There’s that old saying, “I need a vacation from my vacation!” and it couldn’t be more true today.  My house is such a mess right now, the suitcases are still not unpacked, the laundry is crazy out of control, the stack of bills needs paid, the emails are many, the piles are mounting, and I’m still recovering from that exhausting red-eye return flight across the country.   Why do the kids bounce back so much faster?  

With fun and functional organization on the brain this week I wrote about it over at BH&G, here are the two most recent articles: 

Also, for a fun diversion there’s a quiz I spotted online which will diagnose your organization personality.  I was hoping for the question “what is the organizational state of your home?” and the choice of “total disaster” but it wasn’t there so I turned out to be a “party planner” type.

Happy weekend everyone!  I’m on my way home from NYC today (saw some great stuff!) that I’ll share next week.  Meanwhile, I have to show you my latest home décor acquisition that I have to admit, is totally trendy!  Have you noticed all the home accents that are popping up everywhere that come from geological formations?  I couldn’t help but notice some rad ones on my latest shopping trip to HomeGoods, so they came home with me, check them out below! 

Today I’m giving a brief geology “lesson” and talking about jewelry for the home in the form of agate, quartz, and petrified wood accents over at Centsational Style.
