Hey ladies and gents. Lately (if I've gotten a solid night sleep), I've been getting up without a problem at around 6. I love this time of day when all is quite in the house-- God I hope I didn't just jinx myself... but I can watch News Channel 4 ....pretty much for Michael Gargiulo's smile (he is one cute newscaster). Ok back to it. I've been doing a ton of design work on my house (the one we still don't own) because you know, even if we don't move into this house for some reason, I will be ... [Read More]
Beautiful Rugs
While searching Etsy lately for a substitute for a rug that I can not afford I came across a seller who blew me away with their items.I do love a good cow hide rug, reindeer hide or anything soft like sheepskin but I don't think I've seen anything quite as intricately beautiful as Life Style by Cara's creations. I literally gasped when I saw this one, which sort of has the same vibe as the rug I am searching for. Take a look. My favorite and made me a little teary eyed. And then there are ... [Read More]
The One That Nearly Got Away
You know that sinking feeling when the item in your cart or that thing you had being eyeing suddenly is no longer available? Yea. It's a sucky feeling. Recently, I had that experience with something I had had my eye on since the summer time. You see it was this gorgeous blue velvet yummy (almost antique) sofa from the 20's. Every time every damn time I went into Northport Antiques, I would look at it, sit on it and dream of the home it would go in. But since we were still looking for a home at ... [Read More]
Getting Published
Hey Buttercups! It's been a while but I am here. Frankly speaking, I was feeling a little uninspired as of late with the delay of our home purchase. Real estate and the buying or selling of it is so nerve wracking and heart wrenching at times. And while things aren't 100% settled yet, I'm optimistic things are gonna work out for the best and I can not wait to show you what we've been up to. As in true Mary fashion, I don't want to jinx it too much and show you just yet. Although... if you saw my ... [Read More]
We’ve Moved!
Well guys, it's been a few months that Craig and I were cleaning up and packing the rest of our stuff and finally leaving our beloved first home. (Truth be told, this blog post has been in my draft box for a while... oops.) We did it. We sold our home. The last day we were there we were in such a rush till the end (and were late to closing...yeesh) but we were able to savor the last few moments in our home. Since the kids and dogs were at their Gammy's house already, it really was so special ... [Read More]
