I know that I have discussed here about my never ending dying love for looking at houses online. I live in a home that was built in 1895. 1895! It is a lovely home, and for someone with time and interest, a total fixer upper into amazing-ville. It’s got warts though darling, things I won’t [...]
The Talking Heads have a song about Heaven being a place where nothing, nothing ever happens. While that sounds appealing, I just wish that I would remember not to take on so many projects at once. While nothing ever happening sounds boring, just one thing happening sounds lovely. Right now we are living in a [...]
It’s called pack-ratitis. It is in no way related to ret-packitis which is a love for all things Deano & Frankie. No, this is a sick sick sickness that lead me to hold onto everything that my hot lottle hands have ever caressed. Including and not limited to: Furniture, films, books, clothes, tchotchkes, and rugs. [...]

Well, in the time since I have last written, I have been to Ikea twice, and Home Depot, uh, a lot. Nothing warms your heart like a two year old getting excited to go to Home Depot. Any time in the last three days we have seen any thing orange colored out in the world, [...]
Sorry I have been absent as of late. I have been glued to my Ikea catalog and their website. When I haven’t been measuring and drawing, I’ve been on flickr looking at house p0rn. To say I am obsessed might be an understatement. Have no fear, friends, I am just nesting! You have to read [...]
Organization! Today while Sadie was napping, I probably should have been too, instead I was staring at the wall. At first it was just for like, staring into space, letting my eyes cross, drooling, in a eh – duh, kind of way. After a little while (who am I kidding? It was a long while. [...]
