The floor is in!
We finally have the flooring installed in the craft/workroom. As you all might recall, we had purchased this flooring from Ikea...

| Tundra flooring. |
The Tundra flooring is a "floating" floor...so not happening on our uneven concrete floors in our basement, especially since there is nothing to anchor the 1st row to since the back wall is concrete as well. So, on to plan B...12 inch vinyl stick on tiles. We picked a neutral color tile by Armstrong backed by a lifetime guarantee. So easy to install, and it does stick so be sure it is where you want it.
We love how it turned out, so we are planning on running it into the hall and utility area as well.

| In the room. |
Tomorrow we plan to tackle the hall and utility room, and get the shelving/cabinets for the craft/workroom installed. Then the fun begins...organizing everything...my favorite part, hubby's-not so much!
Also, thought I'd show you one of my inspiration pieces for my new office (that has yet to be completed since I've put it on hold, and everything I seem to want is on backorder!).
We purchased this print from an artist in Savannah while we were there. Love all the colors, and if I'd taken our Cairn and asked him to paint her...this is exactly how it would have turned out.
I just love it! Makes me smile every time I walk into the room. Hopefully in the next week I can get some of these projects completed to show you. Our youngest, the jetsetter, is off again on Monday...this time for a leadership conference in Orlando! I just finished her laundry from NY!!
Piri Reis map
The Piri Reis Map is a famous pre-modern world map created by 16th century Ottoman-Turkish admiral and cartographer Piri Reis.
The map shows part of the western coasts of Europe and North Africa with reasonable accuracy, and the coast of Brazil is also easily recognizable.
Various Atlantic islands including the Azores and Canary Islands are depicted, as is the mythical island of Antillia.
The map is noteworthy for its depiction of a southern landmass that some controversially claim is evidence for early awareness of the existence of Antarctica.
Some scholars claim this and other maps support a theory of global exploration by a pre-classical undiscovered civilization. [Source]
Jab Teri Yaad aayi Toh...
FIONA Crystal's Love.♫♪ ♥ ♥¸¸.•¨• Palkon par aansuon ko sajaya na jaa saka.Uss ko bhi dil ka haal bataya na jaa saka.Zakhmon se bhara tha yeh dil mera.Ek zakham bhi uss ko dikhaaya na jaa saka.Jab teri yaad aayi toh koshish ke bawajood aankho mein aansuon ko chupaya na jaa saka.Kuch logo ko zindagi main bhulaya na jaa saka.♫♪ ♥ ♥¸¸.•¨•

Summer Reading! Delivering Hope: The Exraordinary Journey of a Surrogate Mom by Pamela MacPhee: A LaMothe Book Review
Delivering Hope: The Exraordinary Journey of a Surrogate Mom by Pamela MacPhee is truly inspiring. Although her story starts in 2000, little has changed within the surrogacy world especially for those carrying for their relatives. As Pam is telling her own story she is also sharing the very important steps needed to start and complete such a venture. She very candidly tells of her medical and psychological screenings, legal proceedings, the medications and embryo transfer as well as her relationship with her cousin and his wife plus other family and friends. Although not every woman who has ever experienced surrogacy has the same tale to tell, any reader will get an exceptional overview of all that surrogacy entails. Being a past Gestational Carrier myself (twice), I can honestly say that each surrogacy experience has it's own challenges and rewards!
