Great News, Good News, Bad News

Are you the type of person that likes to hear your good or bad news first?  I’d always choose the good news, that way, the bad news might not sound so bad.  But today, we’re going Great, Bad, Good to finish on a high note:)

I was thinking that y’all are like me and would love to win one of those dresses- would sure put a spring in my step and get me looking forward to some warmer weather!  It’s also encouraging me to continue working out!  Thank you so much for entering and leaving your comments!  Elizabeth, please email me to hear how to claim your prize!

Bad News

We had an unfortunate incident with one of our living room lamps the other day.  James’ little friend tripped over the lamp cord and the lamp fell off the table, shattering the glass lampshade.  Thank God no one was hurt.

The lamp is from Pottery Barn but I don’t think they sell it anymore.  I’m not sure I can find a replacement shade.

Good News

Of course, the lamp incident required a trip to Home Goods to look for some new lamps (gotta see the silver lining!)  In fact, I’d been wanting some blue lamps for the living room anyway.  I spotted these right away for $49 and was sold.

I like it so much better!  Now, I’m off to the fabric store (round 2) to pull some sample fabric for drapes!

Do you know Brittany {Pretty Handy Girl}? I got to meet her at Blissdom and I’m so glad I did.  She is so talented and a really genuine person.  I previously posted about the closet-turned-reading nook she created for her son- AMAZING!!

She invited me to participate in her series
