I had a piece of furniture in my family room that was supposed to go to my Mom’s house (for 6 years) well my Dad had his trailer out from racing (he likes to take his corvette racing…that way he can have his fancy racing tires on). So Nick, Grandpa, and Daddy moved the very [...]
I found this beautiful fabric on sale at Calico Corners and I am going to (or get my Mom to do it once I have a baby) make some small curtains for the family room. I spend so so so much time in that room and it really bothers me that it is not decorated [...]

I am plump, somehow this is a surprise to me. Before I got pregnant I weighed 120 pounds (I am almost 5′6”, I am not heavily muscled and I have a small frame) I probably could have lost 5 pounds and looked a bit better (I had a pinch around my middle). Well I [...]
