Room Reveal Blog Central

Hi everyone.  Didn't realize I published this one.  Hadn't even written the text yet.  Getting old really stinks.


As you can figure out, the first photos are the "before" pictures.  






My #2 virtually unpacked and put all my things in just the right spot while I was working on another room.



Got the rug at my favorite Homegoods.








Also got the table at Homegoods.


My #1's self portrait from high school.


#2 made this in ceramics in high school.





#2 gave this to me.  Just love it.



The B family gave this to us 22 years ago when the Mister and I moved to California.  It has made it through six moves.


Every time I look at this poster I think of how much I loved living in The Woodlands and the wonderful friends we made.


KTG gave me the above paper weight when I started my blog.


She gave me this darling candy dish this Christmas.  I fill it with Caltrate chews - the candy for busy, fun women over 50 30.





KTG and her our mama, Miss Ellie.



My much older Sista and me.



This is holy toile.  Ann F., a wonderful lady that I have known all my life wrote me the sweetest note when I started my blog.  It lifted my spirits and inspires me to write.  


Needlepoint pillow of my high school.




Dude, Mary H. and I met in NYC a few years ago.  This is a remembrance of a great day.


That's it for Blog Central.

Have a great week!




Sista's babies... George Clooney and Max

  15. The needlepoint pillow of your high school is precious. My high school was an ugly modern building. I always wanted to go to a high school like Rydell High on Grease!
