Home Remodeling In mid-2019 we decided it was time to update our laundry room which is also our kitchen pantry. One of the previous owners had installed built-in shelves, but they were starting to sag and had no adjustability. The shelves were stationary and couldn’t move up or down. Some of them were super deep
Just Cool It
There are so many things going on right now that it’s hard to juggle it all. Almost like the crazy and devestating storms that were nearby on Friday sent my world a bit out of kilter. I’ll just ask for comforting thoughts for a friend and healing thoughts for a relative. And lots of prayers for
Ikea – This Saturday’s Shout-Out
So, I started to tell y’all about the laundry room yesterday. And the biggest thing was removing the table and creating space for this: We had some pretty awful storms near and around us last night. The only good thing that came out of them was the fact that Andy’s office closed at 3:30 to make
Laundry Room Re-Do Part 1
My house doesn’t have a pantry, but I’m blessed with an awesome laundry room. When you come into the house from the garage you enter a small mudroom. From there you can either go right into our kitchen or left into our laundry room. I absolutely LOVE having the laundry on the first floor.
Whatcha Might Not Know…7×7 Blog Award
Yes, this is one of those. And it’s my turn to participate in the fun. Blogging is such an interesting community. We have our own language with words like blog carnivals, meme, and linky. The are “friendships” I made that are definitely real, but unusual. I love how Sarah writes about going to meet
Top 10 Celebrity Crushes
So it’s Oscar week. And I’m still regretting staying up as late as I did to watch them. But I LOVE movies. And I had seen “The Help”, “The Descendants” and “Moneyball”. So I wanted to stay up and see who won what. During that time I posted about Colin Firth on FB. And someone
St. Patrick’s Day Thumbprint Clover
Last week I shared a few St. Patrick’s Day ideas including this craft. It was super easy and the kids enjoyed tolerated it. I just used some paint, not a stamp pad. I couldn’t stand the thought of not knowing whose thumbprints were whose years from now. So I wrote a tiny “S”, “C”, or
Bathtub Dress Ups – This Saturday’s Shout-Out
A couple of years ago the girls received a bathtub Barbie Dress Up toy. They get to play with it probably once a week. (Not every bath) And it will usually keep them happy until their fingers are completely shriveled. Best. toy. ever. The Barbie is actually in two pieces… Lots of outfits to
Let’s Get This Straight…
Just a few things to get straight this Friday afternoon… First, this smoothie I pinned…not so good. The green monster was somewhat green ick. Four cups of spinach was just way.too.much for our household. Charlotte said yuck from the beginning. Stella tried to like it, but didn’t last past 4 sips. Henry refused it from the
Annual Day-You-Get-Dirty Day
Last year’s Ashes – no picture today! Yesterday a co-worker and I were talking about Lent. She stated something like “Oh, right, tomorrow’s the day you get dirty.” Um, what? Oh, ashes. Yep. Is that toner on your forehead, ma’am? Nope. It’s ashes. Ashes? Yep. (Conversation really happened when I lived in Alabama…not a
