Happy Girl

I saw this image over at dress design decor (originally from Martha Stewart Weddings Spring 2010 issue) and wanted to pass it along.

Don't you just love Audrey Hepburn?

Do you need a place to live through the summer?

Then leave me a comment. I'm selling my housing contract. Rent is $405 but I'm flexible on that. I can also throw in a 24" TV/DVD combo with the deal (since the place doesn't come with a TV). Here's the info:

Rent the master suite in this beautiful, spacious, clean town home in South Provo!

The rent is $405, but, you could easily be paying $450 for a master suite in this neighborhood, so this is a great price.

The room is large with a private bathroom, and tons of storage in the walk-in closet. The town home itself has two other tenants and is a three bedroom, two and a half bath. It has lots of windows and light, a large pantry in the kitchen and a full unfinished basement with TONS of storage space.

Amenities:
*Private bedroom
*Private bath
*Walk-in closet
*Tons of storage space
*Washer and dryer included
*Furnished with bed, desk, dresser and bookshelf
*Free cable
*Covered Parking
*Lots of light

The contract goes through August with an option to renew for another year. The roommates are kind and quiet, and the area is social with a good mix of singles and families, students and working professionals, etc.

You will love it here! Please email me with any questions or to schedule an appointment to see the house.

Thanks!

So, here’s a thing.

***

POST EDIT:

IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT MARTHA STEWART IS ALREADY IN WALMART STORES. PHASE 2 HAS COMMENCED. HEADING FOR THE HILLS IS ADVISED, ALTHOUGH I DON'T DOUBT GOOGLE'S ABILITY TO FIND YOU THERE, TOO.

***


OK, two things.


1. Thanks for the wedding day advice! I knew you would come through for me, like always. Keep it rolling in.


2. Martha Stewart.


Her paint is now at The Home Depot. And that’s fine, only they’ve ousted Ralph Lauren’s paint line to make room for it. (I know, I know.)


And I didn’t find out about this switch-a-roo until after the fact, when it was too late to go get one of each of Ralphie’s chips (I know, I know).


Le sigh.


I’m also acutely aware that whenever I do decorating-type posts on this blog, no one cares.


But don’t you care that Martha Stewart is slowly taking over the universe? The only places you don’t see her are at Walmart and on the Google logo.


Walmart, Google and Martha Stewart: The deadly combo that will create the tri-opoly that will at once democratize and homogenize everything anyone ever does at any time, ever, forever. They just have a handshake agreement now not to tread into each others’ markets, slowly gobbling up all the competition in their respective areas of expertise, then boom!


What happens when the boom hits, I don’t know, but Google sure knows where you live already and once Walmart buys the government, all your furnishings can be replaced by those of the Martha Stewart variety, tout de suite.


Just watch your back and guard your Thomas-O'Brien-for-Target-loving heart.

March Madness, Wedding Edition.



{Take a gander at our gaga gorgeous groomal flowers from last weekend. J' adore.}


Well friends, it’s now wedding month, or as I like to call it, March Madness. We sure have a lot to do…moving, packing for the honeymoon, logistics and delegating on the wedding day, blah, blah, blah.


We have never done this before. And, since we plan on never doing it again, we have to make it perfect (ie, low stress/enjoyable/organized) the first time. What advice do you have for us?


Please, let’s let YOU run YOUR little know-it-all mouths around here for once.
