I have much I need to say and catch up on...but not today! Today, I simply want to post a few images of what's happening in my world - doing a lot of soul searching, examination of where I am going in 2013! Happy Wednesday!<br />

Well, as I type that, I realize January has come and gone AND with it my deadlines for several projects!!! On the "to be completed" list...some of which has not been in my control (urgghh!)
<ul>
<li>Putting our house on the market...deadline was January 31st...BUT that didn't happen because...</li>
<li>We JUST got most, NOT ALL, of our home repairs complete last week from storm damage...new roof, gutters, siding, etc...we still have one issue left and we will be ready!!!! </li>
<li>New website/blog up and running for DHB design studio...this has been totally a TIME FACTOR for me and somewhat difficult to finalize! God has been placing so many changes on my heart about the direction of my company, my family, my ministries...that it has a been a process to weed certain things out and to feel like the end result is exactly how I want it to be...so hopefully, SOON!!!</li>
<li>Need to clean out the kid's closets...again - why do they have to grow so fast???
</li></ul>
<p>I'm sure I can add lots more to this list...but I keep telling myself one thing at a time...Here are a few things I have been up to in the month of January...enjoy!</p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 291px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5709093590306155362" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLmFvGER_4pcdUhdKCqJ890vlm1l9vDiUvUEUhONy5XEz8NSfmcTZqOobI1KsEVZzcQvpE0nF9tkEsRg2B2u8xg45pn_5hFY9s_8VI320g19SLxI6DbGL5WVaxii-gFrRnjng9_t-MDwJ1/s400/MSP+Board+1+for+blog.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 291px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5709093621341784658" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZCRZ72Z5Fl__z2bIRbJ-Tu6FH5VIsISZZscGnihUICrrd-P-gJJUXxFSmDaBxRA6cgeDxHjd5W8od_tI6WaZP4lRiQbDMa_HaioQe30RcqJ_6a0m_ngIc6nldhC2hQNbH83_rrXwQGbc3/s400/MSP+Board+3+blog.jpg" />A few design boards from a recent client project...contact me for E-Design services!!!

I love the quote by missionary Jim Elliott..."Where ever you are, be all there!" I am trying to practice this daily! </p>

I've got several things in the works...so I'm hoping to get things more settled this month! One obvious change is the look of this blog...it's a little bit chaotic but please hang in...I'm attempting to make some changes all by myself!!! Another big change is my DHB Designs website...which if you click on that little tab on the right, you will quickly find it is not there - changes in the works there as well so if you need my design services, please message me here or email me! LOTS of changes for 2012...good changes - changes I believe the Lord has been placing on my heart for some time now...guess I better quit fighting and just get on board with Him! Happy Wednesday!

I must say this last year has been a up and down year. Many changes, the biggest one being I am about to be a mom of THREE - something I had not planned on...so it has been a year of "leaning" on the Lord and trusting in His plan instead of my own. God is good and I am blessed beyond measure when I think of all I have. Right now I'm sitting at home with my two wonderful kiddos...one of which is "cleaning" my house for me because she said "it's your birthday and you shouldn't have to clean on your birthday"...my sweet five year old girl - she makes me smile!!! My oldest has some big ideas about the two of them baking a birthday cake for me...on their own - we'll see how that goes :) My daughter keeps asking me what I want for my birthday...I told her just to be with my family and chill out tonight - which wasn't an acceptable answer so here are a few things on my wish list, plus a few more things I'm saving up for:</div><div><span style="color:#000000;"></span> </div><div>Some new sunglasses since I just broke my $5 Target pair....they lasted a year which is pretty amazing - mine typically don't make it through the summer!

I will probably be taking more time away from this blog in the coming month as we prayerfully consider changes that we want to make in 2011...including changes to this blog! So many wonderful books and sites that I have been using to help us in this journey - looking forward to sharing those with you soon! I hope you have a wonderful week - we are snowed in here and loving it!

Also decorated a house for Christmas with the help of a sweet design friend, Amanda...we really had fun and it turned out beautiful - will share those pics when I download from my camera!
I am going to be taking some time off to enjoy the holidays with my family...I pray that each of you will take the time to remember the true meaning of Christmas!

My problem is this...my five year old has resorted to picking up random objects around the house and "wrapping" them (which consists of a little ribbon, glue, random boxes she finds) and placing them under the tree! In fact at this very moment I spy one of her baby doll cradles being used as a "box" for a present which is actually a book she pulled off the shelf in the playroom,ha! Gotta love kids!

