A happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there yesterday!
While I realize I’ve been light in the posting department lately, I wanted to give a little shout out to dads.
Dads are awesome aren’t they?
I mean, don’t get me wrong, moms are awesome too. But I’m a firm believer that having . . . → Read More: Fathers

This week, everyone up and left me. Just like that! Can you believe it? Total lame-sauce. I suppose they didn’t leave me behind on purpose, it’s just how it turned out. But still…
On Thursday the husband left for a 4 day backpacking trip through the Southern Utah wilderness. As he has been finishing . . . → Read More: All by my lonesome

So much news lately! So much to write! And yet, I seem to be so easily distracted by eating peanut butter and honey sandwiches (have you tried adding bananas? Delicious!) and watching episodes of Hoarders, which is straight-up ridiculous. But really? I’m spent. I’m forcing myself to relax a little this weekend, which has . . . → Read More: At last…

Today is Wednesday which I am very happy about, because in two days it will be Friday, and after Friday comes a weekend which means I don’t have to work. I live for the weekends. Saturday means I get to stay in comfy pants most the day and get things organized and to feel . . . → Read More: Working for the weekend

See this dude right here?
Back off ladies, that’s my husband. He’s pretty awesome.
Yesterday was his birthday. He turned 30. Thiiiirrrrttyyyyyyy. He likes when I say it nice and slow like that, to really appreciate the sound of it. He also likes when I say things like, “The big 3-0, huh? Wow!” . . . → Read More: Birthday boy

Lately, I don’t recognize my husband.
I used to know him as the guy in the house with his eyes glued to Sports Center. Or a Yankees game. Or Jazz game. Or pretty much any game at all.
These days though, I find him curled up in the corner of the couch, TV off. . . . → Read More: Who are you and what have you done with my husband?

There are a lot of words you could use to describe my husband: Competitive. Sentimental. Hard-working. Athletic. Fun. Soft-spoken.
CARNIVORE.
And not just as in “oh sure, a little grilled chicken would be nice.” I mean carnivore as in, “give me the biggest slab of prime rib you’ve got- and RARE!” We’re talking about . . . → Read More: Taming the beast

For the first time in my entire life I have become (somewhat) interested in baseball. I actually watched the majority of the World Series and the games leading up to it. Some of them I even watched on my own! FREAKY, I know! I hardly even recognize myself. A couple of years ago we . . . → Read More: Take me out to the ballgame

Men are so weird.
I grew up in a family with all sisters, no brothers, so I don’t think I really got the full idea of how guys are. Sure, my dad lived there, but he was my dad. Needless to say, getting married was a pretty big eye opener for me. And I’ve . . . → Read More: Like clockwork
