I finally managed to get the photos off of my camera. I still don’t know what the problem was but it doesn’t matter now because now, I can show you photos! For anyone who has never removed wallpaper before, it’s a pain in the ass. Luckily, we only had about two half walls of wallpaper [...]

Taking Back Summer
Posted in All About Me on July 29, 2009 | 4 Comments »
With August looming, it’s quickly becoming clear to me that Summer will be over before I know it. And as much as I love fall and all that the season has to offer, I dread the end of summer. For one, this summer has been unseasonably cool, so the humidity and unbearable heat haven’t been [...]

I went to the gym for the first time in MONTHS on Monday and boy, could I tell. After just two measly miles and 25 minutes on the treadmill, I tried to get on the elliptical to change up my cardio and I couldn’t even do five minutes because my poor legs just felt so [...]
You spoke. I listened.

I wasn’t kidding when I left it up to you guys to decide what we do about the bathroom. Every single person said to paint, so that’s what we did. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get my pictures off of my camera – the cord won’t recognize a new device, and the SD card doesn’t [...]
To Paint or Not to Paint?

Every summer, hubby and I like to take on new house projects. Last year was the deck, and the year before that (or maybe it was two years before) we remodeled our bathroom by tearing out the old cast iron tub and breaking up the dingy old tile floors to put in new, large tile [...]
Our first yard sale
Posted in Dolla Bills, Weekend on July 19, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Friday night we found out that two of our neighbors were having yard sales on Saturday morning so we took advantage of the guaranteed traffic thanks to all of their Craigslist promotions and signage, and threw together our own yard sale. The weather was simply perfect for it too.
It’s amazing what stuff people will buy. [...]
Must. Remember. To. Breathe.

I keep having to remind myself that it’s already Friday. There are so many things on my to-do list that I made on Monday that are still sitting there, glaring at me, impatiently waiting for me to do something about them. I’m trying, I swear, but I feel like I’m just treading water, both at [...]
I love nachos, but nachos don’t love me

I love baseball. More specifically, I love Cardinals baseball (and nachos). But I’m not really into the whole All-Star Game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely cool to see the city of St. Louis come alive with Cards fans, almost like it did during the World Series in 2006 (which we attended), but it just [...]
Reading Fiend

I’ve never been a very fast reader. I would try to read books at the same time as my friends and they would always finish a good two weeks before I would. I like to think that maybe they just had more free time, but the truth is, they’re just faster readers. I never “rush” [...]
Nintendo Party!
Posted in Uncategorized on July 12, 2009 | 3 Comments »
I promised to write more about the Nintendo party I attended, but I’m feeling quite lazy. Plus, Rebekah did such a fabulous job of recapping the event and posting all sorts of photos (I’m in a few!) that I think I’d rather just link to her instead.
Check it out!
