I was up to my ears annoyed today by people, and so that's why I wrote today's post about manners...and yanno what, it felt good! Otherwise, I do blogging binges too, where I sit for hours going through everything that I've missed from my faves. <br /><br />As for furniture, when I moved back to LA, I got all the big stuff at Ashley Furnite, and I did the majority of my smaller stuff (kitchenware, bath towels, bath mats, throw pillows) at Cost Plus World Market. I found my bed stuff at Bed Bath & Beyond and then all the after thought stuff at Target! Hope that helps give you some ideas of places to browse!!Lacey in the Citynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-34121102912639243462013-03-26T16:06:39.614-04:002013-03-26T16:06:39.614-04:00oh my goodness! that's exciting. is it an ass...oh my goodness! that's exciting. is it an assignment?

As great of a multitasker I (along with everyone in our generation) thinks I am, everything goes smoother when I just FOCUS. One thing at a time. Knowing I can't move on to the next thing until I finish the first, well, it's incentive for me to hurry it up and just focus! :)Tina Bylandhttp://likeordinarylife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-56231633404566385692013-03-26T12:21:47.674-04:002013-03-26T12:21:47.674-04:00Congratulations on your own apartment!!

Exciting, but I had a serious stress-out moment this morning about all the things we had to do (I know I'm stressed when my husband looks at me and says, "I wish I could pour you a glass of wine right now"). It always helps me get organized when I make an outlined to-do list - big task on top, all the supporting sub-tasks below, and as much as I can, I put dates next to the subtasks so I know when I need to get them done and then start actually putting them into my datebook so I know I've got the time built in to get them done. It sounds a little compulsive, but it actually helps me stay on top of things. I'm excited to see what people post about house inspiration for you - we're on Houzz and I subscribe to a number of design blogs, but we need some new resources for upcoming renovations. Oh yeah, I have to add that onto the to-do list, too... :pkcsalingnoreply@blogger.com
