Keep Calm And Rock On.

August 21, 2008 by jeanmartha

You know how everyone and their mother has been rocking the “Keep Calm And Carry On” poster for a year or more? Seemed to be the “it” home decor item that you couldn’t escape.

Well, I like it but I refuse to put it in my home because it’s…everywhere. That annoys me. What can I say?

BUT WAIT!!!

Adam at The Poster List email’d me his version.

Keep Calm And Rock On.

I think I need this for my office.

Rock on, indeed.

I have a few of his posters in my home office and I love them…

In other news…we watched 3 documentaries (1. education system, 2. bears, 3. The Cruise starring Timothy Levitch) and cleaned out the closet tonight. Hurrah!

Hey…look what I got from The Beach House:


Can I do my Sally Field academy award impression now? Squeal!

Assuming I should pass on the good will…and seeing as how Marilyn @ Simmer Till Done and The Beach House already have one…I’m going to pass on this fancy E to…

Shelter – Which always makes me smile.
Shore House Chic – A new favorite!
Lucky Pork – Cause holy carp is it damn funny!
The Country Doctor’s Wife – Who always makes me giggle.
April Showers – Who is Rechelle’s sister but I know she’d prefer to by MY sister. Hah! I’d even put up apples.
Beanpaste - which makes me snarf with laughter and I have to credit with making my pictures a wee bit better thanks to her tutorials.

I was going to list everyone on my blog roll cause I love all those blogs…but frankly…it’s 1:17AM and I need to get some frikken sleep. xoxo

    I must have just fell off the turnip truck because I never heard of that poster.

    I am loving that sewing machine though. Is it a Brother? I’ve got an industrial machine but I”m looking for something with decorative stitches.

    OK, rock on.

    Yep, it’s a brother. It’s a good little machine for simple sewing but for anyone who’s any good at sewing and doing elaborate items – they’d probably be annoyed by it. I got it from drugstore.com – they actually had the best price on this model. LOL

    Congrats, you deserve it!

    And thank you! How sweet, and to put me on the same list as Rechelle AND April totally makes my week!!!

    I love The Cruise. LOVE IT. He is so strange and wonderful.

    How cool are you!? I am gushing and honored that you like me. (or my blog at least. I’m OK once you get to know me.) Your blog’s fantastic and a daily read for me…I found you even before I had a blog in fact.

    Rock on, and thanks. :-)
    Laura

    (Oh…I just caught that “Verse, verse…” poster and I love it!)

    I loved that poster too but didn’t want to be last in line for that particular trend. The rock on variety is infinitely better.
    I kinda want the pink one in the bathroom.
