Still Snowed In

With all the snow keeping us from getting out of our neighborhood by car, we went for a walk. It was about 20 degrees outside, but the sun was brilliant. It was truly a beautiful day! Of course, that's because I LOVE snow and cold weather. I would be thrilled if it stayed like this for 3 months--as long as they cleared the streets so...

More Winter Weather

We woke up to more snow this morning. It's surprising because we didn't get more than a few flurries last winter, or the winter before, I think. I love snow, so I was thrilled. Kelly, not so much.

I usually pick some up at Publix when I do my grocery shopping, and have it for lunch.This evening, when I went outside to feed the cats, I noticed hundreds of these turkey vultures migrating through our land. They would fly in shifts, slowing...

More Decorating Progress

One of these days, I might actually be finished! But this morning I picked up my new desk and bookcase from ModerNash, a great little company that takes orders for Ikea goods and runs down to Atlanta and brings them back.

M & C's Quest for Holy Matrimony

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Michelle and Craig during their scouting trip to Hawaii for their "semi-destination" wedding. Both of them currently live in California, but Craig is originally from Oahu and still has lots of family here, thus the "semi" part. I really enjoyed talking story with them about their wedding plans, and...

More Progress on the Office Renovations

A little more progress has been made on the office renovations. Kelly got the woodwork at the ceiling and around the windows and the baseboards done. I got the curtains hung. I LOVE my curtains. In fact, I kind of based the whole room on the curtains. I was inspired by my friend Carrie's Blog Entry.I wanted that green velvet settee,...
