Laundry Room Remodel

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.

Seven Thirty Three – This Saturday’s Shout-Out

Many of you have now noticed that “Take 10 with Tricia” looks a bit whole hell of a lot different.  I was in dire need of a virtual makeover.  When I started this blog in January, I promised myself that I would get it going for a few months and then give it a face-lift.

Busted…The Jig is Up

Not only is today my 10th Wedding Anniversary, but it’s also my BIRTHDAY!  First thing this morning I received a great hand-made card from the kids…with all three hands traced as signatures. Age?  Well, I’ve been 28 for 7 years now.  HA!  The problem great thing about this is that Stella has believed I was

Whatcha Might Not Know…The Wedding Day

If you are just joining me recently, I’ve spent the last two Wednesdays talking about my marriage proposal and the pre-party.  Thinking back since tomorrow is our TEN year wedding anniversary.  Wow. We decided to get married where Andy grew up in Kentucky.  We only had 18 people at our wedding.  No, that is not
