Inspiration Room & Getting Closer To My 100th Post!!

Hi blog pals!
Whew! The last few days have been a whirlwind for me!
Praise the Lord the tax stuff is finally done for another year!
I spent the last three days back and forth to town getting everything in order and mailed on time!
When I woke up this morning.....I woke up so tired!
I feel much better now....but had to grab a little power nap first!
Finally the sun is shining again.....the birds are even singing...they are happy it's shining too! :)

I ran across this picture I had saved for future reference should I ever want to re-do our room....
Remember the red room with the stars on the quilt?
Well, I've loved this quilt like forever....but I also really love the coverelets that are more Colonial inspired....just thought I'd share this photo with you....it's not my room it's one I found on the Country Sampler website a while back.....isn't it pretty?
I have seriously thought about re-painting our room a much lighter color from the dark red I have now....?? Our bed is one quite like this too....and there's that old aqua color (on the tall armoire/cabinet) lately....remember? Of course I'd keep my trunk at the foot of the bed like now....and I'm not wild about the arrangement over the bed in this picture but it has some elements I do like....remember the blanket chest we had in the shop and at one of the shows?
Wouldn't it look quite similar in shape to what is beside the bed here?
Still pondering on painting the bed black or not.....but before we get to this room we are re-doing the kid's bathroom first........Oh! I have been thinking of my 100th post give-away that will be coming up before too long.....
If you'd like to participate I will be drawing a name from the list of followers to my blog.....
I'm so sorry I will not be able to ship outside the US....shipping has absolutely gone through the roof! So if you've been thinking you might would like to join my blog "officially" as one of my following friends....I'd be happy for you to do so!
Then you will have the same oppourtunity to be drawn as the others that have been faithful blog following friends!
Thank you to each of you that read my blog.....I always look forward to seeing that you've stopped by and left a comment to my posts.....stop in as often as you like!
I appreciate the interest!

Have a lovely rest of the week!
