I have shared quite a lot about this old country home we live in, and I realize that so much of it does not seem very inviting. At times, I don’t even feel invited. We’ve hit so many snags in trying to begin renovations that I’ve begun to wonder if we’ll ever get to start, […]
I already showed you how amazing Coach was during his Spring Break, and how he transformed our shop buildings right before my eyes. Well folks, that’s not all. He is unstoppable once he gets on a roll, and I may be showing off for weeks to come from that one week that Coach was off! […]
I know last Monday’s post was a cliff-hanger, but you’ll forgive me, right? I’m nervous because Pooh, my oldest daughter, was so angry last night after watching the first segment of Mockingjay, she was spitting nails! I don’t want anyone to be that angry at me, but I think I’m pretty safe. Besides, I’m here […]
I’m not completely new to this world, as I have migrated a WordPress.com site to this one. I’ve been writing that one since August of 2013, and it’s been so much fun for me. I decided (during recent ice events that kept me trapped in the house for two days…for the third time this winter…in […]

It’s 4:43 a.m. I’m awake, only because of my sinus drainage (thanks, musty old house) and acid reflux (thanks, Sun Drop and pizza) trying to meet in the middle. I feel tortured right now, being forced awake by something so disgusting, an hour and a half before I am required to be awake. Nothing makes […]
Tuesday, December 23: Today was a much better day, consisting of a full day at the salon until 3:30, and tons of candy making tonight. This post was written mostly yesterday, but our new high-speed internet isn’t always so high-speed, so getting a post together takes a while. It’s not bad, just a little slower than […]
Nine years ago, on Wednesday, April 13 2005, I gave birth to my second child. At that time, we were kind of homeless, although that seems like an extreme way of putting it. When you have family and friends like ours, you are never really homeless, but we were at the mercy of my Parents-in-law […]
