this is called procrastination

Yes, this is another post about online shelter magazines. Rue, to be specific.

I should be packing...but I'm easily distracted. My *plan* is to pack up my entire bedroom and the majority of my knick knacks to take down to my parent's house when I leave Sunday. I'll be back at the end of April to pack up the rest of the apartment, but I'm subletting my bedroom while I travel to Paraguay in a few weeks so that room needs to be completely emptied minus the furniture. We'll see how the *plan* goes....

Just writing the prior paragraph reminded me about the tremendous amount of work that needs to get done and how I am seriously procrastinating so onto less stressful things...

I like the way Rue styles the interiors they shoot, I also like the way they lay them out in the magazine. There's something about them that just feels really nice. I think it's the simplicity of the pages that really helps showcase the photography. To me, Rue is full of eye candy. And I like eye candy...

fresh start, fresh spaces

I realize it's been over a year since my last post...ha. I did a few things in the last year too, traveled to Europe with my middle sister, watched my youngest sister graduate from high school, watched her leave on a gap year to Paraguay, celebrated 6 years of being with my boyfriend, turned another year older, work, work, work, quit my job (something I should have done a long time ago), and now I'm moving back down to Southern California to re-focus my life and figure out what I really want to do. Blogging may or may not be one of those things....but you never know, maybe I will feel more inspired now that I'm on to new and exciting things. Or rather, let's hope I'm feeling more inspired because the past eight months at my old job have been anything but inspiring!

Today I just felt like posting some pictures that do inspire me. I'm a little behind on my online magazine reading so these pictures aren't new, but they were new and pretty to me!
lonny, rue
