So I have been talking off and on about moving and this weekend Lou and I decided we needed to put our house up for sale. It’s time. Our interest only loan just ended last month and my hubby is killing himself working to make the crazy outrageous payment. The increase in payment and…

My home improvement plans for the weekend
Today I finally decided to tear out the bush/tree that I stare at everyday and HATE with a passion. I knew it would be hard to get out and have been putting it off but after my walk today, Tiara was still sleeping so I went to work. I first tried to dig it out…
A weekend without the computer or the hospital!
So you may have noticed I didn’t have a post on Monday, Memorial Day and that is because I decided to stay computer free Saturday and Sunday and just enjoy the weekend. I spent my time gardening! The great news is that Tiara made it through the weekend without a hospital visit. I took her…
Things are going downhill fast!
Yesterday I decided to start a huge project and now I am shooting myself in the leg for starting such a large endeavor. I was out in the backyard attempting to make my neglected yard look decent by weeding the beds and the area between the cement. When we bought this house over 10 years…
Did you know Easter was next Sunday?

After reviewing all the information he provided me, I decided to call him 4 days later and sign up for the bundled services. He was really surprised…
Mini-me and I on a mission

Oh yeah, I did it!
You are probably going to think I am insane, but I actually like putting together furniture from IKEA. Super crazy, right? I find it a huge challenge and if I can get the whole piece together without having to backtrack, unscrew and rescrew and manage not to lose or break any of the pieces,…
Brighten up your space in 5 minutes for free…
I love to have fresh flowers in my house at all times, but I can’t always make that a reality. I grew up in house where my mother always had vases of fresh flowers everywhere and of course I would love the same for my family. Prior to the recession I probably spent $25…
