Still here

I am still here. I did not give up the blog. Work has been C-R-A-Z-Y. I am averaging 50 hour work weeks and am completely exhausted when I get home. I was hoping things might die down, but I am not so sure with people being out for summer vacations. All I can say is I guess it's job security. Hopefully I can get back into some blogging here soon.

Blogging

I am sad to say that I am thinking about giving up the blog. Here are my reasons:

1) I CANNOT seem to upload pictues EVER!

2) Not that many people read my blog. And those who do, have their own blog. And we blog about the same things a lot of the time.

I am torn..

But do not worry, if I give up blogging (for now) I will continue to read everyone elses blog, and I can always start back!

Another little game

Again, for my love of music.. here is what you do:

1) go to your favorite search engine
2) type in "Top hits from (year you were born)"
3) post top 10 songs


Here are mine - 1983!

1. Every Breath You Take, Police
2. Billie Jean, Michael Jackson
3. Flashdance...What A Feeling, Irene Cara
4. Down Under, Men At Work
5. Beat It, Michael Jackson
6. Total Eclipse of the Heart, Bonnie Tyler
7. Maneater, Daryl Hall and John Oates
8. Baby, Come to Me, Patti Austin and James Ingram
9. Maniac, Michael Sembello
10. Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This), Eurythmics

Love these songs! I have about half on my ipod!! I knew they were from the '80s, but not the year I was born:)

I am tagging anyone who reads this!!

mama don't take my kodachrome away

Here are the rules:

1) open your first photo folders
2) got to the 10th picture
3) post the photo and explain the story behind it















This picture if from July 4th 2007 at Holly and Grady's old house in Blythewood. Devin had brought Bocci ball and we played all over their yard. It was funny because Salsa kept wanting to pick up the ball in the backyard so we had to move to the side and front yards. Holly is looking so serious about playing and Lindsay and Grady were excited about something, or being goofy! It was a fun day!!

What is your decor style?

So.. ever since we moved into the house I have been trying to decide what I like, what I don't like and what works. Half the stuff I have put in here, I want to change. What I thought would look good, doesn't always. I also feel it is very dark in here. Oh.. if I had the money.

So the past week I have been trying to decide what my decorating style is. I took 5 quizzes on the internet. They asked me questions from my personal taste, to my attitude and even to rate pictures of rooms. These are my results:

1) Country French
2) Contemporary/Casual
3) Eastern Boho
4) Urban Sophisticate
5) This one was a mix - Nantucket Style 40%, Cottage Chic 30%, Traditional Country 30%

Not ONE was the same! I have no idea what that means. And it did NOT answer my question! So without a answer, I am not sure what styles I should lean towards so at least everything in the house flows. I do not want one room country french and another room Eastern Boho.

You might as well call it around the world at the Falls house if that is the case.

My question to you is.. what is your decorating style? And, if you have been to my house, what do you think my decorating style is, if any?


Truly, I wish I could start all over....

Deck the Walls

Mr. and Mrs. Falls were here last night and brought me a birthday present! Mrs. Falls said that Nathan (my nephew) saw it and said "Hey, it's Tank" so they bought it for me. I absolutely love it! I mean I am a pug fanatic! I look most forward to hanging it in the guest room somewhere. And its perfect since I already have orange and green in there.

Meanwhile, earlier this week I was looking for other stuff to hang in the guest room. I found these and Michael said we could get them in the next couple of months! I CANNOT wait!!

How fun are these? Blown up postcards! I love them! I will take pictures once I get them and they are up!!

Sick Sickly

So today I missed work for the first time in over a year for being sick :( I guess I was do. I have chest and head congestion. I am coughing, blowing my nose and feel like I may have/have had a slight fever here and there. My eyes are tired. Tank has been a great companion today.

The worst thing about this is my best friend back home gets married on Saturday. Please pray for a quick recovery from this cold for me. I HAVE to be better by this weekend there is too much to do and I want to have a good time!

Did I mention I hate being sick? blah... so bored... hopefully I will feel better in the morning to make it into work tomorrow.

And Mike has been great taking care of me! I guess he is paying me back for his New Year's battle with the stomah flu where I took care of him.
