I found that yesterday and it cracked me up!  It’s so how we operate!  Maybe not to that extreme, but we definitely count on reviews for our purchases. It made me wonder about how other folks buy items based on ratings.  Mine goes something like this… No rating – If I really really like it or [...]

Hey there!  This week has been a tough one for me; Damon is flying home (yet again!) today.  He’s been gone waaay too much lately, and I miss him.  After posting about how gratefully overwhelmed I’ve been, I started to feel the not so lovely-dovey, stressed out kind of overwhelmed.  It’s been weeks of not [...]

Lately I’ve been feeling very overwhelmed (in a very good way) by all that I have been given.  This has been a favorite song of mine for a few years, and I wanted to share it with you today.  :)

Yesterday we had severe thunderstorm warnings around these parts.  I don’t like them!  Especially when Damon is travelling, and he is.  Well, was.  (He’s flying home today, Mom!)  She’s forbidden me to post anywhere about when Damon is gone.  And for some reason, he’s gone a lot when we have storms.  Hm.  Anyway..  I have [...]

I’m sitting here staring out the window at the gloomy sky.  {sigh.}  I have so much painting to do, but really don’t like painting when its humid.  And it. is. humid today!  It makes me nervous.  I’m sure it can be done, but the can says not to, and I’m all for following the directions [...]

Good Morning!  For the first time in a long time, I woke up (before my alarm!) feeling completely rested and ready for the day.   It’s such a good feeling.  :)  But once the day got started, I felt myself begin to worry.  Lots of things going on, and if there is one thing I [...]

Today is windy and chilly and perfect for getting these cabinets painted. FINALLY!!! In case you don’t remember, this whole project started at the beginning of February.  We’re coming up on the end of April and I think I’ve officially pushed my husband passed the point of crazy.  He’s been so patient.  Or as he [...]

· · · — — — · · · I’m stuck, guys.  Completely stalled.  I just can’t figure her room out.  And every day for the past week or so, I’ve gone in there… sat down, pondered, moved some things around, and walked out as stuck as when I walked in.  It’s just not coming together the way I want it to.  I’m [...]

Happy Monday!  I don’t know about you, but the weather here today is gooooorgeous!  I wish I could share it with everyone! (I wrote that yesterday but didn’t manage to get this post published.  Oh well.) Here is another teeny tiny sneak peak at Alycia’s room.  I’m still plugging away at a bunch of little [...]

I’ve had a can of magnetic primer sitting around for a few months.  I’ve had so many things I’ve wanted to use it on..  but kinda knew I was saving it for Miss Alycia.  She’s at that age where she wants things on her walls, and the flexibility to swap them out on a whim. [...]
