A Few Fun Finds

I really hope this doesn't hurt your eyes but we're day #2 at TCH, Bowen is in bed, and I'm apparently teaching myself HTML code. #normal. But I digress-- these are a list of twelve things you need from Amazon. I love every single one of them and a few of them have gotten us through day #1 and #2 here! Have fun shopping :)

Can I just click my heels and everything look like this? I'm 99% sure the bar will be black subway tile. Which is kind of crazy. But with my faucet from Amazon I think it could work. Thoughts?

Of course I'm going to talk about Beautycounter because duh, obsessed. But I rounded up a few of my latest obsessions for ya. 1) Beautycounter Kids Collection: This is a game changer for bath/shower time. The kids love picking out the different colors and even boys LOVE the conditioner (especially curly hair!). You can get it through my website www.beautycounter.com/ryanndetamore The best part is that it's totally free of 1500 harmful chemicals and safe for everyone. 2) 14K Rose. Not only does it come in THE cutest cans, but it has no sugar in it. Whatsoever. No added junk, no added sugar, and no residual sugar. So you can feel good drinking it at the pool, at a bach party, at home, on a trip. Wherever. I have a ton at home so just let me know if you ever want one! You can get them here as well www.scoutandcellar.com/ryanndetamore 3) GIANT Connect Four Game. To keep your kids entertained for hours outside (or inside). It comes in handy for birthday parties, playd...

I can't figure out a hashtag for my parents house so for now we will say #cheenadrive. It's been a rough Monday over here (#kids) but I thought maybe blogging about interiors (which is what started this blog anyways) would be relaxing for me. And anyways I love getting opinions because I hate making decisions. Here are some inspiration pictures for my parent's mudroom/laundry/pantry situation. LIGHT GRAY???!!!!! I had my heart set on dark dark slate like so: AMAZON MONTAUK From Home Depot and on budget-- check. But then I saw the light gray mudroom above with the matte black hardware and I was like yes. Give that to me. FLOOR AND DECOR CONCEPT GRAY Or I can do in between? See I need help. FLOOR & DECOR SAMBA What say you? Also, Suzanne if you are reading this chime in, please.

I have too many ideas. And I tend to execute them all at once. Writing a song (Miranda, where are you?), starting a diet, selling wine, selling beauty, focusing on the kids, taking time with Brett, fundraising. Repeat. Then repeat again. And more. Too many ideas and things and I get so overwhelmed. And I have more things I want to do. And accomplish. How do y'all juggle life? I decided to delete Facebook and Instagram off my phone for a break. I still allow myself to get on them on my computer because I find that's when I actually have time to check it. And my goal is to make it until April 1. I can't run my businesses without them on my phone really but I just got so worn down. Worn down from too many ideas. Too many opinions. Too many messages. Lack of sleep. Worrying. Within all my ideas is our normal life- therapy, school, dishes, laundry, rebuilding two houses, Brett's new business. But it's like I HAVE TO EXECUTE ALL MY IDEAS. How do I chil...

Sucked. Bowen has been seizure free on her medicine since 2016. Then in the middle of nap time, she seized just as similar as she had when she first got diagnosed. Two minutes and twenty seconds. It didn't hit me until a few minutes ago. When I decided to pick up my computer and write this. I have no idea why. We haven't really told many people yet or processed it fully. Everyone knows how much I love the STARS program. How much they have meant to us. Not only did they handle everything perfectly, but they caught the seizure during her sleep, took the best care of Bowen anyone could have, and comforted Brett and I in ways we can never thank them enough. Because of her teacher's write up about the seizure (love you Meredith), her doctor was able to pinpoint EXACTLY what happened, what was going on in her brain, and what her future plans are. Everything is day by day. We've known that since the beginning. But I feel like we've been in this blissful no seizure ...
