Minor Decorating

I've had this wallpaper hanging around since November. Today I decide to give my dresser a bit of a makeover. I can't really do anything too crazy to it as it does not belong to me (thanks military lending closet!)


Yes, there's a rather grumpy young man in that one. He doesn't particularly enjoy having his photograph taken sometimes, especially when I'm not letting him play in the cupboard.


And a close up so you can see the gorgeous wallpaper pattern. i love it so much. It's Laura Ashley by the way.


Mikey and I also baked some brownies this morning. Yum! And I probably scared the crap out of the neighbours below us when I dropped one of the shelves when doing the dresser. Whoooooops.

I am a 24 year old British stay at home mother to a two year old boy. Married to a U.S. soldier and currently living in Germany.

I have seen the Vatican from the very top of St Peter's Basilica, the mud in the World War I trenches outside Ypres. I have walked through Montmartre side streets bustling with people in the evening, gotten lost in the streets of Greenwich Village NYC, run through cornfields on the Welsh border and sat outside with a cup of tea watching fireflies in the fields of the outer Chicago suburbs.

I have held the hands of others through addiction, fear, suicide, despair and come out the other side. I have left everything behind to begin anew.
I have fought mental illness and walked through snow in the mountains of the lake district, England. I have explored the morgue in the bowels of an abandoned hospital on a summer evening, climbed to the top of scaffolding on the outside of a five floor warehouse to look at the city lights of Nottingham at night and I have watched the sun setting on the Texas horizon.

I have held my son's tiny hand through the plastic window on an isolette in the NICU ward. Walked, speaking only in whispers, through the catacombs beneath the ground on the outskirts of Rome and seen the fireworks over Heidelberg castle.
