Chowdah and Chili keep looking down the hall waiting for her to come barrelling down for breakfast. As if that's not depressing enough, today is the day that I pledged to get back on the exercise wagon.

In honor of Downton Abbey and my friend Sally from across the pond, I perused my beloved Pinterest for photos of English Country decor, which I absolutely love. housekaboodle I think I need a cozy cottage like this one. The English Home I'd be guaranteed to have sweet dreams in this gorgeous room. Quintessence The Mister has many talents. Hanging a group of prints evenly such as in this beautiful bath is not one of them. If anybody out there has a hubby with that talent, can we trade for a week? The Mister makes a mean steak tartare.
