#Project52 – Nature
I was supposed to write up a post with photos from nature for this week’s #EverydayProject52 post. But when I got home, I found out that our outside kitten, Geordi, died today. Matt found him out by the road. So, I don’t feel much like sharing photos of bright flowers. Instead, I thought I would…

Do you have book buying bans for yourself? The closest I have ever come to a real book buying ban is my husband telling me that I have too many books. Of course, that’s probably because my massive bookshelf at home is overflowing. I probably have close to 100 books sitting on my shelf that…

Welcome to Coffee Talk! Grab your favorite morning beverage – unless, of course, it’s evening where you live- and join me for a chat. Attack of the Bluejays A couple nights ago, I went out to pick limbs up out of the yard between storms. It seemed like a great idea until I started to…
Read More#Project52 – From Where I Stand
From where I stand, clutter is a symptom of a creative mind. The walls in my office at work are covered in art and inspiration. I even have a shelf full of fun toys – I swear I don’t play with them at work – that make me happy to look at. Of course, my…
