It’s Monday morning and the list of “to-do’s” in front of me is very daunting. After being gone for three days my house is in need of some serious cleaning, I still have more laundry to do (despite doing multiple loads yesterday), the cupboards and fridge need to be restocked, and I’m behind on writing.

The music buzz this week has definitely been the world of Country Music with the Country Music Awards taking place this past Wednesday in Nashville. So, it only seems appropriate that my Friday Favorite this week is Norah Jones’ latest album …Featuring!

I’m traveling this week. To LA (more on that later). By myself. I don’t know the last time I actually traveled by myself — at least someplace further than a few hours away, let alone on an airplane. I think it was college, which was more than 10 years ago. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve [...]

The time has come for the girls to share a bedroom.  Yikes!  We were holding off as long as possible but we also wanted to make sure we gave them some time to get used to it all before the baby comes. Why were we (and by we I  mean me) hesitant? It’s just been [...]

This seemed like the longest Halloween weekend ever! I think it was mostly due to the fact that our area just couldn’t decide on just one day to do trick-or-treating! Weird, I know.
