(From a month ago)<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">So I'm <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">terrible at this blogging thing... </span>which means I have a ton of room for improvement. Here are some shots I took <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;">about a month </span>ago <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">(before it snowed and killed my flowers). </span></span><br />

I got the coffee cup idea from an anthro display. I am thinking about painting the wall behind the crates with the coffee cups a dark blue bc a. i love color and b. it won't be so vanilla.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">i loved the other coke crate and just found a place I could use it. I've been looking for cute jars to put the spices in so they don't have to sit on their side, but I haven't found any I like. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Our bedroom is my haven. I am satisfied with the way it turned out but I am always looking to update and change things. Also, did you notice that our bedroom doesn't have an overhead light... welcome to the North. </span>Lindsey Boonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02250721312607365855noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3942766681244062835.post-61548160861839098642011-08-17T20:39:00.003-04:002011-08-21T15:46:24.499-04:00Why Blog?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />

I would like to try and inspire you to make time to be a kid, play, have an adventure, and create! I'm a novice photographer and really love it. The above pictures are some from Stephen (the hubby) and my trip to South America a couple of months ago. So I guess here's my first attempt to inspire :) </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am an Arkansas girl who fell in love with a Texas man and then somehow winded up in the North. This leaves my hubby and I with a ton of loved ones scattered across the US. Blogging is an easy fix. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">In college, at The University of Texas (hook 'em!) I took a psychology class that I really enjoyed. The teacher was a little nutty but very captivating. During the class, we had to take a test that gave us more insight into how our brain functioned personally. I can't remember what this test was called, and actually, the only thing I remember was that it told me I wasn't a reflective person.... I had never thought about that. Which makes sense, if I wasn't wired to reflect naturally. So, because of this I have to be conscious not to just float through life. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">So why blog? To reflect, create, and learn... and obviously keep up with people. or rather they keep up with me? </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Well to understand this you first must understand that I am not necessarily short. Towering at 5 feet 3.5 inches makes me a half an inch shorter than the average woman in the US (according to wikipedia... my trusted source on most random facts). I didn't name this blog because of <i>my</i> height but rather because of my family's height. The Boone's are a group of amazing and lovely people who average height is about 6 feet. So that makes me the shortest Boone. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also my maiden name is Short and I still love all the nicknames that came from it. "Shorty", "2short", "lil short" (because of older siblings), "L short". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But, no... if your wondering if I started a blog to 1. talk about myself and 2. talk about my and my family's height. I just used theshortboone as my url because all the other blog names I wanted were taken. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Now, on to why I'm starting a blog...</span>Lindsey Boonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02250721312607365855noreply@blogger.com0
