To Trade Or Not To Trade...which will it be for me?

In between my house calls today, I thought that I would stop over 
and see what goes on during the day right where I want to open a small showroom.
While fidgeting through my bag looking for a ciggy and a lighter....
I needed to find a shady spot to smoke so that i could 
get a real feel of the foot traffic.
And what do you know???
A BIG LADY IN BOCA WITH BIG HAIR!!!!
Perfect. I will fit right under her hair and stay a while.

And I stood here smoking and dreaming really good dreams.
I said; "I belong here."
"I can do this."

The space I am pretty set on is right where the pink line is
and stops right above the street

And right across the street is Siberian Floors
-a trade showroom.

Speaking of Showrooms,
this one is fantastic. They only do wood....
and will be directly across from me. 
The finishes are to die for. You really haven't seen anything like their finishes.

Twilight Bay - Twilight Zone?


This is a new collection and on my selling floor at work.
The finish color is fabulous.
'DRIFTWOOD'
It is right on target with the new design trends.....
but is it too early for the general public?


The finish is sandblasted wood.
It is VERY textured 
and very smooth.
But it looks rough.
It takes the finish beautifully.


'Stool Love'
{hahahahah}
No,
really I love these stools.
They are sooooo industrial.
And they come counter height. and bar height.



Both the counter height table and this cocktail table
are toped with burnished stainless steel.
Extremely exciting to me.
It is a nice change from every other durable top.

This does scratch so
No Brillo please!


These chests come in two different sizes. 
The larger one 
{in the middle}
is designed to house media.

I think if we design bloggers could arrange to have all people 
wear sleeping helmets that played over and over 
our ideas regarding interior design-
People {the general public} just might finally  'get it.'
You know,
 the furniture companies are listening to design bloggers
when they design their new lines.
I think it would only be fair and balanced if we could pass out 
our very own 'design trend sleeping helmets'

Zip It, And Forget It


This bed comes in 13 colors and is stain resistant.

The perfect bed to get into
Zip up
And forget the rest of the world.
….Maybe.

It reminds me of a giant poofie sleeping bag.

Crazy right?

tonights' 60 minutes....


I have watched Christopher Hitchens
on every news channel there is. 
.....And in complete awe.
He is a writer and a serious politico.
Me, 
I definitely do not agree with his politics.
I have found myself cursing him out on the tele.

But, having had a crush on him 
since the first time I found him in an interview on a cable news show...

He is so brilliant, and sexy. 
His brilliance is what makes him so sexy

I have been wondering where the heck he had been lately...
He is more than a bit of a bad boy....
And tonight on 60 minutes I found out.



it is cancer.
He is 61 years young.

If you want to know more about who he is click on the links below.


more on 


And it that wasn't sad enough.....


....More on the homeless families in Florida.

Kids coming home from school 
and finding that their homes had been locked and boarded up.


(homeless kids take the bus)

The stories are heartbreaking.
And there 
"but for the grace of g-d go I"



Make your gratitude list tonight and read it tomorrow too.

Kiss your loved ones both large and small.
The situation is so hard out there.

I know that no one wants to look at this or hear about it.
Tonight this piece on families that had lost their homes 
to foreclosure just broke me up.
....the shame on the kids faces....
  the pain and shame these poor parents are feeling...

When will things really turn around 
for all Americans ?
