WELCOME

I like to write; it's a fact that I'd almost forgotten during these last few topsy turvy years as a grad student. I have a journal that I write in, so why have I decided to try my hand at blogging? Why would anyone care about what I have to say? What weighs so heavily on my soul that it must be penned? I don't have the answers to those questions, but I do know that I've been touched (not necessarily in a profound way...perhaps it was just a laugh or a thought that made me pause) by several blogs/articles/writings in which people were just sharing their feelings, discussing situations and providing a glimpse to the things they deem important. I may not know those people or may have never had such intimate conversations with them, but their words provided something I needed at a particular place and time. I often wonder if it's vain to think that something I write could touch somebody. Maybe it is, but if I never publish I'd never know. Besides all that, this blog provides me an outlet to discuss and share random stuff that I find cool. So that's why I'm here...Welcome!!!

60s Inspired Bathroom

I got random inspiration today for my downstairs half bath at TJMAXX. Searching through their books, I found The 60s, A Photo Journey Through the Swinging Sixties. I have been searching for calendars and large coffee table books to find pictures to serve as artwork for my new place. The 60s has amazing pictures documenting many notable events of the decade. I immediately bought it because I love the decade: the Civil Rights Movement, Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, the Black Panthers, the Temptations, Motown and men's skinny leg pants and cardigans. I've gone through the book and selected the black and white pictures I'll use for the bathroom. I'm excited. I'll have a sixties inspired bathroom. Below is the type of picture arrangement I'm going for and a few pictures similar to the pictures I'll use.
