About the Old House Blogger Contest

I’ve had people ask how they can vote. I think for right now they are just going to pick who they think are the top five. Then you will have an opportunity to leave a comment on their blog to vote for my entry. My entry was the “One Month” post. I’m seeing other people [...]

How can it be?

That it is almost the weekend again? It doen’t even begin to make sense to me! Its been a fairly good week with a good dose of doctor’s visits, hard work and some good family time here and there! We are constantly trying to take deep breaths and slow down. This time of our lives [...]

Sunday Sunday

Sunday was a very busy day…I am not quite sure why I even say that! Every day has been insanely busy since we bought this home! But there is nothing like standing on our front porch soaking in the view or sitting in my kitchen feeling the evening breezes float through the window to very [...]
