I was just over at Ree’s photography blog, where she was posting photos sent in under the theme “Coming Home.”There is post after post after post. I dare you to not be moved by those images. Dare you. Given the holiday weekend and the incredibly emotional response the photos garnered from yours truly, I thought […]
The One with the Tennis Volleys
Tennis. Oh, tennis. The sport that always looked so appealing. That I would love to play. But the same sport at which I could never seem to be even remotely adept. I’m not exaggerating, here, people, I stttttunk. The only redeeming aspect about the whole tennis aspirations thing is that my husband was just about […]
The One where She Works Solo
I did it!I did it all by myself!I worked solo in the Welcome Center office from 2-8pm.I was a teensy tiny bit apprehensiveonly because I’m certain there are at least a handful of tasks I’m not skilled in at the moment.But with the votes of confidence by my boss and my coworkers and my husband, […]
The One where She’s “Home”
I’m home. Well, home away from home. As soon as I pulled onto the grounds at SBC, it just felt right. Throughout the four years of college, this camp was the one place that stayed the same. No matter how many dorms I lived in, or how many camps I visited, or how many times […]
The One Where We’re Officially Cat Parents
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! This just in! Butterscotch is officially ours. Since the beginning of February we’ve been cat-sitting. And I was dreading the day we’d have to say goodbye. But the owner seemed to have move on from the cat she owned for 13 years. She asked if we wanted to keep […]

She could tell I was leaning toward the more “natural” way of life, and thought I might be interested in an all natural facial cleanser. After check out the link for The Oil […]
The One with the Anniversary Amusement
Yes, our anniversary was a lovely day spent together. We went out for the best ice cream in town. We sat in the park and talked while enjoying the creamy goodness. We took a stroll. We went out to Johnny Rockets for dinner. We came home and read side by side. And finished the night […]
The One with our Second Year
Last night was the series finale of the best television show ever made.* *In my educated opinion, of course. If you know TV and you know me, then you know I’m referring to LOST. Unfortunately I can’t say a whole lot about the 2 and 1/2 hour episode. Because it started at 9pm. And I was […]
The One with the Rainy Day Sales
Another day of rain. I thought April showers were supposed to bring May flowers. But I don’t remember April having much rain at all. And I’m pretty sure rain has dictated the forecast for this pre-summer month. At least the temps are almost where they should be. I’m finally realizing SUMMER is just around the corner. I […]
The One with the Big Five-O
Yesterday I was delighted to discover I had reached the “fifty followers” mark. I should probably give Number Fifty a prize don’t you think? Well. Get this. It was my HUSBAND. I know, right? Two things come to mind. 1. How did he wait this long to become a blog follower? and 2. How in the […]
