{designing a healthy, balanced & beautiful life}
Well, there you have it. It’s Monday & the end of the month. That fleeew by! Also, my weekend flew by. The upside is we have a short week, so even though it’s Monday… it’s kind of like Wednesday. Which still is kind of blah. We’ve made it through the first month of a new… read more »
If you were here earlier in the week, then you’ll remember the cant’s, can’s, dreams & plans post in which I talked about getting more organized, creating lists {like, actual lists, not just post-it’s scattered about my desk}, setting goals and having a way to measure them. This morning, I’m building upon that momentum and… read more »
Thank you to TurboTax for sponsoring my writing about household finances. Learn more about how TurboTax can help you find every tax deduction you deserve. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do. Sigh. First, I just want you to prepare yourself before we… read more »
I’ve been running a fever since Saturday night, which means… I’ve accomplished absolutely nothing over the past few days. Well, except for enormous amounts of sleep. Sometimes I think that I actually do hibernate. Anyway, today I decided to take a sick day. I slept in, stayed home and didn’t get out of my pajamas… read more »
So, I’ve decided that instead of posting my Photo 365 on the blog daily, I’m just going to do a round up post of all of the photos of that week every Saturday. However, photos will still be added daily to my Photo 365 set on Flickr, if you’d prefer to follow along there. :)… read more »
You guys, I’m finally learning the ropes to this housewife thing! It’s taken a couple of years, but, get this… I made cookies AND they’re edible! When I announced on twitter & facebook that I felt like making cookies, many of you laughed and kindly reminded me that I once broke the cookies. Many of… read more »
It’s no secret that I’m turning in to a huge photo geek. Seriously, I simply can’t get enough of photography blogs! I’m clicking & snapping all over the place – my poor cats now think that the camera is a new growth from mommy’s head and my husband said that I should consider just getting… read more »
It’s not often that you’ll find me in a chain restaurant. Mostly because… they usually disgust me {I’ve had a server to smell my drink, people! Ugh!} Also, I just love supporting locally owned eateries and Charlotte has tons of them. On the flip side, there are a few chains that are just plain yum.… read more »
Good morning, loves. It’s a sad, sad day here at the Designer dining table. I ran out of ‘bou. Yup. Came down stairs and just absolutely could not wait to take that first sip of morning brew, only to stick my hand in the box and find nothing. Complete emptiness. :: sinking heart :: We… read more »
Kant said that we require three things by which to measure happiness: someone to love, something we like to do, and something to look forward to. Did you know that I almost majored in Philosophy? That was after I switched from biomedical sciences and before I decided to persue print & online media. My… read more »
