Things the Burgler Took/Didn’t Take.

To help us cope with the aftermath of insecurities since being burgled (at least they gave us a funny word to use!), Jake and I have created a little game called “Things the burglar took/didn’t take”. Basically we don’t look for anything anymore. If it isn’t in our vision the second we need it, it [...]

Mid-week

This week has been slightly mad. I have had tons of appointments and business all week (like every week) and I am counting down the hours until my weekend. Which will also be very busy but enjoyable busy. Not head-spin busy. Two updates. I moved the car this morning and I survived! I also only [...]

My new jacket! hooray!

Guys! I got a new jacket! Cool right? I love new jackets. Isn’t that really special and interesting? Remember last year when I got that navy blue dress with white polka dots from the Alexa Chung for Madwell line? She just came out with another collection, and I got this jacket! It’s the only thing [...]

Wiped out again.

This is a writing post. I wish I had pictures but I don’t. We’re a little sad in the Yellow Unit. I spent a lot of my weekend trying not to cry. Piper’s new room is smaller and more crowded, and there is no nurse station in there. Since it’s smaller, we have to get [...]

Pip loves her new bed.

First up, Piper’s new bed is called a Soma Bed. I hope those of you who asked are able to find one easily! Piper Jane loves her bed. Thanks to Jake being so tall, and Pippy always wanting to sit on his shoulders, she has figured out that she wants to sit on top of [...]

Tea and Sympathy.

Despite how hard everything is right now, I’m a pretty lucky girl. It’s hard and embarrassing to admit that things aren’t always going the way you want (or rarely!) and that you’ve got worries, stresses and insecurities building up and preventing you from going where you want in life. I worry about writing too openly, [...]

Back from paradise.

I wound up going to Palm Springs alone. In the beginning I was bummed, but it ended up being a totally relaxing weekend and I was able to devote lots of my weekend to catching up with Terrah while Jake stayed home taking lots of pictures of cool events and hanging out with Pippy. He [...]

I want a dog.

This morning I took Bear back to his home. Becca got back into town late last night, so this morning, I took him on one last walk with Nikki and Jen. Now I’m sitting here in my office (we turned our guest bedroom into an office for me! fance-yyyy!) and I got totally used to [...]

My current favorites.

TV Shows. Big Brother. All though Big Brother is a normal favorite, not just a current. (I want to talk about this in its own post.) Breaking Bad Radio Shows. This American Life. I download and listen to the archives every day on the subway or when I run. The stories are so interesting and [...]

Some pictures from this week.

I found another pipture from the weekend! Too bad she’s glued to her bird movie (as usual). Jake and I LOVE Five Guys. Their veggie sandwiches are the perfect meatless burger option. Plus their spicy fries are the best I’ve ever had. Here are the wigs that I worked so much on. I didn’t do [...]
