It’s Easter weekend, a fact I keep forgetting when I try to invite people over for dinner/brunch/other activity that is not Easter related. I easily can blame this on the fact that I do not celebrate Easter or that I have no concept of what date it is but I still get weird looks from [...]
You know all those freak outs I’ve been having? Oh, yes, you know the ones. It seems all I’ve been doing lately is freaking out. Well…I’m letting them go. Sometimes I have a hard time with that concept of letting go. Specifically: letting go of control. I tend to want to control every little detail [...]
Over the past couple weeks my nomadic urges were coming on strong. There were a couple days where I was ready to pack everything up into my little Rav-4 and just go. Some of the time I had no destination even in mind, just me, the horizon and a stretch of pavement. But the majority [...]

I have been meaning to blog nearly every day but life and my creativity being poured elsewhere have deterred me. I still have to blog about my detox but today, I thought I’d share a little DIY project I finished over the weekend! I’ve been feeling the creative bug a little bit stronger lately and [...]
Back in December, while sitting at home in my parents house, I made the vow that I would find a new job by February 1st. I was having a good month at work and had an even better month in January but it had been a year and a half and I was going in [...]

A little before 2012 started, I joined a group of bloggers in tackling 12 Changes, 12 Months: small, manageable goals that we tackle one month at a time.
