What the...

I had a dream that David Cook was in my class..apparently we were still in school or something. In my dream I went up to him and told him I needed to make out with him before we graduated...you know! Just so I could say I made out with him!!! He just laughed at me. We were good friends so it was a odd request and I was dating Mike so I was mentally trying to figure out the logistics of how I was going to kiss David and have it not be me cheating. CRAZY!!!! So not into David Cook!!

So I'm on a mission to find a nice piece of art work for my kitchen wall... that's one of the last things I need to complete the room and check one more area of my home off my to do list! It has not been very easy! I drove all over Tuesday searching for the perfect painting! I'd love to just pick something up but that leads to two big problems...The first being Mike and I don't have the same taste when it comes to art work and second, I need a fairly large piece for a big wall and I drive a small car! Woe is me!

Like my new header!!! I found this awesome and super easy cool new site that turned everyday photos into old antique prints. It's an Asian site...don't ask me how I found it but it's soooo simple! upload your photo in the browser bar and then press the blue button below it with the ??????! Te Da!!! A cool photo. Save it by right clicking and selecting "save image as."

here is the link

here are some more cool examples...




So cool huh!!! New favorite site!!!!!

ok...so I'm off to get ready ( I know! It's already 9:30ish and I'm still in my robe...back off!!!) and off to search again for the perfect piece of art work...ok maybe not the perfect piece but something that will do!

the new header looks great!
have you tried ebay for artwork? when we moved i searched photographs and artwork all the time. i would type in the size i wanted and if i wanted painting, sketch, photograph, whatever it was. then i would make them sort in from the lowest price to the highest. i'm telling you, there are some really cool .99 cent things out there that are a steal. then, you don't have to feel bad about a shipping fee...and mike can see it before you buy it...and it doesn't have to fit in your car. all good things! give it a try! good luck!

What a beautiful picture of you on your header. Looks fabulous!

I don't know what you are looking for in your kitchen but have you checked out the Kirkland's store out there? I love that place! Prices are great and they have fun decorating things. check it out www.kirklands.com

You crack me up...I don't think I even have any photos of myself alone...thank goodness! I have dreams like that all the flippin time, it's horrible...I always feel so guilty. Ya know the whole Freud thing or who ever it was who said your dreams are really deep desires you are to afraid to express in your every day life :) GUILTY!

Ok, so I'm laughing at your David Cook dream! I have SO had dreams like that before with people that I don't even find remotely attractive! And to make you feel better, it's 4:30 PM and I'm STILL in my pajamas. Yes, it's been one of THOSE type of days.

Ranay said...

Sounds like a great web site - I will definitely have to check it out - thanks for sharing! And I love your new header too! Looks great,what a cutie you are - so beautiful! David Cook would be an idiot to turn down a make out session with you!

Wonderful blog, maybe you will get me converted one of these days!!!
Jen,
Hey I have a riddle that you can put on your blog.

What is greater than God, more evil than the devil, the poor have it, the rich need it, and if you eat it you'll die...

Have a great day!
Jen
