So it’s been a hot minute since I blogged about my house. Apparently people other than my mom and grandma read this blog (!!!!!), because I’ve been getting text messages with, “Where’s the rest of your house posts?!” So if you were one of those people, thank you! It gets tiring writing about the same thing…
DetailsI was all set to NOT write about my house. I’ve written nothing but house posts, and I’m getting tired of them. The two posts I really want to write are my definitive ranking of Taylor Swift music videos, and the shows I’m planning on watching this fall primetime season.But this is what happened. I…
DetailsDining room, reading room, dining room, reading room. Welcome to the battle that I have with myself every day. These rooms are both my favorites, and for so many good reasons.

DetailsAnd I quote… “I’ll definitely be posting progress as we go, the first post coming up soon describing paint selections!” That’s one of the last things that I wrote in my House Tour. To be fair, I definitely planned on being Blogger of the Year with this home repainting / housework process. I was going to…

When tragedies like Orlando strike the world, processing how to feel becomes part of the struggle of your day. At least for me it has. In the last 72 hours, I’ve experienced a full range of emotions. Pride in a community that is showing an outpouring of support amidst the chaos. Anger – at the…
DetailsOkay, everybody, this is a truth talk. Truthfully? Life gets hard sometimes. It’s confusing, and frustrating, and it’s hard to figure out!
