Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

Pottery Barn Current Gray Crushes

I got a new Pottery Barn catalog in the mail and you know what that means...it's time to look at my Current Crushes!

Let's peruse PotteryBarn.com

I saw these dishes in gray and literally gasped but I'm still dealing with my unwieldy Cambria which is an inch bigger than these so I chose to drool over the serving bowl and platter for guests that we'll never entertain.



I scrolled past this Willow Square Basket and my heart started racing.


Our bathroom has similar coloring and while our current trashcan is very similar in shape, it was painted and just didn't turn out the way we wanted.  I'm hoping it comes down a little more on price because even on sale for $41, I'm still too cheap to pay it.

I have your typical cheap "boob lights" in the kitchen, front hall and at the top of the stairs.  I've been searching high and low for a flush mount that I actually like.  I may have found it...


The PB Classic Flushmount with Ribbed Glass is very similar to what I was looking for especially after seeing a pendant version in the home we stayed in on Martha's Vineyard.  Mama's gonna have to wait for a serious sale first though.

I love this Gray Fringed Hand-Loomed Rug

At some point we're taking the antique area rug out of the living room to see if the allergies I have with my eyes are from the flooring or the rug.  If it's the rug, then I'd like this one to replace it since it says it's soft underfoot and I do miss that since ours is scratchy.

Well, I guess I should stop looking at the catalog because that'll just get me in trouble!

What are you crushing on?

  1. I actually like the light you found here and I am not opposed to checking that rug out too, actually. It might be nice to have a softer rug. But I would want to see it in person first.

  2. These are so pretty! I really like the basket -- perfect for your bathroom. I'll be interested to see if the rug you currently have is causing your allergies. That's a perfect reason to get this new rug! =o)
