not working

I think Yaritza and I will think of anything to not work sometimes. I am glad my boss is not a blogger! This morning we started checking out baby nurseries. Yaritza started it not me! Yes, I know that I am not pregnant but I could be or I will be. So I have been cruising ratemyspace this morning. Beatiful nurseries. They are amazing. Look at a few of my favs down below.

This is such an adorable nursery. With a house full of boys WHEN I am pregnant and IF it is a girl, I want the room to be girlie!

This rooom has such a simple charm to is. Not overdone.

This one is sooo much fun! the zebra pring is adorable and I love the words over the crib.

this one can defiantly grow with the baby and check out the artwork. Dad's first babies..his dogs!

Oh how I love a good blog

First I would like to mention that I learned how to insert pics and text at the same time. I don't know why I didn't figure it out sooner.

I wanted to share a view of my favorite blogs. Since my laptop is broken I usually email them to myself so I can keep checking them out.
My new fav is Casamacho Her laundry room will become my laundry room check out these great pics

Have you read Just Beachy

I usually save a blog because of a particular room so I just scanned it looking for why I saved it and I love everything on it! Ornaments hanging from the chandelier? Why didn't I think of that?

thenest.com D&R boat is another great source of inspiration. It is amazing how creative normal day people can be :) Check out Our Home Sweet Home

Fabric around a farm table? Why didn't I think of that???



A few other favs from the D&R nesties..KarenandJeff

Deck the Halls

We have decked the hall at our new home. Well if you asked my husband we have but I am still working on it ;) But I love the way our tree looks in our new house. The lights outside are not up yet but they will be. the neighbors have started a war so I was thinking about not putting them up at all just to spite them..hehehe



I think I can do this. Elmers glue and glitter? I have so many candles left for "the wedding" green and red?

I loooove this! who would think that purple would be a christmas color but it look great!

And of course this one...anything nonchristmas christmassy for me! :)

Simple and Easy

Once I figure out what the hell I am going to do with my kitchen this is a great update to the chairs.

Directions from Pottery Barn Style House

recipe one: Dining Chair Cushions & Headboard Covers

YOU'LL NEED:

Screwdriver

Tailor's chalk

ScissorsStaple

GunBatting (optional)

Fabric by the Yard (Five yards is ample for covering six seats or one headboard)

1) Turn chair over and unscrew seat from frame (some seats in older chairs simply pop out). If the padding is in good condition and there's only one layer of fabric over it, proceed to Step 3.

2) If there are multiple layers of fabric, remove all but the last one. If the padding has become flat or lumpy, remove all the fabric and cut a sheet of batting 3 inches bigger than the seat all around.

3) Cut a square of fabric using the seat shape as a guide, but make your fabric 5–6 inches larger on all sides. Lay the seat upside–down on the fabric (with the batting layered in between, if you are re–padding).

4) Wrap fabric (and batting, if any) around seat and staple to the bottom, beginning with the front center, then back center, then a center point on each side. As you work, pull the fabric firmly but gently, smoothing out wrinkles and checking the front periodically to be sure the pattern placement is correct.

5) Continue to wrap and staple, from your center points out, stopping about two inches from the corner on each side. Then gather or pleat the fabric at each corner before wrapping and stapling, to ensure smooth, neat coverage.

6) Trim excess fabric, re–attach the cushion to the chair, and have a seat. Tip: Consider pattern placement before you cut your fabric. For instance, you might want a stripe to run down the center of each seat, or you might want some seats to be striped vertically and some horizontally.

My name is Bre and I am addicted to

Real Housewifes of Atlanta

I found this great article on yahoo that fills in some blanks and rumors...It is so awful that my new little addiction is not returning next year.

Kim

We were shocked when Kim claimed to be 29, but the bloggers dug in on this assertion and confirmed with DMV records that she is not a lady who lies about her age. We find that refreshing. However, on-air Kim claims she has been getting Botox treatments for years. Isn't a 29-year-old a little too young for that youth-defying procedure?
The big mystery surrounding Kim is her sugar daddy, Big Poppa. Apparently her main squeeze wants to remain a mystery, but the bloggers can't get enough of this story and have uncovered his identity: He is a married commercial real estate developer, well known throughout Atlanta.
Signature quote: "In Atlanta, money and class do give you power."
Favorite on-air moments: trying guacamole for the first time, unsuccessfully spelling cat "k-a-t," butchering every song she attempts to sing.

NENE LEAKES

Online blogs claim NeNe did the show because she really wants to be an actress, even though she claims to have participated in the show to promote her domestic violence foundation, Twisted Hearts.
Reports have also surfaced that our favorite housewife is a former "dancer."
Signature quote: "I don't keep up with the Joneses, I am the Joneses."
Favorite on-air moments: singing an offensive ode to her former BFF Kim behind her back, learning how to add fractions, talkin' smack about Sheree 24/7.

LISA WU HARTWELL

Behind the scenes, Lisa is probably the housewife with the most interesting and sordid past. She was previously married to R&B star Keith Sweat. According to the blogs, she has two kids with him, but they are not featured on the show. It's unclear who has custody of the children. Scandalous!
Lisa claims to be an expert businesswoman, dabbling in both real estate and jewelry sales, but she hasn’t always had the success you’d imagine, and she filed for bankruptcy in 2007.
Apparently, Lisa has also gone by multiple aliases in the past, including Sharon Millette Wu, Sharon Lisa Sweat, and Lisa Wu Sweat. WHAT?!
Despite appearing to be one of the more stable housewives, Lisa apparently got into a huge fight with Kim, who now allegedly has a restraining order against her costar.
Signature quote: "If it doesn't make me money, I don't do it."
Favorite on-air moment: pretending to be besties with DeShawn the entire season while secretly hating her.

DESHAWN SNOW

Deshawn claims never to have seen her 15,000-square-foot mega-mansion before she walked into the decorated home after it was completed. Wouldn't that be nice?
OK, there isn't much else because, unlike Lisa, this housewife doesn't have such a secretive past.
Signature quote: "I always knew I was destined for greatness."
Favorite on-air moment: crying in her lavish bedroom as her tragic fundraiser fell flat.

SHEREE WHITFIELD

While Sheree has two children with ex-NFL star Bob Whitfield, bloggers claim she also has a 23-year-old daughter. Apparently in an interview in Essence magazine, she identified this alleged daughter as a "friend." Oh, snap!
During Sheree's "She by Sheree" fashion show, we never actually see one of her garments on display. Interesting!
Signature quote: "People are intimidated by my success."
Favorite on-air moment: telling Kim that she's a great singer while not laughing at the buxom blonde.

How can the season be ending just as all these juicy details are emerging?

What do you think? Modern or Traditional

I love the pottery barn black and white table set. I love the color and I love that I can paint my current furniture to get this look. But the traditional kitchen I found on http://www.ratemyspace.com/ would look great with my cabinets.

We've Got This

I feel like Rocky after he ran up to those steps...I feel like I am going into next week with knowledge and the ability to successfully get knocked up. I figure if Nate & I get it on from Sunday to Sunday it is bound to happen. I am going to pay attention to cervical fluid (blah) and vaginal sensation (giggle) and have lots and lots of sex!

Fingers crossed!!!
