Last night I was watering the flowers and plants outside when I saw something strange moving on the daisy.....it was a HUGE praying mantis. You can even see the water droplets I got on him; sorry Mr Mantis. There's something strange and amazing about a praying mantis. It's almost like... Continue reading

I belong to the Anytime Fitness gym in my town which is open 24/7. I try to get there and workout at least 5 times a week. I do 30 minutes of cardio and then weights. It's tough some mornings since I do it before work, but I always feel better once I'm there and it's a great stress reliever! Love your blog Meg!

I haven't talked much about the Etsy showcase...because it seemed to bomb. It isn't what we expected. We thought we'd sell a few things as a result; nada. We're working on some new items for the Etsy shop; watch for them. We went from early spring to summer overnight; serious.... Continue reading

To the best mom in the whole world. You were strict with me when I was growing up and you wouldn't always let me do what I wanted. You made me eat my vegetables. You made me do my homework and do my best in school. You made me clean... Continue reading
