Did Statins Help?

Pardon if this is riddled with typos but it's 2:30am. I got my lipid blood test results back yesterday.  I'm going to assume heading into perimenopause years shot my numbers up because nothing has changed food wise (though stress wise it's been astronomical the past few years which apparently contributes as well). A reminder, I was at 264 at the beginning of December and my shuck and jive speech to get my shit together didn't land well with her.  After a talk with my bestie who is on them convinced me (us) with her experience, I relented and agreed to go on them. After almost 4 months on a 10mg dose (the lowest dose available), I'm at 184.  So, I guess they work.  😂   I will also say this is with zero dietary changes and a pretty scattered workout schedule the past two months.  I hope in time when all of the projects are done and we are finally able to focus on ourselves that I can eventually go off of them with hard work.   I'm pleased with...

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?

    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.

    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)
