I'm back....anybody still out there?
So while I know I wasn’t the best poster to begin with, I don’t I posted much of anything in the last year. Tomorrow will be my one year anniversary at this job. This job that has left me with no free time, limited Internet access, and 15 extra lbs but I do have 1/3 of the commute! I still haven’t figured out if this place is for me…. Yes one day shy of a full year here and...

Oh Happy Miracle...: And it sprayed out like a... →
ohhappymiracle:
Just a little tip for my IVF’ers. Don’t freak out if you give yourself a shot in your booty and blood spews out like a waterfall. It happened last night and then one other time. When I pulled out the needle, um, let’s just say the floor was covered. Yikes! But it doesn’t hurt—it just scares the…
was it blood that spewed out or just the the stuff that you injected? do you...
Love Puppy: Little Boxes →
lovepuppy:
Just a few minutes ago, Adam and I packed up the last box. It’s been 10 days since we decided to officially make the move (6 of those were spent in Iceland) and it’s been nothing short of stressful getting everything sorted out. But we’re excited.
Tomorrow we’re packing up the U-Haul and heading…
what! TELL US MORE! good luck to you both!

sparklyofmyveryown:
I’m at the age now where most of the people I know or went to college or high school with are having babies or already have kids. In fact, I have one friend that has a 14 year old.
I go back and forth on the thought of wanting kids. Now remember, I said the “thought” which means I’m talkin’…

Aunt Peaches: Big Alice’s Apple Kuchen
this is the best story i have read on the internet in a very long time, possibly ever. this is the kind of stuff that makes me laugh people. yes i laughed out loud at this. really loud. i guess that’s what happens when you have a big family. yes i have no siblings. thats right no brothers or sisters. but family i have. a lot of family. and some...

Tomorrow=1 hour massage!
Sweet Patrick got me a gift card for a 30 min bc he thought I might just die if I didn’t get some relief (I’ve got a hip/back combo injury from running and I’ve had a mini-migraine for the past 2 days from some major work stress), so I took the half-hour and raised it to…
i had a one hour hot rock massage last night. and it was awesome. i...

Very proud to inform you that my dollhouse is featured on Curbed National today!

What I Learned Today: one time →

a man murdered his girlfriend. He was on PCP and had no memory of it. Neither hypnosis nor drugs released any memory of the deed. The man served time in a psychiatric hospital for the criminally insane and accepted his punishment, though he likely was not insane but instead, under the…
wow really, i think i will have to check this out….

I spoke in an earlier post about a new life philosophy, so here you go. It’s nothing ground shattering or epic, but it’s real, it’s me, and it’s my life.
This first part is a few selections from Donald Miller’s “Through Painted Desserts.”
“All my life I have been changing. I changed from a…

job search status
so as some of you may know I have been commuting 150 miles round trip to work each day. I would imagine this is shocking to some people and no bother to others. its been almost a year and honestly I have gotten pretty used to it. I wake up at 4:45am and I roll out of bed somewhere around 5:10-5:20am (depending on the morning), I hit the road about 5:40-5:50am and get to work at about 7am and then...

I was listening to the radio today and they were talking about what is appropriate in relationships in regards to the opposite sex.
The married male host apparently hung out alone with the female of their best couple friends and his other friends thought it was really weird.
Where do y’all…

I am wrong? I think I need HELP!
while the baby bug has bitten me, and I am completed infected with its venom, I’ve only been married for 3 months. I think it totally makes sense that we are choosing to wait a little bit and just be married for at least a year before we start even trying for a little one. there’s so much we want to do, with our home (which we have only been in a year) and our lives (travel more, a...
