Emily Henderson Viewing Party

August 23rd, 2010

Ok, so we all know that Emily knew she won. Which make sense as to why she would want to have a viewing party and invite the general public. You all know I'm a huge fan of Design Star and so you guessed it, I totally attended! For the most part everyone was super nice. Meeting Emily was surreal but meeting Matt Locke from SEASON 3 WAS JUST OMG OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING! I always joke that I'm going to kidnap the Design Star contestants and have them make over my house Read More...

Survived the 1st Week of School

August 21st, 2010

Honestly the week could not have been more chaotic. Between working full time, the children being in school, the husband being gone for work & trying to decorate a house with no design talents whatsoever I'm ready to just throw in the towel.

School is Back in Session

August 14th, 2010

The children started school on Wednesday. So far, so good. I donated over $200 worth of supplies to my son's second grade class. I feel like all children should have the best supplies available not what is bought by the district such as Staples brand pencils that leave red eraser smears when you erase with them Read More...

Room Fu’s interview with Nina

July 20th, 2010

Nina looks like she's been rode hard and put up wet. Now get your minds out of the gutter people. What I mean by that is that she looks rough. When @roomfu interviewed her she made this statement. You’ve written bad things about Emily Henderson. I wrote nothing bad about Emily. You posted a comment about her on Design Blahg Read More...

Moving Days

July 19th, 2010

As you all know or most of you know we're moving to a new home this week. We closed on the home and have been busy trying to get everything moved prior to the children starting school. School starts in early August where we are moving to which means that we won't have much time to settle in before the hustle & bustle of school begins again Read More...

Design Star – Dan Faires Should Still Be There

July 19th, 2010

I must admit that I'm extremely upset that Dan Faires was sent home. It was a team challenge that at the last minute turned into an individual challenge. Dan gave everything he could to that team. It was hilarious watching this weekend. My son had to watch it. He wanted to see Emily (http://www.thebrasspetal Read More...

July 13th, 2010

EB Lost His Other Front Tooth

June 29th, 2010

So, last night I'm downstairs working on something for work the next day. I work from home and I'm a remote employee. However, I was planning on going into the office today. I had several things to work on including helping people learn how to use Time Matters more efficiently. As I'm working on searches and quick tabs I hear a bloodcurdling cry from upstairs Read More...

HGTV Design Star Music Inspiration

June 29th, 2010

I'm still totally annoyed that Dan Faires didn't receive any credit in the music room. Vern even accused him of saying that the guitar was upbeat. That was what Stacey said about her instrument not Dan. Dan said that his instrument reminded him of being at home lounging and playing the guitar. He has a pet pig Trudy that he played the guitar too Read More...

HGTV Design Star

June 25th, 2010

As most of you know I ♥ HGTV. I watch it religiously. What ever I'm going through in life I can turn on HGTV and tune out all other distractions. They have this new layout and new designer judges. I really miss Clive. Vern is an absolutely meanie these days. He's not very complimentary which makes sense because as of yet we haven't seen a lot to compliment on Read More...
