Way back in middle school I knew a dude named “Gabe,” and he signed up for the Crafting Challenge! (For May. I did complete this in May, by the way…just didn’t post until now). Now, I don’t really see Gabe around all that often…but I did run into him at the family’s Snowball in JanuaryContinueContinue reading “May Crafting Challenge!”

What song would you sing at the Visitation?
This week. Hit a few bumps on the let’s-take-twenty-people-to-Spain road. Over-committed to too many things (and therefore frustrated myself because I couldn’t accomplish all of them and emerge a functioning human being). Didn’t learn my lesson, though, and continued to say “yes”! This is me. So I go to confession all, “Hi. I’m really goodContinueContinue reading “What song would you sing at the Visitation?”
What I Wore Wednesday Girrrrrrrrl
I take selfies, K? And in this one my head is cut off…which is kind of a shame because I just got a really cute haircut. Like Peter Pan. Anyway! I LOVE these shoes. They’re pretty new, but like walking on a cloud and therefore I predict I will live in them. They were onContinueContinue reading “What I Wore Wednesday Girrrrrrrrl”
What Memorial Day Weekend looked like, according to my camera
I left work on Friday in high spirits, I guess, as I took this picture of traffic on my way home. Please note, that blue sky is deceiving. Friday was a night slated for a garden party with girlfriends and crafts and lemonade. Alas, it was too chilly, so I had to move indoors andContinueContinue reading “What Memorial Day Weekend looked like, according to my camera”
My Office
I’ve recently relocated in my office building…therefore: new views! Out the window: On the whiteboard (I thought they were joking when they said the whiteboard was my responsibility. They weren’t joking): But–now it's a three-day weekend. So: do awesome things and remember awesome people.
When things don’t go according to plan
Yesterday was Wednesday. Big things that have happened this week: the Oklahoma tragic tornado, the passing of a friend’s family members. And yesterday was Wednesday…when I normally write about clothing. I was going to be so productive. I was going to accomplish things and write posts and go to the funeral parlor and clean theContinueContinue reading “When things don’t go according to plan”
Current status: aware of my mosquito bites
So I spent time with this gorgeous face on Sunday. Together we hiked a mini-Camino. We were banished from the real group (more on that later, alligator). See the lilac picture? It represents a larger theme, you see. Today, in my office I mainly focus on those lilacs…and the shining water. And they were beautiful!ContinueContinue reading “Current status: aware of my mosquito bites”
What I Wore Wednesday
My brother, Paul, unexpectedly mentioned that he wanted to be featured in a “What I Wore Wednesday.” I told him he would be featured THIS WEEK and I figured we were good. That morning I texted him from work, reminding him of this. But then he texted me back saying he no longer wanted to.ContinueContinue reading “What I Wore Wednesday”
May is magical. Really.
I got off of work yesterday and I was tired. I wanted to go home and nap. But then I got home and a friend, Matt, was over. So instead I danced in the living room and ate a scrambled egg and, since he is coming on the Camino with me…we decided to “practice walk”ContinueContinue reading “May is magical. Really.”
People who have visited my house in one week: a sociological experiment
Sometimes we joke that our house could be the feature of a television show–all types of characters coming and going, eating our food (even when we’re not home), hanging out and being ridiculous. It occurred to me that I would, for one week, take a photograph of everyone who cycled through the house. I startedContinueContinue reading “People who have visited my house in one week: a sociological experiment”
