Slacker

Yes I am aware that I am a total slacker…I haven’t posted in two and a half months. But be advised I have plenty of reasons…good or bad there were things that just kept me from getting here like I wanted to.

Life has been a tilt-o-whirl here for the past months. However, everything is coming full circle now. But when things get bumpy, man do they ever get bumpy…kids, husband, marriage, mental well being. So many small things come crashing down, that it becomes something really big.

But today I can say with complete confidence that I am so excited about the direction my life is heading!!

God is good, and He is good all the time. Even when you think everything is rotten, He is there and He is soooooo good!!

I have several posts "in waiting". So I am going to back up the date so they fall in line appropriately!

Part 2

After my fabulous zebra chair redo, I thought I would like a small footstool to use for when I am sitting with my laptop, to prop my feet up. So imagine how psyched I was when I found this little beauty at the Goodwill for all of 2 bucks!! Woo hoo!!

I think it is a match made in Heaven…well at least a perfect match for me and the empty corner of my room :0)

My Zebra Chair


I have had my eye on a cool zebra print chair for my room. I just couldn’t see spending that much money on a chair that was primarily for decoration. So I hit up the thrift shops and looked for a vintage chair to give a make over! I had no luck but imagine my surprise when I raided my very own garage and found this little beauty!!

Let the games begin!
