to thine ownself be true.
Rings. I like the idea of rings. My wedding ring has been a tight squeeze to get over my knuckle since I was pregnant, so I’ve been going without rings for years now. But last year while we were in Galway, I let the girls pick out Claddagh rings. And I found a thumb ring

learning: guitar
At last! I’ve been wanted to learn to play the guitar since forever. But life happened. And I put it off and put it off. Part of my Happiness Project has been to make time for myself in order to pursue (all) the things that I’ve been putting off for so long. Unfortunately, I get

happiness project: exercise (aug) + misc
Create, Project 45, and the monthly projects in my Happiness Project … so many projects! In reality, they are all facets of the same project, guiding me to finish or give up old projects and move forward on the ones that are most important to me. July’s main theme was Career. My plan is that

back to school.
After an action-packed summer, the girls started back-to-school yesterday. For the first time ever, the girls are in the same school and Chloe has teachers that had Camille as a student. I think in some ways, the girls are happy to get back to their routines, friends, and studies. As for me, I’m hoping the

Today is National Cheesecake Day and International Day of Friendship. Up early to clean and work. Rob took Chloe to get a bank account then both girls to breakfast at Waffle House. We then went to the Tiny House Festival. Long lines, overcrowded, and hot. We only went in a few of the houses before
my not-so-tiny house.
Five years ago, our family of four went through a major downsize. We moved from a three-story, three-bedroom, 3.5 bath, two car garage, storage room, giant house (in the absolute best place ever – nothing will ever compare to Pine Lake) to a downtown Decatur condo. Two-bedrooms, two bathrooms, an office, a laundry room, and

While on our out west, spring break, college tour trip, we spent the night between Portland and San Francisco along the coast in Bandon, Oregon. A sweet little town with a gorgeous beach! I’d love to return some day to spend little more time exploring the area.
