Basically, 25 goals I want to accomplish by my 25th birthday on September 18. 1. Be a better Christian: attend church regularly, finish The Purpose Driven Life, read the Bible.I’m been doing okay on church, and I’ve actually been praying… View Post »

Happy Sunday Social Sunday and Happy St. Patricks Day! This Week’s Questions:1. Favorite thing to do on a rainy day? Drive to Charlotte for work and sit in traffic for three hours (like the last few times and tomorrow)? But really, lay around, read blogs, watch the Food Network. 2.

15 on the 15th
March is the month when the day of both our anniversaries matches the months since that date. Cray cray. 15 whole months ago, Mac and I jumped off the deep end into the crazy world of marriage. We kept it a secret so that people would take our wedding seriously. Is that bad? Ours was not the typical “shot-gun” wedding: we weren’t pregnant and didn’t have an impending deployment. We… View Post »
Just because we’re springing forward
I woke up to my 9 am alarm on Sunday, groggy and bewildered as to how it was already 9 am. After all, we did leave the bar in Georgetown wayyy past our bedtime but waaayyyyy before closing. I can neither confirm nor deny that we left before midnight. Old people problems. Then it hit me: daylight savings time. That bitch. Dammit, Tyrone. The weather is finally trending warmer. Don’t… View Post »

Tasty noms…. View Post »

National Craft Month
March is National Craft Month, so I’ve decided to actually finish some of the crafts languishing in my new craft room. My car is in the shop today, and I’m stuck at home. Might as well get started! First off, a curtain for the Bigfoot window. Second, a cover for my sewing machine. I found Virginia Tech fabric to make it. Third, yet more sewing. I’m going to make a… View Post »
