Next House Project

Friday, October 27th, 2006

Well, I guess the next project I need to finish is the Master Bathroom.  It’s horrible and I can’t motivate myself to get back to work on it.  My friend, Rebecca and I peeled  most of the wallpaper last year shortly after we moved in.  (You can see a little of that plaid stuff still [...]

“The Family That Crafts Together”

Tuesday, October 24th, 2006

Elizabeth and I love to do all kinds of crafty things together, so last night was nothing unusual for us.  What was different was that Jonathan joined us in making catnip kitty toys.  And I could tell he really enjoyed it, though he probably won't admit it.  Anyway, it was so much fun that I [...]

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

If you've spent much time around me, you know I am fascinated by bugs!  And spiders too!  Well, it's the time of year I like to call "tarantulas cross the road" time.  If you go out driving on country roads, you just may see a tarantula crossing the road!  You may even get to see [...]
