Because I’m not all about home repair and craft fairs, I went out with a friend to an event called Dueling Pianos this past Saturday night. Generally, I enjoy going out and listening to music, dancing, movies, dinner and socializing in general. As much as I enjoy being a homebody, going out feeds my…

Hallway Refresh-Update
I have a brief and not terribly exciting hallway refresh update for you. It’s a little exciting because I have finally decided on the color I will paint the walls but otherwise I haven’t gotten much done. It should come as no surprise that I am behind where I thought I’d be on this project. …

December Small Goals
Well let’s see how well November turned out (or not)!! Weekly face mask-this time I’ll choose a different day to shoot for. Mondays clearly don’t work! (FAIL)! I did not manage to give myself not even one face mask this month. It’s crazy because I really like face masks. I know part of the reason…

Belmont Craft Fair-what I learned
I participated in my very first craft fair on Saturday, November 18. I was very nervous but excited as well. I participated with a friend who was selling earrings and having a friend there was a great help. Another friend came to help with our table and that added support helped quite a bit. The…

For the first time in my creative life, I am participating in a local holiday craft fair. I have made cards for years now as a hobby. I make cards for all my family and friends for birthdays and other occasions. Over the years, many have told me that I should sell my cards.…

Memory Keeping
Zombie Planner Crop with Carpe Diem
I haven’t always considered myself a creative person but over the past 15 years I have tapped into my creative energy in several different ways. I enjoy taking pictures, making cards, scrapbooking, creating home decor projects, doing project life and paper planning. Like many, I’m still finding my groove with my style and system, but…
Book Club/Books
Book Club Babes
Since November 2005, I have been part of an amazing book club. It started casually enough; I emailed a couple of friends in October of that year and asked if in the new year they might be interested in starting a book club. Someone (I don’t recall who) replied with, “Why wait. Let’s start…

November Small Goals-How I plan to get things done
Like many people, I love to make goals. Also like many, I don’t always do much more than make goals. The first of the year always feels like the right time to make goals but you don’t have to wait until then. Goal setting can be done at any time of the year. There are…

DE-CLUTTERING PROJECT-THE KITCHEN
I have been on a mission to declutter different areas of my home for many years now. I always started with good intentions but things would revert back to messy and cluttered at some point. Partly, it was because I never stopped bringing new stuff in, never got rid of enough, or had so…
