It seems that we are officially back in the swing of things now that January is halfway over. The holidays are well enough behind us and it’s time to get back to normal routines. I love this time of year for the promise it holds – a whole new year to accomplish all those goals and projects we’ve laid out for ourselves.

We are actually moving soon though and I’m thrilled. We’ve been in our current place for awhile and I’ve never loved it, but it was right for what we needed at the time. I’m actually quite excited about the new place — it’s newer/nicer with a better floor plan that I actually really like.
In my world, this translates to two things: major organization and redecorating.
Boy, you just don’t realize how things can pile up! I feel so much better to have officially cleaned out a lot of the problem areas. Call it early spring cleaning. You can be so much more ruthless when you know you’ll have to move whatever you keep :-) And also, it’s easier to decorate when you’ve edited some.
I’ve been haunting the Celadon outlet like nobody’s business, researching sofas, and dreaming of pretty graphic pillows.
For some reason I really want this elephant pillow by Sugarboo Designs. No explanation really, I just love it.
Also, these vases from Crate and Barrel are freaking amazing.
I also got another rug from Overstock after my last success, and it already got here and I am peeved that I can’t open it yet. That would not make sense as it would be so much harder to move….boo.
So at any rate, after our whirlwind Europe trip and the chaos of the holidays, I’m feeling great to be back to normal life, to our little company that surprises me every day, and window shopping for the new place. How are things with you these days?
