I will be the first to admit Nigel and I watch some really strange tv. We seem to always watch something supernatural, gory, or just plain weird. I’m not sure what that says about us. Well, maybe more about me because, if Nigel had his way, it would be Ancient Aliens, The Curse of Oak …
“Here to Forever” Happy Boxing Day! Don’t know what that is? I wrote a post about it (here). I know many of you are probably still in the midst of holiday celebrations! We had an amazing Christmas weekend. My youngest son went to Christmas Eve services with me. On Christmas Day, everyone was over in …
A different denim dress… I love a good denim dress. I have several in different washes. Most of them are shirt dresses. But, this one! Oh, this is so different from the others! I bought it on my trip to Asheville. You can read about that here. This is the Jackie Denim Dress. I like …
I’m not sure about where you live, but here, in the Midwest, winter seems to have descended upon us! We really had a mild fall, and even though the calendar says we’re still in fall, we’ve had snow on several days now. Last week, it was even measurable! Today is the third Thursday of November …
I have a thing for graphic tees. I like the graphic tees with only pictures. But, a graphic tee with a message is even better! Once upon a time, Nigel and I laughed ourselves silly when we happened upon a website selling graphic tees with rather naughty sayings on them! We didn’t buy any, but, …
I feel like my world has shrunk drastically in the last few weeks. It seems to consist of a garage and a house with occasional trips outside to take care of Jack’s toilet needs! So, when I received a phone call from Suzie at J Jill inviting me to the launch of their new Pure …
When I was a little girl, the front porch was off limits to me as well as my siblings. Our front porch was basically a large square of concrete with a step or two coming off of it. The only people who ever came to the front door were salesmen. Everyone else always came to …
A little history When I graduated from college, finding a teaching position was darn near impossible. I remember attending a senior “symposium” (aka senior meeting) letting us know only about ten percent of us would actually end up being an employed teacher. Funny how they waited until that very last semester. There were several people …
“When Doves Cry” Usually, I begin these posts whining about how short a month has been. July is crawling like a puppy stuck in peanut butter and taking time to clean off his paws all the while having said peanut butter stuck to the top of his mouth! It is dragging, my friends! But, having …
You need some… Do you have golden friends? I am talking about those people in your lives who love you no matter what, can finish your sentences, laugh at the same goofy things, basically, your husband/wife/significant other in friend form! I have been blessed with lots of friends in my life. But, they have come …