Here is a run down of my day....
Started off with some laundry in my new washer and dryer...is it wrong to say that you are "in LOVE" with an appliance? Can I say this just might be the BEST gift I've ever received!

Next, I had breakfast with this lovely little kitty cat...I even had to feed her the milk, ha...notice that "bed head"...she just crawled out of bed to get ready for school!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8c0td0Zm7A7XFMF5UxO75NevnQ8zMjPxwnfGnnic4aoVC455Pz23dpavWyuNWWF4R_qJ-iXiipiWS3QKW4KWAvwmGf02c1iAYORzIoai5dynnpa7YxjjNyBlHJ9oZ9pNE7Afvton_XBFr/s1600/Liv.bmp"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548041805905098402" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8c0td0Zm7A7XFMF5UxO75NevnQ8zMjPxwnfGnnic4aoVC455Pz23dpavWyuNWWF4R_qJ-iXiipiWS3QKW4KWAvwmGf02c1iAYORzIoai5dynnpa7YxjjNyBlHJ9oZ9pNE7Afvton_XBFr/s400/Liv.bmp" /></a>
Next stop after dropping off at school was Joann's in search of trim for a client's window treatment...but I have no pictures because I was so overwhelmed by the sheer amount of craft stuff!!! Then I made a stop at a shop that has really beautiful items...only most of it is out of my budget as well as my client's budget, but I love to go in a look....this is what I found - a mirror that would be PERFECT for a client's master bedroom (we've been searching for a while) only it is out of the budget - FOR now...we'll see what else we can find!

This is a snapshot of a sofa that I'm dreaming about....my family room walls are about the same color of the walls you see and this fabric is a stain resistant <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Sunbrella</span> (outdoor) fabric...if you could see my existing sofa you would agree that it needs a major makeover - this fabric would do nicely!!!!

Olivia and I are just about to start some cinnamon rolls! We made some dough on Sunday with the book "Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day"...we've already made a whole wheat sandwich bread so we are gonna try something SWEET! Let you know how it turns out!!!
Post edit:
The book is <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Healthy-Bread-Five-Minutes-Day/dp/0312545525"><span style="color:#006600;">Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day</span></a>...it is awesome and has gluten free recipes...I know my local library had it so I imagine you could check the Knox County Library...I purchased my from Amazon and have not regretted it! Good luck ladies!!!

The holidays are fast approaching and I'm trying to get organized and ahead of the game this year! Our schedule is about to hit hyper speed...my husband coaches high school basketball and that officially began last week - I'm feeling the pinch in my schedule!!! I've been fighting a cold for two weeks now and I am behind...so today I am spending most of the day getting my house clean...so in the spirit of getting clean and organized, here are a few things on my wish list (does Santa do cleaning supplies???)
<div><div>Loving these clear, lockable bins from the container store...could use these for <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">soooo</span> many things<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0YVGMmWHIR18cD2R0Urv2qkmf3Uh_3S3uI2vCtibAHVRrksaNMccy97jHrG8WKRtp5CAHXNtHbAEngvMm-upYn-4LOL50gDLNDfwVJtmpI0rdSJLg2UkjL0S6t-GYdCYlUnd3ZvFDzJ2S/s1600/ClearStorageContainHandle_l.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 260px; HEIGHT: 301px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537226138985019170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0YVGMmWHIR18cD2R0Urv2qkmf3Uh_3S3uI2vCtibAHVRrksaNMccy97jHrG8WKRtp5CAHXNtHbAEngvMm-upYn-4LOL50gDLNDfwVJtmpI0rdSJLg2UkjL0S6t-GYdCYlUnd3ZvFDzJ2S/s400/ClearStorageContainHandle_l.jpg" /></a></div><div> I've also been eyeing these Rhino Trunks for the kids...with a little one on the way we are gonna be converting a playroom into a nursery soon if our house does not sell....so these would be perfect at the foot of their beds to keep all their favorite stuff!!!

Which is probably why I came down with a little cold, but I think I am finally on the mend now! I last posted on my trip to the Country Living Fair in Atlanta...can I just say - I was really disappointed! Did anyone else go??? What were your thoughts? I only found a hand full of vendors that really stood out and were unique - other than that, I'm not sure I will be going back! Yeah, it was that disappointing! Oh well, I did have a nice trip with my mom so it wasn't a total waste!
So, that's it for today - exciting I know! Happy November!!!Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13267227787400213195noreply@blogger.com1
