I called my mom yesterday morning on her cell phone. She didn’t answer so I called the house. No answer. So I called .. My dad – Do you know where Mom is? (He didn’t.) Mom’s cell again. This time I left a message. It was too early to call my sister (she lives on [...]

Flowers & wine
I know buying flowers and wine as a gift is usually reserved for guys, but I realized the other night that flowers and wine are some of my favorite ways to treat myself. Flowers seriously brighten my day! I think they also help me keep the house clean and tidy. I guess it would seem [...]
Charley & Me.
A few weekends ago Corey and Charley went to Knoxville for the weekend (I stayed here and had the time of my life (watching TV until 1 a.m., painting the living room, sleeping in, etc.) and my mom was telling me after her night with Charley that her and my dad just can’t get over [...]
Pinterest goodies + one of the funniest things I’ve experienced in like forever:
Tell me I’m not the only one! I totally say on a weekly basis, “Girl, did you see that quote on Pinterest … bwahhaahhahaha!” There are so many funny little things and it truly is what I love most about Pinterest. So, I thought I’d share a few of my recent favs and then I [...]
Great Expectations
We’ve been traveling so much. During my final trip to see friends in Memphis and Nashville I told my girlfriend that from here on out we really should not be doing any traveling apart (minus on weekends). The lawyer we are working with in CA told us that he could call anyday, without warning, and [...]
Keeping what’s most important at the top of the list:
We have been traveling so much lately. LA to Santa Barbara to Los Gatos to Knoxville to Banner Elk to Knoxville and then back to Knoxville (deep breath in) and then just last week Charley and I were in Memphis and Nashville visiting friends. We are all finally home and unpacked and settled in for [...]
I have a slight obsession with documenting absolutely everything..
(even if that means I only use my iPhone (which is what I use to document the aforementioned “everything” 90% of the time.).). Just tonight we were on a walk around the neighborhood and Charley was trucking along in the goofiest outfit ever (too-small, pj bottoms, a mismatched hoodie, purple socks and black and gray [...]
The deets on our trip to L.A. and our journey to baby #2:
Well, we’ve been to L.A. and as would be expected I am blogging way late about it (I still have intentions of blogging about Charley’s birthday and party from JULY!). If you’re new around here or need a refresher you can read the post I wrote about why we went to L.A. here. We survived [...]
My thoughts on my last post + her & her “bay”
Confession: I’m not so sure I like my post from last week. I like to return to posts a day or so after they go live to try and read them as an “outsider” would. After I read my last post the following day this is what went through my head … – I sound [...]
The problem with the World Wide Web:
After our time in L.A. (more on that soon) we headed north for Santa Barbara. Our trip there was so refreshing and fun. Our two favorite memories were our two meetings with the beach. One day we rented bikes and rode to the beach. We had a picnic lunch right there on the warm, white [...]
