I loved your post today on the story of Joseph and on keeping hope alive and having Faith!<br /><br /><br />Hi, Jill, I think we have a lot in common. I too love having things with a history, things that were used and loved before, I love to imagine what the previous owners were like and how they may have used some of the things I now have.<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of the weekend,ladies!<br />Love, EileenEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04828939117699003022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660197240885544447.post-4738822941298100522009-08-15T19:00:12.806-04:002009-08-15T19:00:12.806-04:00I love mismatched chairs.

I'm so glad you've been post...Hi, Jerelene!<br />I'm so glad you've been posting again! And you sound happy again too! I know you have so much going on and please know we all care about you and are praying for you and your family. Thanks for always being so sweet to me.<br />The curtain you are talking about is actually a shower curtain! I put it up in the archway (on a tension rod) between the front sun porch (which is really just a mess of toys now!) and the dining room because the curtains up front are just lace and I feel kind of vulnerable at night when I'm here in the dining room sitting at the computer. I like it better if nobody can see in!<br />Wish I could send you some beach! Or better yet, bring you here to enjoy it with us!<br />We were just talking about whether to go to Central Park or not, it's supposed to be really hot the next few days, so I might just wait until one evening next week, meet Ray after work and then walk to the park. It's surprisingly peaceful, quiet, and serene!<br /><br /><br />Hi, Wanda, thanks for stopping in! I loved your favorites today! Really nice post!<br /><br /><br />Hello, Bernie, wouldn't that be fun? I'd love to come and visit, and decorate! Maybe when you move we could make a plan! We could do a 'village make-over' everyone come armed with paint brushes for a painting party!<br /><br /><br />Hi, Rebecca, glad you stopped in, and I'm glad you agree with my weird way of decorating too! Mostly I choose comfortable and easy-to-care-for now! But I do love pretty and when I can do that to it is a bonus!<br /><br /><br />Hey, Jackie! Good to hear from you!<br />Is mismatched in? Or second-hand? Or both?!<br />We miss you, but just take care of yourself, and we'll be looking forward to some new posts from you whenever you get a chance!<br /><br /><br />I don't think I'll be posting this weekend, but I'll try to visit! Have a great weekend!<br />Love to all!, EileenEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679894230965874631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660197240885544447.post-11498894247350261602009-08-14T17:05:19.265-04:002009-08-14T17:05:19.265-04:00You know you are so "in" with the chairs...You know you are so "in" with the chairs....(I watch too much HGTV)....but that is THE thing to do now. <br /> Your weekend sounds full....but interesting.

You have very nice taste..Bohemian Eclectic..I've not heard of that..But, being that you have impeccable taste..then it means that you have WONDERFUL taste :) I love the dresser too..I would be proud to have any of those things in my home.<br />I love the rose print fabric in the background..curtains I'm supposing? Very pretty!<br />I loved the previous post with you guys on the beach..Jayden is just so adorable! You must have so much fun every day with him..But, I really love the beach pics...I can imagine myself there..the sound of the waves :)<br />Have a great weekend..Central Park sounds fun!!<br />Love, JereleneJerelenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06529089958420146830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660197240885544447.post-83264685538270036152009-08-14T11:14:29.297-04:002009-08-14T11:14:29.297-04:00Thanks, Diana!

No, Donald didn't do that picture of Jayden (although that reminds me of something else Donald made that I'll do in a future post!), this was a caricature done of him when we were in Disney World. He had just woken up, he was NOT happy and he refused to smile! But I loved it!<br /><br /><br />Hi, Marcy, I'm thinking I should have two sets of everything! Although if I would do the stairs more maybe I'd be in better shape!<br />My whole house is a mismatch and hodgepode of stuff anyway, I once did one of those "What's my home decor style?" quizzes and it turns out I'm 'Bohemian Eclectic' I think that's code for "you have no style! You're just a mess!" But I love the term Bohemian Eclectic!<br />You should see what's under the tablecloth (I usually don't cover the dining table, but I did it for one of those tablescape posts), it's a big marble table, I got it only for the wear and tear value as I'm not crazy about stone tables, I think they are cold looking. I'm looking to replace it with a big old, worn and already battered shabby chic farm table. (Shh! Don't tell Ray!) <br /><br /><br />Hi, Gail, I don't consider myself a 'devout' Catholic anymore, it's very personal. Just a lot of stuff that went on. But I do find a lot of the traditions give me a feeling of "I'm HOME". <br />And the Blessed Mother has always been a Safe Haven for me! I remember my Mom when I was little would always say to ask the Blessed Mother to ask Jesus to bestow a favor because He never refused His mother and then she would tell the story about the wedding at Cana and how it seemed Jesus didn't really want to do the miracle but did it at His mother's request!<br />And she would tell the joke of St. Peter complaining to Jesus that he was turning sinners away at the front gate but that "Your mother is sneaking them in through the back door!"<br />I like to think of her as my own mother too! And in real life if I wanted anything, I went to my Mom and had her ask my Dad! <br /><br />Have a great weekend, ladies!<br />Love you, EileenEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679894230965874631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660197240885544447.post-45487149942938736982009-08-14T10:51:53.042-04:002009-08-14T10:51:53.042-04:00Hi Eileen and happy Friday!

I like the desk/dresser too - amazing shape!! <br />And the Feast of The Assumption - I am surprised my Mom, devout Catholic - watch the Mass daily - say her rosary every day - didn't mention it!! <br />I call myself a "Recovering Catholic"!! :-) Amen.<br /><br />Love to you<br />Have a great weekend<br />Gail <br />peace.....Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337675996256691215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660197240885544447.post-70393488331200821882009-08-14T08:47:27.619-04:002009-08-14T08:47:27.619-04:00The funny thing, Eileen, is that those chairs just...The funny thing, Eileen, is that those chairs just DO go together!

Also liked the dresser Eileen, I noticed it in your post when you cleaned out Jaydens dresser. I also liked the picture of Jayden on the dresser. Did Donald do that?<br />Have a fun weekend!Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.com
