Last week, I shared my plan for our office/gameroom/guest room. I LOVED the comments on that post. They really helped me think through what I wanted to do with that room. The main thing I got from your comments? Embrace one purpose for the room. Decide on a purpose and go with that one purpose. Yes, it's a guest room, but only on rare … [Read more...]
It Could Happen to Anyone
Sometimes (okay, lots of times), I get a little over-dramatic when I find a mess somewhere that is extra sticky or extra embarrassing. I tend to say things like, "WHY oh WHY do these things happen to ME!?!?!!" I take messes personally. But I'm not taking this mess personally. A little over a week ago, I was unplugging my phone so I … [Read more...]
Perfect Birthday Gift for an 8-10 Year Old Boy
I wish I was the mom who opened a birthday invitation and immediately wrote the date, time and location on the calendar. Also in that ideal world . . . I would remember (while out running errands the week before) to pick up a gift. A unique one. An inspired one. An economical one. Once upon a time, I did have a pretty well-stocked gift … [Read more...]
A Day in the Life of a Slob Blogger
Simply Rebekah is hosting her annual "Day in the Life of . . . " link-up for 2012 today. I saw it last year, and it looked so fun! When she mentioned it in January, I asked her to remind me. Because remembering really isn't my thing. So here it is (my life last Thursday): (Warning: Seriously scary haven't-looked-in-a-mirror-yet-is … [Read more...]
My Menu Plan (LOTS and Lots of Chicken)
I didn't order any Zaycon chicken when it came to town recently because I thought I still had plenty. Then, as I was adding (many) bags of pre-cooked ground beef to my upright freezer, I started to panic when I realized I maybe should have ordered another forty pounds. I was down to only five meals worth of chicken!!! Panic . . . because … [Read more...]
Could vs. Should
Org Junkie is having a February Organizing Challenge. I really don't like challenges. I'd rather use the time I would spend planning a strategy . . . to just get something done. 100% less chance of failure that way. "I'm gonnas" have rarely worked for me. But . . . I do have a room that's been bugging me. I've mentioned it here … [Read more...]

Profundity Escapes Me
Profundity. Yes. That's a word. I just wrote it to see if spell-check would tell me it wasn't. I have a huge desire to wax profound on this evening that ends the day of my e-book's birth. But those few pretentious sentences are all I have in me. It's been a draining day, and I'm so thankful that my house is still feeling the benefits … [Read more...]
