Hello, hope this finds you all doing well considering the "Christmas chaos" has officially begun. I don't even allow myself to think of all I have to do, because I literally might faint, so I just take it one thing at a time, knowing it always gets done. I must admit I do daydream about getting away. A lot. Not in the cards with our move but its fun to imagine! So next best thing is a virtual trip......
Its another Which would you choose. So here's the deal....you and three of your best friends whose company you love and enjoy immensely have decided to escape for a little girls only getaway. Just a three or four day jaunt. Just enough to make the family realize that the domestic diva they thought they had is actually totally indispensable and they will be begging on hand and foot to have you back ten hours after you are gone. Nothing like a little distance for a few days for "the fam' to really appreciate all you do and how effortlessly you make it look!
Now, you get to choose from a few different types of vacations....will it be beach or poolside, or " ski to your hearts content" kind of trip, maybe a rustic and elegant farm to lounge around ...its your choice!! Do you see an active trip, with plenty of physical exercise and sun or ski runs during the day and cozying up by a fire roasting marshmallows at night or maybe just an old fashioned getaway with long walks and maybe horseback riding during the day and Scrabble marathons and glasses of wine at sunset? Maybe a city slicker weekend, spent catching a Broadway hit, shopping to your hearts content, eating at a new trendy restaurant...something for everyone! Its your trip and you are in charge......so choose from these six fabulous destinations and tell me where you would want to escape with your pack of friends and why! I have included your guest room and bath with each home to hopefully make your decision a little easier....good luck and get packing!
CHOICE 1 WONDERFUL WILD WEST
CHOICE 2 COASTAL CHARM
CHOICE 3 GLAMOROUS CITY SLICKER
CHOICE 4 ISLAND FEVER
CHOICE 5 DESERT ESCAPADE
CHOICE 6 FARM FABULOUS
Definitely something for everyone! I cannot wait to see which you choose and which one comes out on top.With the way I am craving a getaway, any of these would be a most welcome reprise!! So, tell me where you are headed and what you can imagine doing there.....
Wishing you a great day.
And one last little tidbit....
Its not unusual to daydream (like me) to want to be away especially during the holidays when stress levels are at an all time high, and I witnessed a parking incident yesterday that got rather ugly between two well dressed women, (nothing to the degree of this video however) this is an oldie but goodie and sadly things like this happen with increasing frequency. This makes me want to go home and avoid malls and parking lots from here to eternity....Can you imagine!
UPDATE- I have taken a trip afterall.....will be back later in the week. Wishing you a wonderful Sunday and fabulous start to your week! *** This post was slated to post yesterday, a day where I was due to set off on my Southern road trip but the plan was diverted :( My sister had a pressing issue that has delayed our trip hopefully just temporarily! But I am posting this anyway as there is a ton of fun links here worth sharing!*** Hi there, my camera is packed, my sunhat is ready to do some overtime, my suitcase is filled with clothes to keep me cool, and yes even my little portable water bottle fan (as kitschy as it might be) is there for safe keeping......you do what you gotta do to stay cool:) By the time you are reading this, I will be gone gone gone. I must admit I am quite excited about my little "southern road trip" and thanks to all of you...I have more than enough names and ideas on my list than I can possibly do but that's part of the fun! I cannot thank you en...

Perhaps one of them most overlooked but overused rooms in the entire house is that ubiquitous little room lurking in the back corner of the house, the infamous mudroom. Mudrooms have made progress by leaps and bounds however, and are finally getting the recognition they so deserve!!

On the 23rd, I took another course: Environmental Issues with Steve Selig. His class was contact-packed - I took five pages of notes and we rolled through short breaks and lunch, frankly, I thought, eager to get back to learning what he had to teach. A complex person - attorney, environmental activist, home inspector and remediation expert, knowledgeable in what seemed like everything related to the environment. The areas he covered were mold, radon, carbon monoxide, water, buried oil tanks,lead, asbestos, and septic systems. The most amount of time was spent on mold - what it is, what the dangers are, and why it's become a leading concern in the real estate field, both with new construction and resale. The short video he played was terrifying. A family had neurological damage from living in a house - huge and expensive - that would never be able to be re-habbed. The brain damage in the father and son was permanent also. Very simply put, mold ...
