Grass in the House

Every week, Desire To Inspire has this pets on furniture thing. Cute, sure... this week a wonderful reader submitted this charming image of her dog (no, I am not going to rip on her dog):

  
Any guesses as to what the chair is covered with?

Grass. Faux grass to be exact.

WHAT THE FUCK??

This is seriously weird. Imagine how uncomfortable it would feel. That, and is the colour of a dying lawn.

Not what I'd call an attractive design statement. I wonder if she mows it??

White or Cream?

Bleh.
I have been busy. I just started a new job, and although I am not going to give details, it is making me loose faith in humanity a little bit.

Thankfully, pretty things are restoring that faith a little bit....

From DesireToInpire
Me likey! I have a thing for stripes at the moment. I think the room would look nicer with that fabric if the walls were a light shade of cream (for some reason, I can't make the images go side by side):




Resene 'Apricot White'
Or:

  
Resene 'Popcorn (2008)'

And this:


From Opal Never Shouts
Though it seems to be missing something... tufting? No? Another colour? (I'm thinking green with some flowers).... I'm not quite sure... I guess it depends what else is in the space but not in the photo.

Anyway.... I am going to crawl to bed now.... so very tired :(

Just a random whinge...

From The Love Shop, via La Dolce Vita.

So true!! Especially if you are like me and have a tenancy to blow everything out of proportion and stress over it.

At the moment, getting my package from the damn courier is seemingly impossible. Apparently they can't deliver it because no one is home (lies!). Fine, so they leave a note to call and arrange pick up. I can't call the number because I have no credit on my mobile (we don't have a landline. I regret that now), so I text flatmate at work. Yes, she will ring, "what's the number?" I can't reply because I have run out of texts. I can't top up until tomorrow.

On a different but still impossible note, my Internet bill still hasn't been charged to my credit card... it's now overdue. I'm waiting on hold to see why.

Apparently some things aren't meant to be done.

Whinge over.
