I'm a daydream disaster.

George-o! You know if I could, I would quit my job and become your family's official photographer, right? I wish I could do that. Sorry for the typo - I'm typing and doing HTML on my little phone at the moment! I'll get it fixed! (And thank you! I hope you are doing well in Germany.)
Oh my goodness
Hi guys. I spent the weekend with this cutie in Chicago. I'm lucky, huh? He's a charmer. We sang a *lot* of songs, jumped in some puddles, read stories, gave lots of hugs. He and his mom, Elaine, are moving to Germany next month, meeting up with his dad, George. I get to see him and Elaine onc...
Oh, I love repetitive tasks like collating, especially when it's done infrequently and with good company. I'm looking forward to your report on the film festival; you always see such interesting films!
In preparation for...
{All became clear by moonlight.} In quiet anticipation, pottering slowly along, this has been the order of my morning. Much action is around the corner, I feel it and know it. I am sitting here, with Omar by the heater, and whilst he sleeps, I am tying up loose ends, finishing small tasks, wh...
Hello lovely Miss Gracia! I hope you are well! So nice to hear from you!
Hi there
Did you all have a good holiday weekend? I hit the basics of my favorite holiday - fireworks, parade, cookouts, heat. Maybe I'll share a couple of polaroids I took, if I ever get through my scanning backlog. I am finally catching up with some of my scanning from my sister's wedding and I'll sh...
It's been so nice knowing you too! Here's to many more years!
Six years in!
I thought I was going to squeak in a post for my blog's birthday, but here I am, checking my facts to find that I'm a day late already. My first entry was posted on June 13, 2005. It was actually a post I had written up three days previously, but hadn't had the courage yet to create a blog. It w...
Hey Amanda! Yes, it's my twin brother - he's my only brother. He does video art. The theme for this show was "ritual" and he collaborated with a bunch of other artists for the pieces. It was cool.
Hi
Quick hello. A couple of photos from my last couple of hours in San Francisco in early May. I went to Chicago this weekend to see my brother's art show and have lots of time with family and friends (and friends who are family). I need to finish the roll of film I started.
Hello! Thank you!
Happy weekend!
I hope you all have a lovely holiday weekend. It looks like we're going to get a break from the monsoon season we've been having - it's supposed to be hot and sunny! I miss being a kid and loving the first day of pool season. This weekend I am looking forward to some barbeques with friends, th...
Thank you!
Evening purple
My mother bought these Siberian iris plants and planted them this month, thinking they were not going to bloom in their first year. Luckily for us, she was wrong! They bloomed and are gorgeous.
Thank you ladies!
I love pink
Our neighbor's magnolia tree is blooming. I live for these days. I love its pink blooms.
Hi Jennifer! It is nice to see growth, isn't it? There are buds out everywhere now! Frank says hello!
Saturday yellow
Yesterday I took Frank to the vet. If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen my tweets about it. I couldn't find our cat carrier and managed to lash together two laundry baskets to use as a very poor substitute. It was humiliating for the both of us. I need to buy a new carrier, because I t...
Thanks lady! Miss you!

Thank you Miss Elaine!
March snow
I know, it's kind of cruel to post snowy photos, especially on a day we got some snow, but I rescued a forgotten roll from December and had to share these two shots from a winter walk. I also have decided this week to do a little blog project next month. There are 30 days in April, and I hap...
Thanks Blue Girl! I'm hoping this keeps me on the blogging track!
30 posts in 30 days
Hi there lovely blog readers. I mentioned in my last post that I am turning 30 this month. To get things started, I have decided that I am going to blog every day in the month of April (30 posts in 30 days). I thought I'd start off with this photo I snapped this past Sunday, which coincidental...
Hi Kristen! Thanks for the comments! This particular hike made me think of a hike we went on the last time I visited Bloomington, which was, really, much too long ago.
A Sunday hike
Last Sunday I went on a little hike through the woods with some friends. Today, I more or less squandered the day, so I'll pretend I did this lovely hike again.
I know you are not a beer drinker, but I love New Glarus beer. That is neither here nor there, but I just thought I'd say that. Also, welcome to the blogosphere! :)
Keep in mind for the future, New Glarus
On my way home this weekend from Yellowstone Lake, I decided to drive by New Glarus State Park, SW of Madison, WI. I was pleasantly surprised. The walk in sites were off a small paved path surrounded by woods. Looks like they are all reservable so I would probably pick #29, #25, #22, or #19. ...
The house looks fantastic! The built-ins! The firepit! Nicely done! I can't wait to see how you update it.
We get the keys to our house today!!!
Yes, I am the worst blogger ever, but for those of you that still stop by thank you so much! And hopefully, I will have a lot more of my life to share on the blog as the adventure of owning our first house begins. Please see now what will be considered the before pictures. Please look over the p...

Oh Ashley! I love the graphic print!
A slew of new prints
Well, first up, All My Little Friends is in the shop now! They are LARGE and look fantastic printed! Another more graphic print in the shop is "Progress". The print measures 13 × 19. Lastly, with Valentine's Day impending I know we want to say "I love you" to those nearest and dearest to...
Hey! Fantastic! Look at you! Congrats!
Marrakech dateline: blog media coverage and books by bloggers
Oh my....the girl that blogs from a Marrakech olive grove was in Women's Health Magazine. No, silly, not on the cover (although it would be very lovely to look like her) but inside... Giving blog tips when instead she should be trying Women's Health techniques for Flat Abs Made Easy. Oh d...
