Decorating Style & Big Storm

Here's a fun test to find your decorating style. I was excited to take this test - I didn't know what to expect since I'm still trying to find my style I think.

I ended up being Classic Chic..."You combine period influences with 'clever solutions' to the practicalities of day-to-day modern living."

I don't even know if I understand that. Does it sound like me to you? It's starting to sink in and I think it's me. Does "clever solutions" mean repurposed...I think so. Curbside? Garage sale? Yup, this is me.

If you take the test will you share with me what your style is please.
Let me tell you we had a whopper of a storm here last night. I thought we might get our roof torn off. I think we're fortunate to have electricity as a lot of the valley does not. My patio umbrellas flew across the lawn and got beaten up, my potted Sofie Jr. tree ended up in the pool and many branched from the front yard tree were ripped off. Got to love the AZ monsoon season!!! Shortly after midnight the lightening was endless. I did my usual, flash...1 elephant, 2 elephant, 3 elephant. I don't know how accurate that is but always do it. When I figured the strikes were 3 miles away I started wondering how Cheryl W. or Allison D.to my south were or Wendy T. to my north. As much as I love thunder and lightening, when it gets really close it's scarey. SLK has already cleaned up the mess and we're off and running on a new day. Hope your's is great.

Hi Marysue! I love your new look, that is kind of funny that you felt the storm so bad, here in the West I hardly even noticed it, must have been a small pocket. Thanks for bidding on our auction, can you believe all the outpoor of love for these two? Anyway I hope you win the giveaway!

When I said the new look I should have clarified that I meant the new blog design, it's different than the last time I checked in with you. Have a great day!
