As we are cleaning and sorting and purging to prepare for the movers, it's hard not to think about "how I'll do it next time." For one, I'll keep the house cleaner right from the start. It's not that I want to make up a chore chart… it's just that I can totally see how a chore chart could be instrumental to getting things done.

It's also so easy to start dreaming of this magic (and yet to be discovered) apartment we'll decorate in San Diego. I went through my 50 pages of flickr faves yesterday to pull some images from special spaces.

This reminds me of the mosaic I made up for our wedding back in the beginning. That mosaic sort of kept me on track, so maybe this one will too.

Loving : dark gray, teal, yellow, neutrals, soft patterns & flowers.

    Its really beautiful, I want to give one a go for re-doing my living room. Having a chose chart is useful although mine is in my head which makes is less scary and domesticated.

    Thanks for posting that lovely mosaic and helping me (temporarily) redirect my brain to focus on decor and “nesting” ideas for my new apartment in San Diego. I have been so engulfed by the search for the apartment itself, that I haven’t taken much time to enjoy the process and daydream about what I want to do there; how I want to make it my own.
    So far good leads… rent.com, apartments.com, and mynewplace.com
    Happy hunting!
