    August 9, 2017

    The final tasks are done: The curtains are hemmed and hung up, the bed is made, the room is clean and functional and inviting. The sheets are fresh and crisp, there is nary a cat hair on the bedspread, the delightful smell of Christmas is wafting out of the oil…

    Monday, But Also With a Thursday Feel

    August 7, 2017

    No You’re The One In Love With Acrylic Boxes (also: How To Remove Sticky Labels From Your True Love)

    July 16, 2017

    Hi. I am alone in my guest room and I am happy in this moment instead of hyperventilating in clutter-induced panic (see: yesterday) so something is working. In the words of Tyler Perry, HALLELU-YER. All the crystal-clear acrylic boxes I yammered on about the other day arrived and I spent…

Famous Last Words

"Where are we going and why are we in this handbasket?"

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?


Listening to lovely Carla Bruni singing “Quelqu’un m’a dit.”
