A week from now, I’ll be in Vegas. My husband and I are flying down with my brother and his wife to spend a weekend securing our financial futures and also to take in a show. More specifically, this show. I have to say, I’m not overly excited by the show, but I am looking [...]

As easy as 1 2 3

When we moved into this house, some 3 1/2 years ago now, I had no idea what to do for window coverings. I was thrilled to find paper blinds, which filled the bill quite well. I can become completely paralyzed when it comes to decorating decisions, so this bought me lots of time. In the [...]

Mini-vacation

I’ve been in Alberta for a few days, visiting the daughters and granddaughters — it was a quick visit, and long over due. I am basically exhausted and hope to spend most of tomorrow sleeping.

And the thunder rolls

I woke up to rolling thunder this morning. Severe weather, of any sort, is fairly uncommon where I live. We do get endless rain (and by gosh it’s raining right now) and some snow in the winter, but for the most part the weather is…well..even and steady whatever it has chosen to do. That’s not [...]

Playing hooky

I’m playing hooky today (at my mother’s urging no less!) and heading to the US for a day of yarn store finding and gambling. She tells me there’s a new shop in Lynden….I think she’s just saying that to get me to the casino.
I’ll report my findings (and losses…and purchases?) later.
