Mary's room

eye that comes together in her concept of keep it bright and light for spring. “A good tip is to change the light bulbs from florescent to LED, and add some color with a lamp or lampshade,” says Thomas. “A white lampshade can transform your whole room interjecting airiness.” Refreshing for spring can be as cheap as rearranging the livingroom furniture making it feel like a whole, new space. Updating the pillows in lighter weight fabrics, like cotton and linen, with floral patterns or stripes,…

The room itself was grand and ancient, with walls of rough hewn stone, polished granite floors, and a ceiling as high as ten men. There were eight long tables, the shortest on a raised dais along the far wall, and seven more set orthogonal to the first and extending to the entry. Sheaves of wheat and sprays of spring blooms adorned the walls, and cornucopias spilled fruits, nuts and candies onto each table. There were dancers, at least a dozen of them, draped loosely in silks of gold and rich…

could hear her heart racing, wondering where her husband is. She knew that without her husband and his captain they wouldn’t win the case. Just then her husband runs into the court room breathing heavily. He gives her the video tape from the apartment that the girl was murdered in. Lucy shows the video to the court room explaining that Lucy knew she had a stalker and if she were going die, the camera would catch her…

around eight o clock we came off the plane, got our bags, and we got our rental car and went to the Nickelodeon hotel. When we arrived at the hotel and it looks breathtaking. I couldn’t wait to see everything that the hotel had to offer. We went in the room, and my mom and dad told me and my brother to go to the pool. We were having a lot of fun until the people that worked there started to play games. I was choosing to be a contestant. The game was to say,…

The Loving Lost of Kathy Kristine On March 31, 2011, there was this beautiful bricked mansion-like house. It was different from all the others because of what was inside. Inside was Kathy and Danelle, granddaughter of Kathy. Kathy was cooking breakfast for herself and Danelle: scrambled cheesy eggs, crispy bacon, buttermilk pancakes, and delicious sausage. While Kathy was cooking, Danelle prepared the orange julius. They had sat down to eat their delicious, smelling good food. While they…

choice—their, there, or they're. 1. Unable to tolerate the dust one moment longer, Elizabeth spent the afternoon cleaning the living room tables and shelves. Now __________ slippery with furniture polish, glowing in the sunlight that spills through the open window. 2. "Oh, no! _________ are lima beans on my plate!" screamed Noel before he fainted with a thud on the dining room floor. 3. Nothing makes Diane’s cat Big Toe Joe happier than a laundry basket full of fresh warm towels. _________ he…

It was exactly 1:37PM when a call from the main office came through over the PA System that I was to report to the office to be released to my mom’s companion, Barbara. After the call came and I gathered my paraphernalia, I cogitated what could cause me to have to be released from class and be picked up so soon. “Did I have to go to the dentist to finish my root canal? No, that was last weekend. My shots for 6th grade? That was done too! Whats going on!?” I interrogated myself in my mind. I…

this huge wall, we will see a door on the left side of that wall. That doorway leads to a room with two rows of seating and a huge space in the middle where prisoners would fight. This is similar to the Coliseum in Rome, Italy where people of the city, rich and poor, would gather to watch gladiators fight for their lives. Speaking of prisoners, there is a gate that separates the arena from a cold, damp room that prisoners are kept in the dungeon. The dungeon will contain five cells and every day…

never dreamed such a thing was possible. Not even Ruby had allowed him that. The most she’d ever allowed him was to wash her back at bath time, and that was it. This morning, however, was different. This morning, he’d elected to stay alone in his room and leave…

Josh looked around, observing every detail of the room he was in. Men in suits and suitcases filled every part of the room. Yep, it was official, he so did not belong there. His old torn, neon colored jacket stood out painfully in comparison to everyone else. He felt a hand on his shoulder, a hand he knew very well. The hand belonged to Michael, his brother-in-law for six years. “Don’t worry, just relax, they smell fear,” Michael whispered in his ear, before pulling away with a childish grin.…
