52 Weeks of Floor Plans --- Week 48!!!

(A little behind, but catching up!)

The last 3 weeks, I have been on the move, hence the reason for the delay!
First, I drove to Massachusetts to see my sister and her adorable family for a very important ballet recital.  I had an amazing time and wished I could stay for forever!

So this design is what I would do to her garage so I could have a permanent place to stay if I could secretly move up there! 


I would be perfectly content sleeping on a couch like this:
This eco-friendly sofa from Viva Terra will have to be my next sofa. Not only is it great modern styling. It also has two full twin sleepers, perfect for company.

And have a mini kitchen...
teeny tiny and tall, and so very bright - everything is within reach in this #ikea kitchen

And a teeny bathroom with a shower like this...
Basement bathroom - shower tile + built in shelving tucked into corner, great for small space

And then I could enjoy my summer doing this every sunny day!

Lions & Tigers & Bears...

T & D's Cats of the World! Over the last few years (since finishing grad school and actually acquiring free time), I've been expanding my knowledge of the area and venturing to new places.  Today I got the opportunity to visit T&D's Cats of the World, an animal refuge for exotic felines and wildlife - only $10 a person.  I've always wanted to see a black bear in the wilderness, so for now, this will have to do.   It was a warm day, so one of the many bears decided to chill in the pool. Baby Patagonian! Selfie with the deer!  Bengal Tiger! 2 Bears chilling... I feel like they were like us, just waiting to see another species walk by the fence for a look.   "Hey Bob, look, here come some more humans!" Bear Selfie! Lion! It's sad to see the animals engaged, but at least they are in a better habitat than their previous homes. Totally worth the drive and a nice way to spend the afternoon!

52 Weeks of Floor Plans - Week 4!

Welcome! Every week for the next year, I will be posting an original floor plan and designs that reflect my belief in simple living.   I've been toying with the idea of buying land and building a small cottage, or starter home, that I can use one day as a studio or guest house.  I've found a few inspirational images from Houzz and Pinterest that really fuel the designs, and I hope you enjoy!   Week 4! As my obsession with cottage designs continues, this week I'm inspired more by the beach and water, and thought of a plan that reflected this new inspiration.   Saturday I spent the morning kayaking on a lake with a college friend, and I would love to have a small dwelling along the water.  Lake Jean I would love to stick with natural earth tones, and add pops of blue, like the image below.

In 6 weeks you can...Run a 5k!

2013 was supposed to be a year of greatness, and it started off right... until February. My love life flipped upside down, and after a week of feeling like hell, I found a challenge to bring me back.  My thoughts were... 6 weeks to take out my frustration and anger by pounding pavement (or in my case the treadmill.)  The timing couldn't have been better, for it was the start of Lent, and I've never been one to stick to something.  I was determined, I was motivated, and I found a schedule that was completely manageable. So February 18th was the start of 6 weeks of discovery.  Could I do this?  I was never a runner - the opposite actually.  I was the girl in high school who would get a doctor's note using her asthma as an excuse to get out of running the mile, and then the next year, would run 3 laps claiming to have done 4 for a passing grade.  I figured this would last a week or two, never 6!  Every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday for 6 wee...
