I Had To Change My Blog!

I am not getting anywhere with whatever I have done to my blog so I created a new onehttp://rosevinecottagetwo.blogspot.com/ I guess I will have to start over again since I can no longer access the "Layout"button on my original blog. I really don't know what happened but you can't do anything with it without using the layout button. I think from now on I will just keep it simple that is good enough for me, I hope that everyone finds me or I will really miss all my friends! I will be adding everyone back on my fav's as soon as I can. You will still be able to look at all my pictures and previous posts on this blog, I will just have to add new ones to my new blog.

I Have Lost Everything!

Can anyone tell me how to fix what I have done here? I was trying to add a pretty background and they said to set the blog on white minima, I did this by selecting a template. I must not of had a template originally and now it has deleted everything on my sidebar and I can not change the colors of my background, can anyone tell me how to get my original blog back again? Please. I have lost all of my favorite people , I feel so disconnected.

Welcome Fall !!

I know this is my second post today but I have started decorating outside for Fall and I thought I would share some pic of my front porch, if only I could have a little cooler air out here, but a big old glass of iced tea helps to cool ya off and inside I have my butterscotch cookie candle burning so everytime I walk inside it smells like the holidays to get me in the mood.I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Talk soon.


Suggestions Needed Please!

This is the view from my front door looking into my living room and dining room. I added this after I did the pictures below and I don't know how to put it below the other pic's.
I don't like to show pictures of my living room because it just never seems to come together right for me. So I move my huge t.v. cabinet from the wall it's on now to the opposite wall where my fireplace is all the time, these are the only 2 walls that I have in this room. I never like it. I have this massive wall of windows that always seem cold to me. So I need help, does anyone see something that I could do differently in this room, to cozy it up? Should I just get rid of it all and start over? HELP.

Jeff made my fireplace mantel for me and how do you like my fake fire in it, it is also a heater.


This is the dresser I have next to my fireplace, the picture I got at a yardsale for a $1.00, thought it was a good pic for Fall.



This is the shelf above my t.v.

I've been Tagged !

I am so honored to have been tagged by one of my favorite bloggers, none other than Jennifer at http://theoldpaintedcottage.blogspot.com/. Thanks for thinking about me Jennifer! I was looking through the list of beautiful blogs that she picked and almost fell off my chair when I saw my name, actually I had to read it twice!LOL.

If you have been tagged, here is what is requested:

1. Link your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

Okay so here we go:
1. I am having a hard time thinking of things about myself, I don't get much time to do this, I could probably tell more weird facts about all the men in my life, they seem to take up most of my time!

2. I was born and raised in Florida, but have always dreamed of living in a cottage in a small town where everyone knows your name.

3. When eating, I don't like my food to touch my lips and I hate my fingers to get dirty, so I have a hard time when eating ribs or corn on the cob, although I do manage to eat it.

4. I constantly change my house around, it drives my family crazy(although secretly I think they like it), I find my boys do the same thing in their bedrooms, that is if I don't beat them to it!

5. I married my highschool sweetheart and we will be celebrating our 21st wedding aniversary on Nov. 14th.

6. I have curly hair and have always wanted it to be straight.

7. Well since my computer is in my laundry room and my buzzer keeps ringing on my dryer it made me think of this~my towels have to be folded a certain way everytime and placed a certain way in my linen closet ALWAYS.
8. I thought of another thing to add, my first job was as a air traffic controller at a small airport in Central Florida.

I guess I'm either boring or an easy person to be with because this was really hard for me to do! Maybe with 1 husband, 3 boys, my Dad and 3 dogs, you don't have much time to think of yourself, you learn to adapt and go with the flow~either that or go nuts! LOL.

Okay my choice of some bloggers that I would love to know more about are:

Becky @http://laceandlures.blogspot.com/
Sue @http://howtokeephouse.blogspot.com/
Lisa @http://warmheartcozyhome.typepad.com/
Rachel@http://rachelashwellshabbychic.blogspot.com/
Kelly @http://serenitycottage.blogspot.com/

Ya'll Come On In!!

Hi everybody!! Well we are getting back to our normal routines here after luckily missing another hurricane. We have been very lucky here in S. FL. and my heart and prayers go out to the places that were not spared from these terrible storms but I can tell you I am breathing a sigh of relief!! This one scared me. Anyways I finally got a picture of my shelf that Jeff put up for me in my garage, this is where most people enter my house, unfortunately. The bench that I put here I had Jeff make for me a few years ago, from a bed, I sprayed it with a color by Rustoleum called Sweet Pea and then recovered the seat cushion. I'm not completely done,I still have some touch ups to do but I think it's looking better.
