RESULTS OF "THE MIX"

LOVE these colors...........

Still MODERN and yet has enough softness to smooth the 650 90-degree angles! ok well maybe not so much the pic above.. but below definately.

AdOrE this blue.... um yes.

Don't like the bed. But I think I have proven my point!

INTERIOR DESIGN

So, here I am googling pictures of "interior design". I find 2 very distinct styles that are near and dear to me..... my best friends style, and mine. Can you tell whose is whose? Here is where we clash.

How does one feel all comfy cosey when your couch has 650 right angles in it?? or your coffee table could impale you with one pass? Keep the clean design but soften it. Not saying that your living room has to be pretty in pink.... but really? There have to be more colors to a living room other than white, grey and black. Right?? It's just not my cup of tea I suppose. Now for a combination of the two... a happy medium... does it exist? I accept this challenge............................

The mix??? to be continued.

UnPluGGeD

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be unplugged for like a day?

Can you imagine the peace, quiet, solitude, and alone time that you could find by doing so?

Whatever happened to reading Books? What about a MaGaZiNE heaven forbid?

No one trying to find you, no one to remind you of the assignment you forgot or about the appointment that you have yet to make.

Less time wasted on facebook, checking e-mail, blog stalking.... more sleep???

Dark, Silence, Solitude.

A day for you. Only you.

Do. Not. dIsTUrB.

Peace & Quiet

"Glow" Songs

So maybe I am crazy but have you ever heard a song that made you shut your eyes and feel like you were glowing inside?? That total and complete happiness that comes.... my FAVORITE. I wish I could bottle that feeling. This last week I found a couple of songs that have done that. I also LOVE listening to those old songs that you know because your momma used to listen to FM 100. The ones that you never sought out to listen to but you know all the words by heart and can sing along to without a second thought.

I find it so funny that sometimes when I try and explain that feeling to other people some absolutely know what I am talking about and others give me the look of "you are weird katie". Ha oh well, as long as someone can relate to me I will continue to explain this awesome mode of my happiness. Seek out those "glow songs".... they have made my days full of infinitely more joy!!

ENOUGH

How much is enough?

I am being serious. How much is enough patience. How much is enough love. How much is enough forgiveness. Sometimes it's hard to really take the time to figure out the answers. I'm tired, pulled, proded, and ultimately exhausted. I'm tired of giving more than "enough". I need to remember to be patient, I really do and to remember those people who ultimately make my life worth living. They keep me sane. Sometimes I just feel like I need an outlet. I need an escape, from everyone and everything. I need a vacation.

I need out..... for now, here I rant.

********Fate********

Have you ever found it funny that when you really need a friend, that sometimes the fates smile down on you and you happen to find someone?

Is there really such a thing as fate or is it a really fantastic universal anomaly that you find one out of millions that you can connect, relate, smile, and laugh with? Isn't it odd though? If you fess up to the fact that you believe in fate does that mean that whatever you do, it doesn't matter because fate will interfere to shape your life? Or do you have to play the middle ground and say you believe in fate but that you still can change your fate depending on how you live your life? Doesn't that cancel the whole idea of fate???? huh.... or maybe that's when you just smile to the heavens and say "hey thanks" :)
