1. Yup, that's me.
2. Just call me slacker
3. because I have.
4. Been slacking, that is.
5. I admit it.
6. But for a good reason!
7. I've been popping in and out of your beautiful homes
8. stealing ideas
9. because I needed some inspiration
10. because I'm bored with my house right now
11. and it needed some refluffing and refloofing
12. and I didn't know where to start.
13. So I whined and cried
14. and threw myself at my friend Jo's feet from Secret Garden Cottage
15. begging her for guidance and advice in making my home look more like hers
| Jo's incredible kitchen |
16. and making her promise to be brutally honest with me.
17. I emailed her photos of my unhappy, unfluffed, unfloofed house
18. and waited for her to lay her expert eyes across them and spew her decorating wisdom.
19. She happily did.
20. After reading, rereading, and again rereading her critique and ideas
21. I immediately threw my laptop down and started tossing things around the ktichen
![]() | |
| My unfloofed kitchen... |
![]() |
| ...in need of floofing (but WITH a new farm light over the table!) |
22. in a good way, mind you......not at Jo.
23. I was still tossing at 12:30am
24. when I noticed another email from my head-stylist
25. asking if I was still talking to her or not.
26. Oops.
27. In my juvenile anxiousness to instantly make the changes she so sweetly suggested
28. I forgot to drop her an email and thank her.
27. Slacker.
28. After making the proper amends with her, I finally headed to bed
29. only to be up 7 hours later raring to go to make a trip to
30. which can now be defined as my new second home
31. because I'll be spending a whole lot of time there, you see,
32. due to the fact that they carry everything under the sun for a house in need of refloofing.
33. So if you don't see various sundry items being tossed out of my windows
34. and I don't answer my phone
35. you'll know that I'm at
36. loading my cart carts with treasures tagged with little stickers that say 50% OFF.
37. Oh yeah, baby.
38. This slacker won't be home for a while.....
39. and she might be a great BIG slacker for a few more days
40. before she reveals the changes she's made thanks to her super-duper stylist friend, Jo.
