This week...in pictures

Where have I been?
Cleaning house.
Spring cleaning.
Wishful cleaning.
And pulling weeds.
I am in a weird mood actually.
I think I am just tired. I haven't felt great all week.
I have alot going on and I think I am just a tad rundownoverwhelmedandsupertired.
Look...at least my kitchen is clean.
Aren't those window coverings horrendous?
They were here when we moved in 5 years ago.
I hate them...but I hate more the holes that are probably in the walls anchoring them up lol.
I also managed to toss half of what was in the playroom.

It is literally just seconds before THEY notice.
I am not a good liar either.
I am too tired to lie.  So they ask...and I tell them "uh...gone".
They don't know what to do with that info. Ha.
What a mean mom.
I also tossed alot from their rooms.
I tell you...I was on a cleaning MISSION.

Isn't that the best bed?  Tempurpedic mattress as well.
No wonder she sleeps so well.
 

Bet you didn't think you would get a tour today did ya?
Well since I am on a roll.
Here is my greatest idea ever.  I took out the sliding closet doors that come in all 
Arizona track homes and hung up curtains.

I did it in both of their rooms.
Cute huh?  You totally wanna do it now don't you?
Alright.  Enough of the tour. 
Really...not sure why I started posting that.
I told you I was feeling strange.
Hmm...ok..here is something I find very cool.
I love all the funky collaborations major designers are doing with major labels. 
If only I was a cool hippie surfer chick living somewhere cool and hippie I would be ALL

I love those colors. Very beachy and soothing no?
I wanna be that chick.
I'm not though.
But...here is a hair update...even though most of you told me not to do the bangs thing.
I got talked into it again.
New hair girl...and she was very cute and funky and she gave me a
REALLY good hair cut.
Look...I am even wearing one of my own shirts!
Well.  This blog post has been a whole lot of nothing hasn't it.
Since that seems to be my theme today...I will leave you with a couple pics of our flat Stanley project
that my nephew Bennett from Calgary sent us.
Flat Stanley was supposed to have a vacation in the Desert and we were to document it.
First Stanley bounced on the trampoline.
 Then girls made him some clothes.
He seems to be a little clumsy though as he was hiking and fell into a cactus.
Then Stanley wanted to lay by the pool.

Apparently Stanley need a little sunscreen because he got a little burnt.

No worries.  He is fine...all tucked into bed and ready for more fun tomorrow.
Bunny slippers and all.
Ciao.
Wonder what obscure stuff I will post tomorrow.
I promise to get back to regular posting.
It was a super long week but I have control of it and I am back now!
