I love Christmas. I love the candies and the cookies. I love watching the excitement on my children’s faces as the exciting day approaches. I love the music, the lights, the magical atmosphere that is EVERYwhere. I love the smell of pine and freshly baked Christmas goodies. I love it, I really do. But shopping…
Holiday Shopping – Holiday Shipping
I am a plan-ahead kind of holiday shopper. I make detailed lists and check things off as I purchase them. I know exactly what I’m getting for everyone, and except for those hard-to-find items, holiday shopping is rather fun for me. For the last eight years or so, I’ve been making each member of my…
Need a Last Minute Holiday Gift? Try Yoursphere!
Those of you who, like me, have older children know what a challenge it is to find them worthwhile and affordable gifts for birthdays and holidays. KitKat’s 13th birthday is next week, the day before Christmas, so I have to prepare doubly for her. On her list this year? A cell phone, an iTouch, a…
I Heart Faces-Pets Only!
It’s Pets Week again on i heart faces! I don’t have a pet, so pictures of pets can be hard to come by. Doesn’t it figure, though, that in a week we will be at my in laws’ house, which is filled with cute animals? I’ll stock pile the pet pictures for later. Go see…
The Best Day
This is a little longer than the typical quote I post for Sunday Citar, but I was driving in my van yesterday and stopped to listen to the words to this Taylor Swift song for the first time and found myself crying as I drove down the interstate. The Best Day (click on song title…
Six Words for My Subscribers
Yoohoo, Subscribers! Miss you. Come back! My transition to WordPress has been smooth, for the most part. I love WordPress, and I am happy I made the change. I knew there was a chance I’d lose feedburner readers. I was just sad that I lost 1000 of you. That’s a lot of people. One person…
Santa Really IS Watching…..a Give Me Your Best Shot
My Christmas present came in the mail yesterday. I am itching to test it a little more, but today was filled with Christmas shopping–my first trip out, believe it or not. What came in the mail, you ask? The Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Macro lens. Amazing stuff. I happened on an incredible deal on a used…
Shop {Here} For Anissa
Recently a fellow blogger, Anissa Mayhew, a witty mother of three, collapsed after suffering a massive stroke. You’ve probably heard her story. If not, visit Aiming Low to find out more. I have never met Anissa, but some of my good blogging friends have. I feel a connection to her. She could be me. It…
It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!
Two of my favorite things about the Christmas season (besides the candy) are the lights and the music. On Monday night, we combined those two favorites with a traditional trip to the Washington DC temple for the Festival of Lights and a concert from a great local high school jazz ensemble. We enjoyed a tour…
Lipstick, a Pink Sharpie, and Merry SITSmas!
Merry SITSmas to all of my visiting SITStas today! Before I go any further, let me mention that my site is under transition today from Blogger to WordPress. Very exciting stuff….but I am having slight problems with lost posts and links. So bear with me as I finish up the transition. It will be worth…
