Janssen over at Everyday Reading (along with her sisters) instituted a Pinterest Challenge earlier this week, and I'm jumping on board. The idea is to pick 6 things from all of your many boards and pins, and actually DO them over the next 6 weeks. (and blog about it,...
Happy Weekend
Blogging kind of got away from me this week. I've been a bit frazzled and generally overwhelmed most of this week. So instead of a real post today, I leave you with this picture of my adorable dog and wish you a happy weekend: Here's hoping I'll be back to my A-game...
5 Things Friday
1. Lately I've been marathoning my way through the show Alias on Netflix, on the boy's recommendation. And overall, I quite like it. I'm currently in season 3. Season 1 was awesome and got me hooked, and season 2 was mostly more of the same goodness. But right at the...

2012 in Review
I thought it'd be fun to do a little review of things that have happened on this here blog over the past year and see what's what. I don't generally pay too much attention to my pageview stats, so some of the selections for the most popular posts were a bit...
5 Things Friday
1. So the evening of Christmas Day saw us take a trip to the emergency room because Ian was having severe pain in his ear and jaw - meds weren't helping and it was getting steadily worse. This is the guy who doesn't really like to go the doctor, so the fact...
Right Now
Right now, I am... feeling accomplished because I put together a succulent terrarium that is a Christmas gift for someone, and it looks fabulous. Now I just need to not somehow kill it for the next week. trying to be quiet because Ian is sleeping. He's working night...
