Well, here we are! The last day of August... how did that happen?? This was a summer of sporadic posting, some story-telling, and a few technical issues here on the blog that I'm still trying to figure out. May be time to call in a professional! #ugh Today I'm going to recap my posts from July and August... just in case you missed something! I shared my favorite Fourth of July projects and recipes from years past, along with this … [Read more...]

Whew, what a week! Somehow this last week of July has ended up being the busiest I've had all summer. I'm ready for the weekend and the hubs and I will be taking in Earth Wind and Fire with my inlaws -- how fun is that? And since today's Friday, let's do a Five on Friday -- that hodge podge of a post where I share random things! 1. A Paris Apartment. I shared that I was reading this a few weeks ago, so thought I'd recap my … [Read more...]

Happy Friday, y'all! The hubs and I are headed to Pensacola for the Blue Angels this weekend and I can't wait. I've been itching to get to the coast and this particular weekend is always a great time. I had a busy week this week -- busy in a good way with projects and planning projects and just kinda catching up around the house. Nice, right? And it's time for 5 fun and random things... 1. Summer sales. Y'all. Those 4th of July sales … [Read more...]

Greetings, dear friends!! I didn't intend to be gone so long, but I'm happy to be back. I have a story to tell about my time away, but I'll save that for another day. Right now my summer is in full swing and I've been relishing the down time after a crazy few months. Right now I've got Wimbeldon on the TV and lots of sleeping young people in the house... life is good. I thought I'd share what I'm reading, loving and working on today... … [Read more...]

What a crazy week! Three snow days (with REAL snow) and a quick trip to Albany for the funeral of an extended family member... lots of good busy stuff going on, too. So it seemed a great idea to share five random things with you today... 1. There's nothing quite as peaceful as a snowy evening. We made it back in town just as the snow was beginning to accumulate and conditions were deteriorating... so it was lovely to light the fire, cook … [Read more...]
Five on Friday (and my Winter Mantel)
January 16, 2015 by · 3 Comments
Friday, y'all... and I am so thankful. This was another week of meetings and prayer as my precious school is being put through the ringer. I can't go into all the details yet, but let me just say: Satan is alive and well. I have never experienced spiritual warfare before, but I'm enduring it now. So if my posts are a bit scarce for a while it is because I am drained. BUT, I am optimistic and continue praying and seeking joy in my … [Read more...]

Well, shoot, if you blinked you missed September! Or so it seemed... I had a really busy month, but was a little light on posts around here. I hope you don't mind; I have a couple more crazy weeks and then a bit of a lull for a few weeks, so I'm planning to get some major projects around my house wrapped up. Woo hoo! But here's what I DID share during September, just in case you missed it... My Director's Office makeover Feed a Crowd Taco … [Read more...]
DIY Wood Pallet Projects {Inspiration Galore!}

OCTOBER!! I can't even ... what the heck happened to September?! Oh my... We're still having 80+ degree days here, but the mornings are cooler and the humidity not quite so high, so I know fall is creeping in. I'm ready! I've got a list of projects I want to do a mile long and not enough hours in the day, but it's fun to gather inspiration for when I DO have time to immerse in a good DIY. I'm so fortunate to know so many talented DIY … [Read more...]
What I’m Reading, Loving, and Working On…

Hi, everyone! I was a traveling fool last week and have totally paid the price this week, both at home and at work. Isn't that the rub? Add in another bout of insomnia and it's not been a productive week. I would love to slow everything down but... during the fall? Not happening! Anyway, I had two wonderful trips, spent time with my boy and friends AND my BFF and had some very happy experiences along the way. I can't even tell you how … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {August}
September 8, 2014 by · 1 Comment
Well, the weekend flew by, didn't it?! I enjoyed some furniture painting and a little bit of crafting, but mostly got a few things ticked off my to-do list. And added some more to it! I realize it's already 8 days into September, but I thought I'd go ahead and recap August here before I got too much further behind. :) It seemed August was a month of updates, like my back deck... and my guest room. I also shared a couple of … [Read more...]
