Home Update: Office Progress
Happy Sunday to you! I am completely exhausted today and I was the same way last weekend. I think the "burned out" feeling from doing so much during the move and when my friends were in town has finally caught up with me. I made some progress on my office today and also cleaned up the guest bedroom and the entire second floor of our house so ...
New Closet: Disaster to Workable
Hello everyone! Just a quick note to say that AT&T is FINALLY installing internet and U-Verse in our home tomorrow so things should be back to normal soon (now that I've missed the finales of Bachelor Pad, True Blood and Curb Your Enthusiasm...but that's neither here nor there). I wanted to post this quick update of my closet progress. I spent ...

Toronto Friends Visit Houston!
Even though the month of August was extremely stressful for me, as I mentioned in my last post, I was overjoyed that my lovely Canadian friends Heather and Ashley surprised me a few months ago with an email telling me they wanted to visit me here in Houston September first.

How I Spent…August (Packing, Stressing, Moving)
So let's not beat around the bush here and just say it how it is. I haven't blogged in what feels like forever. Many of you may remember me alluding to the fact that August was a very stressful month for me but I never quite said why. I was too nervous and didn't want to jinx anything (yep, I'm a little superstitious). Well, as you know, we ...
A Different Kind of Saturday
Happy Saturday everyone! On Friday morning I was listening to the news as I was getting ready for work and KPRC said that a local organization was looking for volunteers to pack boxes for Somalia. I immediately thought, "yup, that's what I'm doing Saturday" which was a surprise to me since I don't really have any regular volunteer ...
Friday Evening Bloggin’: Target Trip & Loving Kate Middleton
Two days in a row of blogging---I'm well on my way to breaking records here, people! (insert sarcasm here). Today after work I stopped at Target because my co-worker was wearing the CUTEST Xhiliration dress from there and I just had to have it. It's a little short in the smaller sizes so I got a large and will belt it for optimum fit (plus, the ...
iPhone Snaps Part II
Hello ladies! This was a tough week for me. I took my first real sick day in over a year. I stayed home from work on Monday because I thought I was dying. I literally texted my husband "I think I'm dying." I had a throat infection that turned into a sinus infection and the pressure in my head was so intense that I thought my brain was ...
