You must be wondering why I’m writing a post on Sunday. You say, “What? She doesn’t post on the weekends!” Well, let me tell you something. When you are casually browsing one of your all-time favorite design blogs and discover YOUR HOUSE on the main page from Friday, October 1, 2010….you immediately write a post! {After unsuccessfully trying to wake your sleeping spouse from a deep sleep to share the news with him/her first, of course.}
I was just catching up on my weekly Apartment Therapy reading only to see a picture of my dining area about 10 posts deep on the home page. My immediate reaction was “What the heck?! I just got a new computer and it’s going beserk already!” I was inclined to think it was a fluke. However, I quickly realized that there were actual words that went with the photo…words like “Dana” and “House*Tweaking”. See for yourself. That’s when I started having trouble breathing and doing that weird thing that {I thought only} Miss America pageant winners do. You know. Jaw drops, shaky hands come up over the mouth and all of a sudden she seems hideously ugly. Only I wasn’t wearing a sequined evening gown {I know, odd for a Midwestern mother of two late on a Saturday night} nor did I have hemorrhoid cream under my eyes and Vaseline on my teeth.
I think I even reached up to keep my invisible rhinestone crown from slipping off my head.
