Look! I'm back for inspirational Monday!!! Hopefully, I will do a better job of posting every Monday than I have of late.
This week's inspiration reflects the current weather here, which is HOT. It is about 90 degrees right now, and I'm still getting used to the abrupt change.

Inspirational Monday....April 25, 2011
Well, Hello! How ya been? Long time, no see, and all that. What up, home dawg? Ha, ha!
Hey, sorry for the over-long absence. Don't worry, I have already punished myself. Grounded for three days and no desserts. LOL I do apologize. The last two Mondays have been just ridicules, but those days are over now, and I can get back to my inspirational Mondays!!! Yayayayayay!
For the past couple weeks, I have been painfully obsessed with vintage-style summer dresses. I will quite literally sit here in front of my best friend, Mr. Computer{say hi to the kids, computer: "Hi, kids!"}internet-shopping and pining for those lovely dresses! **SIGH** {Author goes slightly limp as she stares off into the distance........."Erin, ERIN!!!!"} AH! What?! Oh, did I zone out? Sorry. Hee, hee, enough with my pathetic obsessions. Let's look at some pictures, shall we? Good.
Beautiful, right? Oh, I better stop now before I start drooling!
See ya!

Inspirational Monday....April 4, 2011
Yay!! I didn't forget to do an inspirational post on inspirational Monday! Again, I'm sorry I forgot last week.
I've been thinking a lot about Broadway musicals lately, getting "wicked" songs stuck in my head, and to top it off, a couple weeks ago, PBS broadcasted the Les Miz concert, and I've had "one day more" running through my head ever since, which is annoying, since I don't know any of the words. Not that that's a bad thing, I do so love to sing Broadway songs at the top of my lungs as I do my chores around the house, especially when I vacuum, that way no one else can hear me belting out "Dear officer Krumpkee", thank goodness!

This week's Inspirational Monday is all about Spring, and the many fun things it offers, such as.........
Can y'all tell that I am shamelessly pining for warmer weather? Because I am. I want to wear pretty spring dresses. I want to go outside barefoot. I want to go for long walks in the park, and ride my bike around the neighborhood. I WANT SPRING!!!!!!!!!

Inspiration Monday....January 31 2011
GUESS WHAT! It's Inspiration Monday!!!! Aren't you excited?! Yeah, I didn't think so......
Let's get started! My inspiration for this week is:
What is it about Vintage luggage that is so photogenic?! I mean it's just luggage, but I just love to look at it :)
This picture makes me think of Romeo and Juliet. Crazy, right?! It's a piano with a flower on it! But it's just so pretty and romantic, and I think that piano music is the prettiest thing one can put on paper. It's just so elegant, no?
Paris and the color red just seem to go together.
Looking at this picture makes me feel like Charlie walking in to Willy Wonka's factory for the first time! LOL
Red hair. Something I've always wanted. Those out there with red hair, you lucky bunch, treasure what you've got, because there are VERY few girls with all manor of other hair colors who would LOVE to have what you probably hate. I am one of those girls.
Taylor Swift. I love her hair, I love her cute little dresses, and I love her songs. They tell such great stories, and I love songs that tell stories. I also think she's SUPER pretty
Doesn't this just make you want to go out, purchase a vintage-looking suit case, put on your favorite dress and have a photo shoot on some random flight of stairs?
I know I said this last Monday, but I LOVE built-in bookshelves. Someday, when I'm rich and living in some sprawling mansion in Sunny California, my house shall be riddled with shelves such as these{complete with those sweet rolling ladders! I've always wanted to ride on one!}

Inspiration monay
Last week, I did a post on pictures that I found inspiring, and I loved doing it. The search for the perfect pictures was a great part of what made them inspirational. I had so much fun browsing for great shots that I think I'd like to make a habit of it. I think I'm going to start an inspiration Monday!!
Here's how it works. Every Monday, I'll post pictures I have discovered during the week, and say something about each one{why it inspires me, what I like best about the picture, etc.}
You can get in on the action too, if you want! Each Monday, after reading my inspiration post, you can create a post of your own, and then send me the link. We could make an event out of it!
Typing this post on inspirational photos has me inspired to do one right now! I know it's not Monday, but I think I'll just have to do one anyway, you know, to get the ball rolling, and what not.
I am reminded of the design I used when renovating my bedroom when I look at the picture. I had the same color scheme, perywinkle ad white. But I think I might be able to pull something else from this photo and use it in my room.{I love interior design photos!}
If my house had a room that looked like this, I would be a happy person. I am certain to fall instantly and madly in love with a house that has built-in book shelves. And the color scheme of cream and rose pink is so romantic!
Don't ask me why, but I am always attracted to pictures that are dark, or at least very dull colors, with a pop of some bright vibrant color, such as red or yellow. I also really like her dress :){This really reminds me of Alice in Wonderland}
I think vintage and/or antique clutter is the best kind of clutter there is! throw in a drop-dead gorgeous dress, and you have inspiration!
I love the toned down colors and sort of washed out look of this one. I also enjoy looking at the sketchy quality of the buildings in the background. This makes me think of some sort of interior design wall decoration one might see in a chic bedroom, possibly with a travel theme, complete with vintage suitcases piled everywhere{Not to mention antique clutter! Gotta love that clutter!}
