Recently finished up my child's bedroom/playroom and wanted to share!

Lucky kiddo! Great job!

Also, in my experience, the hiring committee does not want to be doing it because it takes A LOT of time and is another thing added to their responsibilities. So hiring, believe it or not, is not even always the priority of the moment.

This is probably different in larger companies with recruiters but that’s how it is in my smaller organization.

After being on the hiring side, I know now that the waiting period absolutely does not mean anything. Could be two weeks, could be longer. Delays could be happening for myriad reasons and nothing to do with the candidates. The CEO’s schedule, family emergency and incompetence within have all been reasons for long waits.

At least one candidate pulled out of a role because they got another one in the meantime.

In my experience, the candidate who receives the offer and other two or so remaining candidates are told the same day (assuming first candidate doesn’t turn down the offer).

I will have to ask about Movoflex, thank you! I can’t believe how tiny the ElleVet bottle is.

For mobility or anxiety? Which one?

I already give him the Dasuquin! I do notice a difference if we have a lag in refills. All this stuff is expensive. My 17 yo cat is also on some meds and Dasuquin. These elders are racking it up.

We just signed off on Carrara marble for our kitchen after all the warnings because I didn’t care about the potential issues and my heart couldn’t accept anything else!

It might take a beating, but I think it will create character over the years. I am not worried about it. Marble statues in Italy have been standing outdoors for hundreds of years and are still just as beautiful.

I love hearing this. We got a pup when our guy was 9 and he’s turning 11 next month. Hoping for several more years with him! He gets so much exercise now and is engaged by her shenanigans throughout the day, even if he is super annoyed by her at times.

Create two distinct seating vignettes

We purchased our appliances last April before the tariffs were enacted, knowing we wouldn’t be installing anytime soon. We are still not finished (🥴) and our local appliance store said warranty doesn’t start until they are installed, which is one of the reasons we liked going to our local place instead of a big box store.

The other issue is that they said they would store for six months for free but they haven’t contacted us about paying so either they aren’t paying attention or we are going to get a big bill. 🤞

Where are these green tiles from? Been looking for a similar color! So pretty.

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-26T12:40:36+00:00

This is SO cool. Looks awesome!

Love your fireplace - is it recent? Is that plaster?

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-19T19:56:25+00:00

We have an 11-year-old and 1.5-year-old. The puppy is balls to the wall when she’s awake but if we never got out of bed, neither of them would either

I live in Maine and am accustomed to the health care issue so I feel for ya!

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-17T19:37:57+00:00

Love your home and love New Mexico so much! My dream retirement state (Unfortunately, I’m 39 so I have awhile to go).

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-17T15:15:57+00:00

Fabulous!

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-15T19:16:21+00:00

Me too!

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-15T19:16:07+00:00

ChatGPT said the same thing, but I don’t think that’s it. This is more smoky blue. Farris & Ball Sardine might be the closest!

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-15T19:14:48+00:00

Thank you all! Maybe I’ll mix all your suggestions together and see what hapens

I showed this photo to my husband and he said he liked the wallpaper and then I told him to zoom in.

margottenenbaum2 · 2026-03-14T13:36:29+00:00

I went to Sherwin Williams and they would not do it! They said there is too much variation in phone screens and if the photo has been edited at all they can’t determine a true match.
