What I Learned This Week

June 10, 2013

I spent most of the day in the bathroom. Don’t you just love a blog post that starts off like that? Before you gag, I suppose I should clarify that I spent most of the day in the bathroom cleaning. My stupid bladder has decided to go and show itself, and if you’ve never had a [...]

Primed. And Ready.

September 7, 2012

Well, the last time I checked in here my head was full of snot. My head is a lot better, but the runny nose just keeps hanging on. And now, on top of the runny nose and snot, I am high on paint fumes. We are smack-dab in the middle of a room remodel. Basically, [...]

A Little Sit-uation

November 2, 2010

If you’re a regular visitor ’round these parts, you know that I spent about four weeks of my life shopping for living room furniture. I shopped frantically and often. I went a little crazier crazy.

A Man And His Hoe

October 28, 2010

It was big and puffy and blue and came complete with 214 pillows. Before sitting on the furniture, it is necessary to move the pillows or else there isn’t a [...]

June 1, 2009

I am so excited to announce that I finally completed a project that I’ve been wanting to do since we moved into our house seven years ago. (I have no idea what is up with the spacing on WordPress today. It is enough to send my OCD soaring…. GRRRR.) I had so many ideas going into [...]

I Should Be Mopping

November 13, 2008

My mind is going in 113 directions. Which should not surprise you if you have spent any amount of time in my company. I’m stretched out in my big, blue, bloggy chair. Grey’s Anatomy is being played courtesy of my beloved TiVo. McDaddy is on the couch with his laptop and, I’m trying to talk myself [...]

The Finished Product

November 11, 2008

The following is a true story. Take a good look at that picture. What you are looking at is a picture of  ourbathroom countertop. We ordered a custom vanity several months ago, but, waited to purchase the new countertop until we could afford the one we really wanted. We finally ordered the countertop a month or so ago, and [...]
