I've been busy and haven't posted in a while so I thought I would share what I'm up to...
1. Yes, I have been creating, just less. I hope you will check out the Penny Black blog March 17-21st. I will be guesting on the blog. Look at this cool poster they made for the "event". *blushing*
2. Painting my house. Exterior paint color is STRESSFUL! I have spent a ton of money on little samples and I think I am close to a final color choice. I decided to repaint my front door too. Top of the list is a color called Mumbo Jumbo by Kwal Paints. Cross your fingers it's cool and not crazy!
3. In all the stress of painting and spring cleaning, this song (Human Touch by Bruce Springsteen) seems to get played a lot. I appreciate Bruce Springsteen more and more.
4. I bought some shoes! They make me feel fancy and at LEAST 5'5" ;)). I got them at TJ Maxx.
5. I started watching THE FOLLOWING and boy is it getting good. TV is finally coming out of reality TV (though I like that too), and making shows feel like movies which is pretty good for this mom of 4! Kevin Bacon is aging better than me, but that's ok...it's not actually, but I am trying to be positive!!
6. I am still pinning on Pinterest! It makes me feel like I am being creative when I don't have time to actually be. Here is one of my favorites lately...SO INSPRIRING
Ok well that's it for now. I hope you all are doing some great things too and I would love to hear about it!

gorgeous eye candy!
ReplyDeleteFun post, Wida! I haven't been doing much creating outside of DT assignments either because my husband went totally crazy with the birthday surprises this year for my 40th. First a surprise visit from my parents on my actual birthday weekend. My dad and I have the same birthday so it was really great to be able to be together to celebrate. Then, a surprise trip for the two of us to New Orleans----my first time visiting there! And on our first night in New Orleans, we're sitting at the hotel bar and in walks our two closest friends who flew in from San Diego to spend the weekend with us!!!! It was AWESOME!!! Life is good!!!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing you over at Penny Black....
ReplyDeleteWow, Wida, I can't wait to see you grace the pages of Penny Black!! Good luck with the house painting ... I can imagine the stress. Post a pic when you can : )
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what you show off at Penny Black :-)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the painting. I have been busy deciding interior colors for our new house. So many rooms to paint! I love the inspiration pin. So soothing! And the shoes. Those shoes are fabulous. New shoes are just therapy to fix anything. :) So 5'5" huh? I'd need some hooker shoes to make it that high! I love a fellow shorty.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a little quiet in Widaville, and now we know why! Can't wait for your Penny Black feature--what an awesome poster!
ReplyDeleteVery cool about your Penny Black event. Love the poster! You must be so pumped about that!! Great paint color -- it reminds me of a rich, homemade caramel. And shoes...why, a girl can never have enough! Do remember to take time and do those things that make you happy. It's so important when you're a young working mom to do that. Smell those roses girl! Have a great weekend. Bev
ReplyDeleteGreat post, and can't wait to see the PB event ;oP
ReplyDeletehahaha! Your inspiration photo reminds me so much of our fb conversation the other night!!
