We close on our house in two days.  OMG.  
 
We have successfully (I say we, but really it’s Chris.  Without his financial expertise and his detail oriented brain, this never would have happened.  I’m more of a “ooh, that’s pretty. I want” kind of girl with a little buyers remorse later) saved more than my [...]

Purpose else….

Posted in crafting, life, relationships on February 24, 2009 | 1 Comment »

Then, today, Chris sent me a link to a recent Zen blog, “I can’t get no satisfaction syndrome”, and how to beat it.
While I was reading, I realized that I’d heard these things several times and in several places, and I think that without actually knowing it, I was [...]

Ending the silence

Posted in life on February 11, 2009 | 2 Comments »

I’ve also been spending my [...]

Here’s another questions from my dearest cuz and blogger bud, Lily!
3.  Last week, you posted about my rush to grow up and your determination not to.  Now that you’re in your mid-twenties, happily married, and about to buy a house – what’s the best and worst thing so far about being a “dolt”?
The best thing about being a [...]

Mos Maiorum

One of many southern moments

Posted in life, relationships, tagged , , on December 14, 2008 | 4 Comments »

Tonight at family dinner with the in-laws (this is a weekly occurrence), I had the chance to partake in a few wonderfully southern dishes.  
We had fried pickles for our appetizer, and then I had shrimp and grits for my dinner!  Yum!  I love some shrimp and grits.  
But now my stomach is reeling from such [...]

Saturday update

Saw Twilight again on Thursday with some friends from work (holla’ y’all)!  The book is DEFINITELY better.  But, the movie is still good.  So that makes 3 times, and I think I’m committed to one more time with one more friend, and that’s cool.
