    Clutter’s Last Stand: Saturday

    July 29, 2017

    Dear Everyone, I am writing this letter to you from my current location in the hallway. I am surrounded on all sides by boxes. These are the deep, dark recesses of my guest room closet pulled out and exposed to light for the first time in three years. I have…

    So Fresh and So Clean Clean

    July 28, 2017

    The Man Knits.

    Well This Is New Even For Me

    July 13, 2017

    Last night the Captain called and said he wants to learn knitting. At first I thought I had accidentally dropped peyote or licked the wallpaper in a lead-based shanty but nope, it was not a dream, the man wants to learn to make a scarf! I got super excited. “I…

Right now I am …

Starting to take some of the improvements from the guest room and add them to my bedroom, like this cool power outlet for the bedside table. I’m hoping it helps with the constant problem of needing to charge all devices simultaneously.


Still obsessing over Sew Over It and Lisa Comfort, the lady boss behind it all. Here is her site, YouTube vlog, and Insta. I bought pretty much every pattern they have during the recent 30% off sale.


Currently reading The 4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss. I need this book to help me but I don’t have enough time to read this book because I’m working nonstop, so…


Interested in these silica gel packets for my yarn stash. Does anyone out there add these to ziplock baggies of yarn?

More pics from our walk around the ruins of Llanthony Priory, just north of us. This place is nearly 1,000 years old and it felt like a dream inside a dream.
