Not as productive as some weekends, Ryan got very little sleep last week (getting up at 5am is definitely rough) and I was exhausted which meant I got a headache AGAIN on Sunday – fun times. Anyhow, we did get some work done 🙂 Saturday we recycled half of the aluminum we’ve been storing, then …
Things may be slow around here for a while, got a new book in the mail from pre-order so I completely forgot it was coming… Evening plans are mostly on hold while I finish up this ‘story’ that I’ve been waiting to finish for years now! It works out great, been fighting headaches lately and …
I’ve been a little busy with work lately (read that: really busy). However I do make sure and take a little down time to read before I go to bed (even if my only break to read is between midnight and 1am which means I’m exhausted the next morning). What am I reading – a …
It’s official, I really like Julie Klassen’s books.  I got both her first and second books for free on the Kindle (Lady of Milkweed Manor and The Apothecary’s Daughter). They’re regency era and contain a lot of historical information on specific topics. Lady of Milkweed Manor was about a young woman who gets pregnant out …
I got a little distracted after lunch reading my kindle book. A couple of hours later Ryan got home (still reading). So that got me motivated to get the tile sealed while he mowed the lawn… Finally done with the last tile related step! Unfortunately my book kept drawing me in so I finally went …

I’ve decided that Tuesday nights will be craft night, which means I’ll do whatever I’m in the mood for but it’s not house work and it’s not work work. So last night I went into my craft room around 7:30 and decided I wanted to go through my old unfinished projects to see what inspired …
The most stressful part of flying for me is getting to the airport and through security on time. Once I know for sure that I’m going to make my flight I can relax and enjoy the ride (as much as you can enjoy a loud, cramped ride). I do like take off and landing and …
It’s been a hectic week back to work for both Ryan and I. Monday and Tuesday night found us both at work late. Finally tonight we were both home by 7 so we had a quick dinner and then a nice walk around the neighborhood. I’m enjoying a new author on my ipod – Lisa …
I just got back from a 3 day vacation in Maine with Sarah. The 3 days included the drive up and back which is significant (just over 4 hours) but we got a lot of stitching done. We decided to continue the tradition of stitching on Celtic Banner which we started together in Maine 4 …
