Sometimes online shopping just isn't worth the trouble. Here's my tale. What a rigamarole. When I was little and something was a hassle, time consuming or involved a lot of steps, my mom used to say, What a rigamarole!  It was a fun word to say, kind of a tongue twister, and I used it often myself. Did I bother to look it up? Nope.

Well hello. My goodness it feels like forever since I sat down at my computer with the intention of sending words out into the world. Oh, I've thought about it many times over the past few weeks...or months, but somehow, once I sat down at the keyboard, the wind went out of my writing sails and I simply got up and walked away. My heart just wasn't in it.

I think it's fair to say that taking pictures has become a national pastime. Food, flowers...faces...it seems like everyone's obsessed with snapping shots and sharing them. Clearly, I'm addicted, as well. Just look around.

Sink skirts are an easy way to add charm to a room. They're also a super simple way to redecorate just by changing the fabric. One quick swap and my kitchen is refreshed. Hello friends! I hope you're all doing well. I've been spending my days looking for silver linings...family dinners, game nights, virtual conversations with friends and a lot less internet. I'm going to try to get back to answering my comments right away and posting on my normal schedule. If I can remember what that was! Anyway...the last time we spoke, I was itching to redecorate . I was growing weary of my surroundings and decided to pick up where I'd left off a few months ago and continue with my plans to update my decor. Just a bit.

So. I've always been a homebody. That's no secret. However. This is a little too much time at home even for me. Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. I'm happy to do my part to protect myself and others, but the view is getting a little old.
