I woke up this morning and decided to take a few photos because it's just so beautiful out today. I wasn't expecting to see this little guy on my patio! I opened the screen to give him a handful of food and he just ran right in like the place... Continue reading

I decided these three things would be rather cute/funny sitting on one of the shelves in my living room. I collected Troll Dolls when I was a kid and sadly they were lost. Soooo I'm starting up a collection again and I found this one just the other day at... Continue reading

Thanks Ayla! Rock climbing is really something I want to try out. I'm excited about decorating too :) Thrift Stores/Antique Malls are definitely on my list of supply sources. I've never been to Ikea but I've always wanted to go! I'll have to check it out :)

A Little Scarce

I will most likely be a bit scarce for the next couple of months I imagine. I'll try not to fall off of my blog completely, but with Working/Making Xmas Gifts/Preparing to Move I'm going to be stressed to the max as it is. I'm also starting the Weight Watchers... Continue reading

I was inspired by Caitlin's very honest post over on her blog To Make Love Stay about how honest and true to herself that she is on her blog. She takes pride in the fact that she portrays herself exactly how she is in person and I love that. If... Continue reading

Jill thank you so much! This is really helpful-I love the timetable. Brooke-that anthropologie piece is so great! And yes it does appear to be a granny square pattern :)

Ayal-I PROMISE it's worth it. You won't be disappointed. I know exactly what you mean about the first few chapters. I almost got bored with it but I kept at it and I'm so glad I did. Hands down one of my all time favorite books now. Stela-read it soon!!! :)

I just started book 2 last night and I'm already past the first 100 pages...If I weren't at work right now I'd be wayyy further than that. My favorite part of the first book was Lizbeth's revenge...I was cheering almost to the point of tears. It was GREAT! I absolutely love her character so much. The first few chapters were difficult to get through but once things picked up...I loved every word of it. Book 2 is just as great so far. I'll have to let you know when I finish them all! I love having people to talk to about books and I don't personally know anyone who's read them!

I just finished reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo yesterday and Lizbeth Salander, the heroine of the novel, is my new HERO! The beginning was a little difficult to get inot, but once it started to pick up, boy did it REALLy get exciting! If you haven't gotten around... Continue reading

It's Official (almost!)

Over the past year and a half or two I've been saying that I'm moving to Fort Worth. It seems as though it just keeps getting pushed back and it just hasn't happened yet. I'm currently living with my sister Shelby and her husband David in a house that we're... Continue reading

Jenny of Chandelier Jenny did this on her blog and I couldn't help but do one here too! I occasionally stutter and stammer. Sometimes I do this when I'm nervous or if I'm talking fast. I have to stop and take a breath before I continue. I'm messy. My car... Continue reading
