Armchair Puzzlers is a great book I happened upon at the thrift store today for 50 cents. I am elated to have found this book. It turned out to be one of those books that my children just took an instant liking to and they’ve passed it around now from one person to the next and […]

Today was a good day, although I’m tired! I got my computer back today. I’m glad about that.
While I was out today I stopped at a Habitat for Humanity store and found a really nice book for 50 cents — my big thrift store splurge today!
It’s the one on the left: 100 Details from […]

Houseplant and Doll House Things
January 29th, 2008 · No Comments
I’m nearly done rambling for the day. I promise.
The upstairs hallway is where I keep my houseplants. I had noticed of late that the asparagus fern was looking a little less energetic than usual. I figured I might as well spend some of my hallway-cleaning time on repotting the asparagus fern.
That’s what the cleaning schedule is […]

Enamel Top Table
January 29th, 2008 · No Comments
So my cleaning schedule had me in the kitchen today, as well as the pantry and the hallway. I have been thinking that one of these weeks in the kitchen I would clean my kitchen table really good. It’s an old enamel top table that I found at a thrift store about 12 years ago. I […]

Tailbone Length Hair

For the long hair ladies I know, I reached tailbone length.
It’s swinging, so it’s hard to tell, but it’s definitely there!!

Old Steamer Trunk
January 29th, 2008 · 2 Comments
This post is for Hannah at Cultivating Home. She wrote about her living room redo and her old trunk. I left her a comment, as her post made me wonder if my trunk was like hers…or not! Her writing prompted me to uncover mine (it had a throw over it and doubled as a living room […]

Pretty Home Sights
January 28th, 2008 · 3 Comments
I love just being home and walking around my house — cleaning, straightening, appreciating. This morning I cleaned the three rooms on my cleaning schedule.
I love clean, bright windows. (Actually I love how the sun is shining here today!)
Cleaning things makes them shine. My bathroom shelf is spotless.
Once done, it’s nice to go outside and […]

Home Again, Home Again

And there’s no place like home. No matter how wonderful a place you’ve been or how necessary a place you’ve been, there’s no place like home.

I went to work with a somewhat heavy heart. All you need to do is read my rambling thoughts from this morning (i.e. […]

Lessons in Journaling
January 27th, 2008 · 2 Comments
I’m well this morning, but I could certainly be depressed if I tried even a little. These are the kinds of mornings that I pull one of my many journals off the shelf to soothe my soul with memories and try to get a handle on my thoughts. I read. I write. I read some more.
I have […]

My Saturday Morning Post
January 26th, 2008 · No Comments
Fridays are my Mondays. Anyone who works and has their days off in the middle of the week will know what that means.
So I get the Monday blues on Fridays — when I happen to get the Monday blues, that is. I didn’t yesterday. Most of the time I enjoy getting to work because I love […]
