I am super-duper sure I am not the only child who lived through the seventies with some form of cinder block home decor element. I distinctly remember that we had bookcases constructed from cinder bricks that were painted gold. Yes, metallic gold spray paint. Looking back, I really should ask my parents whose suave idea [...]
I cannot lie. I love to shop. Not like ‘spend loads of cash shopping,’ but shop. Check stuff out, compare products, feel the fabric, turn it over, kick the tires… What I’m not really fond of is frequently returning or replacing items. So I frequently ‘shop‘ my own house or upcycle from a local thrift [...]
Inherit the Earth was something that my chapter didn’t focus much on. Sure, we helped during Campus Clean Up Day, but we never really did an event with the seniors that focused on them and the Earth. Taking care of the Earth should be something that we all do. Plant trees, pick up trash, create a [...]
I love reading novels on the iPad but, I will never be able to rid myself of physical books. There’s my beaten up Little House on the Prairie series that was given to me by my late grandparents. My thrift store deal of a 1971 first edition of the USLTA Offical Encyclopdia of Tennis. The [...]
Feng shui is the ancient art of managing the flow of energy through a space. The Chinese have been practicing feng shui for millennia, and it’s quite nuanced. But even for those of us who aren’t well versed in the particulars of feng shui, here are 10 easy things you can do around your home [...]
Do you have a stack of kids’ artwork that you don’t have the heart to throw away, but yet don’t know what to do with it? Me, too. Refrigerators only have so much surface area. I have an ever growing stack next to my scanner. I’m great at scanning it in [...]
As a child of the ’80s and a Sigma Kappa, I have a soft spot for hearts. I’ve written about them before. I even crafted a present for a sister from heart-shaped maps. Sadly, heart art can easily slip into Cheeseville. And we wouldn’t want our dear symbol residing there, would we? So [...]
I have always been a very organized person – maybe even a bit compulsive. I thought everyone was like that. Then I realized I’m a little more organized than others. But I just recently realized I have always been this way.
The light bulb clicked when I was tucking my son into bed and without [...]
Mommy was way more excited than the children. “We are going to The White House Christmas tour,” I announced. We had finally received the email stating we were cleared to visit The White House. I still have visions as a teenager standing on the sidewalk in the cold, rainy, cherry-blossom-scented air one [...]
January’s theme is New Beginnings, and there are many of those going on in my personal and professional life at the moment. My father’s battle with diabetes is a glaring reminder that my own health needs to be a higher priority. I left a job where I was miserable, and [...]
