March’s Favorite Things

Happy Monday, friends, and Happy April!  I hope you all had a blessed Easter weekend filled with family and friends.  I love the spiritual renewal that Easter brings each year -- and it always seems to be not a moment too soon.  If you missed my Saturday post, I invite you to read it and hope that it blesses you... Now on to my favorite things from March... 1.  Our St. Thomas getaway... I'll let this pic speak for itself. And this … [Read more...]

February’s Favorite Things

Well, you know what they say... better late than never!  But we're only a week into March, so I figure this isn't too bad, right? February was pretty busy, but in a really great way.  And now we're rocking and rolling into the spring schedule, but not before the hubs and I take in a week of R & R.  Yay for R & R! But without further ado, here are a few of my favorites from February... 1.  My No Spend Month. Seriously, y'all?  … [Read more...]

January’s Favorite Things

I can't believe we're already at the end of January!  I survived all those parent conferences, but did not accomplish everything I'd hoped to do on the home front.  Oh well -- there's always February, right? ;-) So here are my favorite things for January... I think it's a pretty good list. :) 1.  Atlanta Bloggers get-togethers. I was sooooo lucky this month!  Our Atlanta bloggers met up for lunch and a business meeting in Woodstock, GA … [Read more...]

November’s Favorite Things (and some news)

Happy December, friends!  Let the countdown to Christmas begin!  I'm knee deep in Christmas decorating and enjoying it this weekend, but we must close out November properly.  Some fun favorite things this month... 1.  My new booth space at Queen of Hearts Marietta... I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying this new space -- the staff is marvelous, the other consignors are fun and energetic and the store itself is gorgeous.  It's only a … [Read more...]

October’s Favorite Things

Can you believe it's November?  Do you feel that clock ticking toward Christmas like I do??  Wow! This October was a jam-packed, fun-filled, stress-inducing month.  Wonder what November will be like???  I'm scared.  Hold me. Just kidding!  But seriously, we were out of town quite a bit, running our legs off while in town, and hanging by a thread about the opening of the new antique mall where my booth will be.  Oh, and out of town company … [Read more...]

September’s Favorite Things

Another busy weekend behind us and another busy week before us!  And here we are in October! Wow, as reluctant as I was to embrace September, I have to admit that it's a pretty wonderful month.  And it's been a little rocky, too, so I was so happy to pull together this post of the wonderful things I enjoyed.  Always good to camp out on the positive, no? So without further ado... my favorite things from September! 1.  3 of my favorite … [Read more...]

August’s Favorite Things

Yowza, it's so hard to believe we are rocking into SEPTEMBER!  A whole new crop of Little Ones to acclimate, new routines for my high schoolers, new football season, new goals for a successful school year.  But with all of that comes a whole lotta time constraints.  So if my visiting and commenting on blogs drops off a bit and I may have to post a little less, just know that I'm still here... still writing, DIY'ing as best I can, and reading as … [Read more...]

July’s Favorite Things

I have no idea where the summer has gone.  But I'm pretty clear on where I have gone!  Hmm... Lake Blue Ridge GA (twice), Lake Rabun GA, Eufaula AL, Destin FL, Huntsville AL, and Albany GA.  Lotsa travel, people.  The hubs likes to pick up and go. :)  We've had a busy summer and it's already winding down... soon I'll be brushing up on my curriculum and brainstorming bulletin boards for my classroom.  Yikes!  This week it's all about the boys... … [Read more...]

June’s Favorite Things

Gosh I thought May was crazy, but June has been a little nutty, too!  I secretly enjoy the revolving door days of summer with all the kids home and their friends in tow.  And then there's the sky high grocery bills and endless dishes and laundry.  But I'm willing to overlook those things to enjoy our summer time together. :) I've got some exciting things planned around my house in July, so stay tuned for those, but in the meantime, here are my … [Read more...]

May’s Favorite Things

I seriously did not think I would make it through May.  I fully intended to roll through the month with a few outdoor projects I could share here and at The Great Outdoors linky party and with my sanity intact. But here I sit, brain-dead, in a very dirty, messy house, recovering from a brutal chest cold that kicked my hiney the last week of school, with nothing to show but a few of my favorites and a To Do List for June.  Sorry, folks!  Life … [Read more...]
