Week 159! Update on my plants, bushes, and trees…my roses are producing buds, but they are just dead inside. My perennials (bees balm, yarrow, creeping phlox, and echinacea) have pretty much died out. The birch tree continues to lose leaves. I sent a text to the owner’s wife who runs the office. Still no response. …
Hey, look at me! I’m actually getting this out early! Welcome to the 10 on the 10th June Preview! I know some of my readers are in the Southern Hemisphere so I wanted them to feel a part of this 10 on the 10th, too. I feel like I used up all my really good …
Welcome back for this week’s edition of the Fashion Files, hosted by Amy and me! If you don’t know Amy, her blog is Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa.

Today, after whining and whinging about how hard my life has been lately, I’m going to share some of the little things that …

Style Imitating Art… It’s time for another round of Style Imitating Art! A few years ago, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that art, and share them on our blogs. Think of it as fashion meets art museum! Anyone and everyone is welcome and encouraged …
I am writing this after a few days home with Nigel. So far, he’s walking a little better every day. The first night was, pardon the pun, a nightmare. He was up every hour on the hour. The second night was so much better. One of his big precautions is to keep the angle of …
Week 157! I am so sorry for getting this out waaaay late! Nigel and I came home in the afternoon on Wednesday. If you’ve spent any time in a hospital, you know sleep is not a priority! I shouldn’t say that because the nurses are all doing everything they can to make your stay as …
