Have I Mentioned...

Have I mentioned the hole in my kitchen
ceiling and the mess left in its aftermath?
It's awful.
Our kitchen is a disaster zone.
The gutter people came this morning and roof crew will be here later this afternoon.
Then on to clean up team to take care of the tornado
which took place all over mi cocina.

Speaking of tornadoes...
Have I mentioned how freaking cute and smart Carter is?
He wrote this on the chalkboard yesterday while sirens were going off all over the metroplex.
Have I mentioned that my sweet hubby...who is feeling much better by the way...
randomly brought me home flowers the other day?
Love him.
Have I mentioned/or shown you the family name sign
I ordered forever and a moon ago off etsy?
It's usually over the window in the kitchen when we don't have a hole in the ceiling.
Love it.
Although I wish now that I would have ordered an oval shape.
Have I mentioned I love chalkboard paint?
Yesterday, since I stayed out of the sweatshop...AKA: the master bedroom...so Ryan could rest, I painted a flowerpot that houses a plant we received as a gift the week before we married.
Yes, it says "plant"...just in case you didn't know what it was.
I then discovered what has been chewing the leaves of all of our plants:
That little guy right there has been doing this to the leaves on almost all of our plants:
He's cute and part of nature, but, seriously...go away.
Thanks.

Speaking of chalkboard paint...
Have I mentioned I bought some colored chalk?
So now I can do this:
Fun.

Have I mentioned how I cover up light switch plates randomly placed
in awkward spots on the wall?
I hang a piece of "artwork" from ribbon so that it visually takes up
enough space so as to cover up the ugly, plastic square of electric receptacleness.
I just made that word up.
And finally...have I mentioned that our dog, Shelby,
takes doggie Valium when it rains because she is absolutely terrified of water?
Well, she does.
Notice the droopy, drugged-out eyes.
Poor, Shelby.
She's so happy the sun is out today.
Happy Thursday, my friends!!

  3. Have I mentioned that I just love your random posts??

    PLANT - love that.

    I think I might take a hole in my kitchen ceiling rather than have to pull up every bit of seagrass carpet upstairs. I'm so annoyed. Have I mentioned that???

  4. Love it all. Go away nature and leave those plants alone. Carter is CUTE! I hope the hole is gone soon. I love flowers for no reason. Coco might have mentioned this, but we went to HS with a friend who has a business all about chalk. It's called Chalkydoodles. Look it up (there is a link on my blog).
