Welcome

Welcome to my little world! My name is Donna and I'm the mother of one very spoiled kitty named Clarice. I was a banker for over 20 years but now I'm a SAHM and loving every minute of it. I'm a super, huge Bon Jovi fan and an avid cross stitcher. I love decorating my home with flea market finds, primitive style items and vintage items. My hubby says if the last three generations threw it out as trash it'll end up in our house as a decoration.

Where the hell does the time go?

I swear yesterday it was April 22 so how come the calendar today has May 12th as the date? LOL! Things have been crazy around here as usual. Let's see work continues to be an adventure everyday but hey, the doors are still open and that's good news nowdays. I'm still on the hunt for the perfect sofa on Craigs List but I do have Mark's blessing to find something and I have a buyer for the leather set. I had a Pottery Barn sofa cornered but the gal seems to be a bit of a flake so I've stopped trying. There have been a few that fit my general ideas but nothing that really thrills me...yet!

Mark's headed back to China the end of this month and I've decided that will be perfect time for a total beedroom makeover. Donna (next door...I know too funny that we're both Donna and live next door to each other) has agreed to help me paint so now I need to narrow down the color. Martha Stewart has a greyish blue that I'm really leaning towards and I found the perfect quilt on markdown at JC Penney. That American Living brand that they are carrying is really great. Someone told me that it's Ralph Lauren brand but I haven't confirmed that with anyone. I got a little carried away online and ordered 4 different ones so I may be redoing the guestrooms as well. You should check out the website if you are in the market for new bedding.

Well it's time for American Idol and Bon Jovi is performing so I'm off to drool a little or make that alot.
