and this winter, that is not to be taken for granted! before i go on, i want to say thank you to everyone who took the time to comment on friday’s post about morgan. your kind words and thoughts meant a lot to us. the grief is still hitting in waves and i’m sure that...
i feel like i need to apologize. i have been like a stinkin’ broken record lately. maybe it has something to do with not getting out much? on a positive note, i guess redundancy does indicate authenticity….like i’m saying it so much, i must mean it, right? i can definitely laugh at myself. eye-yi-yi. so...
as i sit editing photos at the far end of our family room, i often have the tv on, but i’m not necessarily “watching”. if i hear something i’m interested in, i may stop and pay attention. lots of times, i’ll have the tv on sirius radio and be listening to the gospel or r...
i’m very visual, so whenever i think of the 5 senses, i think of sight first. being surrounded by things that i find beautiful and inspiring is important to me. it also explains why i am on a mission to get rid of clutter that isn’t “good clutter”. to me “good clutter” would be a...
i love about january in nebraska is that organizing and starting fresh come very easily. there is a ton of snow and the temps are below zero, the holidays are over and business has slowed down, so it’s actually the perfect combination for starting afresh and staying in and organizing. that’s the positive way of looking at...
if there’s anything we want to do for the holidays, it’s now or wait until next year, right? i already have a list of ideas for next year! i’ll share those early in the season next year and hopefully accomplish them. overall, i’m pleased with the things i’ve done this year, even though once again...
i think one of the things that is most appealing to me about blogging and the whole concept of being online, is all the inspiration. i think the internet has had far, far more positive effects on my life than negative. i like to focus on the positive : ) even though the majority (by...
i’ve mentioned how much i love good light many times. of course, i’m partial to huge windows and natural light, but i also appreciate pretty incandescent light too. i’m not a fan of one overhead light in a room. i don’t think many people are, but i think sometimes it’s overlooked. from the time we...
i’m thrifty. although i really like quality things, i do like a bargain almost as much. so my approach to the holidays is this: create an atmosphere in our home that is cozy, festive, pretty, meaningful and as non-commercial as possible….spending as little as possible. this year, i haven’t spent any money on anything for...
so as some of you know, i used to have a cleaning business with my good friend joan. i went into it, thinking i knew quite a lot about cleaning, just because when you keep your own house, you have to figure it out. but, i must say, that doing it for a living daily,...
