Oh my goodness!  The house is a little cluttery, but only because things are a changin'!  Today is a little bit of a chill day for me and my ladies because we had a LONG day!

• First of all, it was garbage day today, so now the bins are ready for re-filling and we must be re-inspired to do so.  
• Second, our personal household hero is on TV...Niecy Nash.  The girls and I absolutely LOVE "Clean House".  It isn't on anymore, but we watch it on Netflix when we need a little organizational mojo.  Tonight our break permits dinner and "the show".
• Third...I got 3 new decorating mags in the mail today, so I am hard at work in the inspiration dept.
• Finally...and WOW...is the dining room.  I can't give anything away until the reveal, but I can't believe how that room is transforming.  I can't believe I didn't come up with this sooner!  I can't wait to show you, but while we wait, I will whet your appetite by showing you before.  This is the pic as the dining room playing the part of the office.  I did this last summer after realizing the dining room playing itself was really not a functional use (at least not in our house)  You can see remnants of the dining room with my china hutch...just doesn't work.  I also have some favs in this room.  Like the vintage leather chair in the corner, and the light fixture with amber glass.  I even love the vintage door, but that is going to have to find a new role too.  In fact, after a few short months, I realized that the dining room doesn't really work as an office either.  The fact is, I love having visitors, and lots of open, connected space and I am hoping my transformation will accomplish that.  I will let you be the judge of that when the reveal happens!

For now, more work, more budget building, more organizing, and I do need to find a replacement table for the kitchen. It is island eating for us ladies :).
