At the end of December, I dropped a bomb post stating I was certifiably insane. Yup, I started another bathroom renovation, but it was necessary. That basement bathroom was so dingy and yucky; there was no excuse not to update it. As long as we're getting dusty and Gerry and his crew were at the house anyway, why not knock it all ou[...]
The other week you got to read the doozy of a story about how The Boy broke the basement. Many of you sent me sweet messages saying, I'm so sorry...oh that darn deductible. How much will that cost to fix? Can it be repaired? Chin up. This is just so awful. How on earth did a sink do this much damage? You guys, these are al[...]
With all the Cubs hoopla, my Week 5 One Room Challenge post got a bit lost in the shuffle. But don't you worry that pretty little head of yours; we are on schedule and feeling fly y'all. Potty Paradise is almost complete, and Gerry and I are snoopy dancing on the Clé Tiles...okay, Gerry's technically not dancing like this, but I'm all..[...]

Can we all take a pause a[...]

Gerry and his team are hard at work and so am I...finally picked a tile for the bathroom makeover, and lemme tell you, it wasn't an easy choice. Wanna get into it? Let's roll! First and[...]
Oh, One Room Challenge...you are the mistress I love to hate. Your pull is strong, my dear. When I don't participate, I feel left out...but when I do, I question my sanity. For those unfamiliar with the One Room Challenge...or The ORC as my fellow bloggers refer to it as...it's a challenge to makeover a room in only 6 weeks and document[...]
For the last couple of years, the back patio has been our labor of love (and hate). We've had some frustrating times and tears might have been shed, decks and stairs built, ripped out, and rebuilt again. It was a wild ride, but I'm happy to report, IT'S COMPLETE, and I'm happy as a clam. Well, minus furniture it's complete, but I had to[...]
