    hair, originally uploaded by so_ill_drink_some_more.

    I love braids..and wish my hair were long enough to wear them.
    This hairstyle is simply pretty!

  • I love clean lines.  So this first photo of an Apartment Therapy house tour had me so happy. I love the whole apartment – which you can see here.

  • It is late Saturday night…technically Sunday morning. I began catching up on blogs after some friends left (we spent the evening watching House episodes, playing games on my new iPod Touch, and eating sloppy joes + homemade brownies while laughing uncontrollably).   So once I'm alone, I find this colorful bedroom and begin swooning because my bedroom lacks color and a sense of style.  If I could recreate this room exactly, I'd be a happy camper.

    Bedroom - green - orange - pales

    It's neat and tidy, organized and colorful.  *sigh*

  • Happy Friday to you!!!  Am hobbling around here on a wrenched knee…walking funny for sure…but just grinning and baring it.  wait. that sounds wrong.  grinning anyway!!  Just saw on Apartment Therapy– the line of H & M for Home.  The site has 15 looks but I only saved the ones I loved.  Turns out I favor colorful and natural  Here are my favorites:

    H & m for the home 1

    H & m for the home 2

    H & m for the home 3

    I have another blog.  Which I forgot about.  But I remembered it today.  So I wrote on it.  It's about my faith…so it's personal…. you're welcome to read it…or remain here in Pretty Land where stories about my funny niece and nephews frolick amidst trees made of pretty decor photos!

  • HP Printer - closeup

    Have been working late almost every night.  Just too much to do.  Hopefully it'll calm down soon.  Yet am grateful to have a job. 

    Here's my lovely printer that is now printing "cyan" blocks of ink on whatever pages exit the printer.  Turns out it's a fluke in the HP K850 that I didn't know about when I researched printers.  So that's a little fun part to the week I hadn't anticipated.

    Heading to an eye exam tonight so that I can buy more contacts.  Have been wearing this pair (and cleaning them!) for a few months instead of the one month I'm supposed to wear them before tossing them away.

    Hope your night is more exciting than mine!

  • Here is a photo from the latest issue of Bolig Liv. I get the magazine's newsletter and use Google's translate feature to read the Bolig Liv website, but I can't read the text on these photos. Does anyone have access to the Danish magazine Bolig Liv? I'd do a magazine swap from the U.S. for that magazine if anyone's interested.

    I've been a Danny Gokey fan from his first moment on American Idol.  He lives within an hour of me, but naturally, I've never met him.  I'm just now watching Tuesday's American Idol and so I don't know if he made it through.  I'm assuming so since everyone adores Danny Gokey. (He's got one of those names where you have to say both his first and last name together.)

    Rootin' for you!
