putting my own spin on things

Exhausted!

Uffda! What a long month it has been. How does it go so quickly? I’m back in classes for this term, and that’s kicking my butt a little bit. We’re also at Nanie’s one day every week trying to get things all squared away for a. the estate sale and b. the house sale. It’s read more

Gremlins + Intarwebz = Grr.

I’ve been having an issue this afternoon with wordpress forgetting it’s theme. So, instead of seeing a pretty blue background and a picture of roving, people see a blue box with a white background.

Memorium

Just before 9am on August 21, 2007, my husband’s beloved grandmother passed on. A heart attack on Monday morning caught us all by surprise as her health was very good. We are devastated, she was very very dear to all of us. I’m sure I’ll have more to say about her later, when the hurt read more

Doing vs. Discussing

A big part of why I don’t blog as much as I used to is that I spend a lot of my internet time doing research for other big things going on right now. No, I am not going to have a baby, just to clarify things. Let’s just say it will be great in read more

Out of Habit.

I have totally fallen out of the habit of writing in the blog. There have been lots of goings-on so I’ll do my best to update things here. For starters, we’re married. photo taken by sara.

Happy Birthday to Me

There’s nothing like an impending wedding to make your birthday feel mostly insignificant. But, I’ve officially entered the latter half of my twenties and we made the last huge arrangements for the wedding today. Now, I just have to stay sane for the next two and a half weeks, including having faith that a. my read more

Tumblr

TheBoy and I have been contemplating a few newish applications lately, including twitter and tumblr. Earlier today he and I both decided to get set up with the latter. I’ll probably post a smattering of things that I find that are interesting to me. Feel free to follow my meanderings at TheBon in Brief.
