I’d line that scape, if you know what I mean. Ha!

Oh, man. Ohhhhh, man. This would be so, so perfect in my Scandinavian dining room. DIY, perhaps?

Eeeeeeek!

How odd. Pink floral tigers and pretty wallpaper is exactly what I think about before sleeping, too.

Since siding hell began, I’ve been trying to look past the 102 temps and sweat and aching back (really! I’m trying!) and see the bright side of things. Today, as we’ve finished just TWO rows of siding, I’ve found three good things I love about siding:

1. Tearing down existing siding can uncover some ridiculously cool signage. I’m totally using a photo of this logo as artwork in my future office!

2. I’m pretty sure we invented a new (killer!) yoga position. I like to call this one ‘Squatting Bull Hidden Tiger’ and it’s quite the workout. My yoga instructor would be so, so proud. Send on the royalties!

3. If we hadn’t rolled out of bed at 5am to beat the heat last week, we wouldn’t have seen the pretty morning fog.
It’s the small things, yes? Back at it — hopefully we’ll have more than two rows to share in a few days!
