I mentioned a couple of days ago that Jeff and I worked on getting the basement cleaned up to make it more functional.  That involved bringing in some more wire shelving and moving things around.  We’ve had a workbench that was left by the previous owners in the basement when we bought the house.  It […]

the boys' room

Today I did some house cleaning.  It really needed to be done.  I’ve always loved a clean house and used to clean at least twice a week when we lived in a tiny townhouse.  Between a bigger house, kids and a business, my tolerance of a messy home has increased.  I just don’t always have […]

trip to Ikea

Yesterday the boys were picking at each other a bit in the morning.  There’s been a lot of togetherness with all of the snow days, cancelled activities and two hour delays, so we decided they needed a bit of a break.  Or maybe we needed a bit of a break from the bickering.  Or maybe […]

I listed […]

Some days I just need to paint.  It’s therapeutic for me and it makes me feel a sense of accomplishment.  With a two hour school delay, I didn’t have a lot of time to get things done today, so I picked a small project I’ve been wanting to work on – painting this little stool. […]

Camera Comparison & Shop Goodies

Okay, I love winter and snow, but I’m done with it this year.  I’ve had enough and I’m ready for spring.  I’m sure I’m not alone in that sentiment.  We had another snow day today and more ice and snow in the forecast!  All was going pretty well today until I had a Skype call […]
