Allow me to complain for a bit. So I’ve been thinking this post in my head for a while, and then something happened. A blog I follow, Young House Love, revealed that they’d bought a new house. Ever since they moved into their current one about 3 years ago, I’ve been following along, jealous at all the things they are doing to it to make it their own and awesome and wonderful. Jealous because Sherri doesn’t have to bug John about changing the wall color again, because changing the wall color is LITERALLY their job and what they get paid [...]
family
This is why we can’t have nice things.
So a few weeks ago (pre-termite discovery), I was doing one of those extra-thorough house cleaning jobs you do every few times, and that included wiping down our new leather chair, bought just a few months ago.

Poor thing’s got cousins all over the place! I was traveling to NC on Friday night when the storm hit. We had no major damage at our house (and didn’t even lose power). But we [...]
My Best Friend’s Baby Shower
In February, I (along with another friend who was in charge of the foodstuffs) got to throw my BFF a baby shower. Now, I have a few BFFs. But Jessica is my like for realz BFF. Evidence: See? Told ya. Anyway, Jessica actually HAD her beautiful baby girl…a month ago today, I think, actually. But I waited to post baby shower pics because one of the things I did was buy some fabric to use as tablecloths, so I could make something for her with it after the shower. I still have plenty left and plan on making some more [...]
