today will get better.


I did have a good Healthy breakfast and I have a healthy lunch so that is positive!
I have adding this to my morning smoothies....

I am undecided at this point if I love it! Its extra vitamins so it cant be to bad....


So here is my weekend in iPhone pictures....


I went to Home Depot and I bought all these things by myself AND I planted them all by myself! 
If you know me you know this is a big deal!

This finished product! 

I got some herbs as well and I got them planted...

During this process is when I came across the lovely MASSIVE snake skin right by the deck! 
I dropped everything and went back to Home Depot and bought 3 boxes of Moth Balls! 
I threw them all over the yard, around the deck and in the garage to be safe! 
My yard STINKS but hopefully snake free! 
I hope they choke on the stink because I know I sure do! 


So last night  I looked at the mountain of ironing that needed to be done. 
And decided to make this instead...

I made the Southern Caramel cake! 

Anything to not iron! 
I brought it to work today and we will see what everyone thinks! 


So I have a random question for you! 
I need Garage Doors in the worst way (you can see one in the above picture)! 
Do I go to Lowes or go Custom???
Any suggestions? This is my first time in the Garage Door world and I am just not sure what to do! 
Lowes came in and put in my dishwasher and it was a disaster so I am not sure what to do! 
Any advice????

Its OK

Here we are at the "Almost" end of another week! 

I am going on the second night of NO sleep and I am struggling this morning! 

Next week there are big changes coming to my life - health wise, exercise wise, stress wise! I will be doing a major haul from my pantry and a MAJOR trip to the grocery! Nothing but good things will come from these things!  

Enough of that so on with my Its OK post.....

Its OK that I want  rearrange just about ever room in my house. I am talking like move my bedroom to where the guest room is now, the office to my bedroom now  and the spare room now to my office! Am I crazy????

Its OK that I have been putting off getting an oil change because I dont want to get up at 6am on a Saturday to take it in.

Its OK that a girl I work with pointed out that a guy we work with sounds just like Bill Clinton when he talks and now when I hear him I cant not crack up! 

Its OK that I fall more in love with Annie Sloan paint each day! It makes me feel like I can do any craft project that Pinterest throws at me! 

Its OK that I have convinced myself that I can go buy pine straw and put it out without my brother! 

This will come back to haunt me, I know it will! 

Its OK that I feel a sense of pride that I didnt kill my ferns :) 

Its OK that I have to look away every time the Greys Anatomy preview comes on! 

I cant handle that! 

I mean who doesnt love a picture of Dr.McDreamy

Its OK that I have become obsessed with making this my room and that I have posted this picture at least 4 times on my blog! 

The Happy....

We had a girls night last night and it was just great!
