What I Wore Wednesday. Guys. NEW YELLAH PANTZ.

Before I get started, I need to express some gratitude, ya’ll. My car is one crazy cat. Haters be like, “It’s rusty! You should get a new car!” But, after today’s commute I just want to love on it a little. Because if it was a lady and I was a gentleman I’d totally sendContinueContinue reading “What I Wore Wednesday. Guys. NEW YELLAH PANTZ.”

Do you want to build a snowman???

Saturday morning found me outside scraping snow and ice off of our driveway for the THREE MILLIONTH time and, what can I say, I have mixed feelings about our recent “most snow evah!!11!” award. Because, on one hand, I’d rather we just left that record back in ’78 but, on the other hand, I’M GLADContinueContinue reading “Do you want to build a snowman???”

Got my throat blessed!

Here’s a brief rundown: Monday morning, iced-over car, lingering sniffles, few minutes late for work etc. etc. etc. Blech. And then I got to work and I realized what day it was, so I posted on Christine’s wall, “It’s your favorite feast day! The feast of St. Blaise!” Smile. This is one of those weirdContinueContinue reading “Got my throat blessed!”

Seven quick takes BECAUSE IT’S FRIDAY!!

— 1 — There’s never a convenient time to loss your voice, right? Especially a week of dance lessons, though! Yesterday was a dance lesson/ theology chat with some of the young’un’s at a local Univeristy. They look so good, right?? Fun fact: I’m, like, so old. I have this professional schedule that doesn’t usuallyContinueContinue reading “Seven quick takes BECAUSE IT’S FRIDAY!!”

This is Caleb and he’s a treasure to the world. Man’s man, family-man, man of the people, Renaissance man and more. Everyone loves him, even puppies. Plus, he has impeccable style. Real-life quote from my brother, Paul, after the Snowball, “Caleb told me he liked my shoes and that he was looking for a pairContinueContinue reading “What HE Wore Wednesday–guest post by the one and only Caleb!”

Snowball 2014 this past weekend

Every year for the past ten, my family has hosted a shindig known ’round these parts as the “Snowball” which is basically an excuse for dressing up and getting out and seeing friends while we all try to survive this frigid winter. It’s fun and good times and memories galore, and I should really takeContinueContinue reading “Snowball 2014 this past weekend”

Lesson learned: be careful what you promise!

Soooooo. I told Kathryn she could post in my blog and then she was like, “But you need to promise me I can post whatever I want” and BECAUSE I TRUSTED HER she wrote this. Enjoy. Dear readers of Danielle the Great and Powerful, I am not Danielle. My name is Kathryn. Need some background?ContinueContinue reading “Lesson learned: be careful what you promise!”

Love doesn’t make sense to me, either

Did you ever have a conversation that was probably insignificant to everyone else involved but it stuck with you over the next few days and weeks and months, gently permeating your thoughts and research? A while back someone brought up Ephesians 5 with me. Be my guest, guess which part? You probs guessed right. TheContinueContinue reading “Love doesn’t make sense to me, either”

Winter/projects/my mom

My camera has been accumulating photos of my mother. This is mostly because in the winter I’m driven more indoors due to snow/cold/ice/my inability to generate body heat and more time indoors = more time for projects! The list is in: My sister and I ordered Triathlon-friendly suits yesterday. After the mere second swimming classContinueContinue reading “Winter/projects/my mom”
