Happy Holidays!
Miss me yesterday? I try to post once per day, Monday through Friday…but Harper needed a couple immunizations yesterday so I was out and about and didn’t have a chance to write. If you’re my Facebook friend, you’ve probably already seen this photo, but I just can’t help myself sometimes! My webcam caught this photo of my silly family using Photobooth, but the...
Read MoreMac Lover
I love my little white MacBook. It’s 3 years old now, which is probably ancient in computer years, but I’m hoping that I can squeeze a few more years out of it. I’m a self-taught PC convert, and I love all of the little details that Macs offer, and make my life a lot easier! You can see my “Dock” below, and some of the most frequently used programs that I...
Read MoreDo You Picnik?
I am all about short-cuts and simple tools for real people. And with all of the options out there, you can find some really easy products that don’t have to cost an arm and a leg. I have used Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, AutoCAD, etc. but as a small business owner living in a small town, buying the expensive professional version for my own use isn’t always an option. Plus I...
Read MoreBusy on the Bathroom!
Blogging or bathroom? That is the question. Hehe! We’ve spent a lot of time recently working on the bathroom plan, and it is coming into motion! My handy-dandy husband ripped out the old shower surround and then put a new bright and shiny one up! He also put up new trim and sealed everything! I painted the walls (while I was home alone with our 9 month old – go me!), and...
Read MoreHouse Tour {Before Pictures}
We bought our first house this past July! So exciting!! It is something that we have wanted to do for years, but we decided to wait until I was done with school and we were settled. We found this house and could immediately see its potential, but I guess nobody else could – it sat on the market (and empty – yuck!) for almost 2 years. And we got a heck-of-a-deal on it! There is...
Read More{Color Therapy} Navy and gold
I know these are supposed to be on Thursdays, but I’m practicing patience with my posts! I am trying to put a lot more time into them so that you will actually enjoy what I have to say, and will want to come back! So here is some color therapy for your weekend! This week’s “Color Therapy” is inspired by the portfolio of one of my Twitter contacts, Tobi Fairley. I am...
Read More{Friday Flickr Inspiration}
Here is a little wintery, but spring-is-right-around-the-corner inspiration for your Friday! I hope your weekend weather isn’t keeping you inside (the same goes for me!). I’ll be attending my niece’s play, taking our dogs on a walk and possibly refinishing our pistachio green bathtub to a nice, clean, sparkly white. Ugh…and work on our taxes. And sew some curtains for...
