Last Saturday, Mallory decided to celebrate her birthday by booking a private party at Painting with a Twist.  I was excited to go even though I can’t paint.  No seriously, I am not skilled at drawing, painting or rotating shapes.  I was a little bit nervous but the neat thing about this establishment is that [...]

Today marks 5 months before my 30th birthday.  6 months probably would have been the ideal time to post an update, but that falls in the chaos before Christmas and New Year so it slipped through the cracks. Things I’ve accomplished so far: Buying a cottage in Oscoda Taking photos to blow up and frame [...]

Like many others around the internet(z), I have become a big fan of Pinterest.  It’s the best way to keep track of interesting things on the internet and keep them in one place.  Here are a few things I can’t wait to try:   Yummy lunch ideas Banana Oatmeal Smoothie Double Fudge Irish Cream Cookies [...]

I don’t usually put a lot of thought into the “new year”.  January 1st mostly  feels like another day to me.   I do enjoy all the time off around it though.  This year was the first time in 10 years (!) I had to work the week between Christmas and New Year.  It was [...]

Remeber that time I said I loved my Nook Simple Touch?  I guess I should have waited a couple days before I declared love to it.  It shut down on me after just 5 days.  Like a bad boyfriend it froze up on me.  I wasn’t ready to give up on it so I googled [...]

I like Thanksgiving, who doesn’t like a holiday that revolves around giving thanks and food?  There really isn’t much not to like.  After a long morning of cleaning and straightening up I spent some quiet time with the doggies. This weather is pretty amazing. It’s been in the 50-60′s for the past week. Pretty unheard [...]

It’s November?! I know I start a lot of posts like that.  Time flies by and I have no idea where it has gone.  This year we have less pictures to document how we spent our summer, hell most of fall too.  Changing jobs at the beginning of summer may have had something to do [...]

For my birthday I got my very own DSLR, a Canon Rebel T3.  I had all kinds of high hopes of making time to teach myself more about manual mode, aperture, shutter speed and lighting.  Then life happened and my summer was stuffed full of fun stuff, regular stuff and stuff I didn’t want to [...]

I have a friend that ventured to Thailand  this past year and she (Hi Amy!) told me stories about the Thai massages, among other things that made me rethink wanting to visit this exotic location but that is neither here nor there.  I’m very interested in Eastern medicine and homeopathic healing so after hearing about [...]

A little bit of my life in pictures, I saved the best for last: Scary weather makes for beautiful skies at the Kid Rock concert at Comerica Our Lady Peace at the Tecumseh Corn Fest A day at a landfill for work – Go Wings! A new vanity and floor in the cottage bathroom Starting [...]
