I’m a pretty weak blogger as bloggers who blog consistently go. In other words, hi. I’m back maybe? I’ve been trying to get on a more systematic blogging schedule, but it’s only sort of working. Don’t get me wrong, I love writing and blogging. But sometimes it gets put on the back burner, which is […]
I’ve been seeing some really pretty fabric cork boards all over Pinterest and I’m totally in love with them. I bought this beautiful blue fabric at Joann’s the other day, and I thought this would be the perfect use for it. This post is simply a step by step of how I made mine (I […]
Hey there. I know I haven’t updated in a while. Business and laziness don’t mix well, and I’m very good at both of those things. Who would have thought! I keep seeing advertisements and quotes on Pinterest that are all about making New Year’s Resolutions and recreating yourself, which is all fine and well if […]
It’s a funny thing how your perspective on freedom changes as you get older. I remember when I was about 14 or 15, my friends would complain that they didn’t have their permit or their license yet (most of my friends were a year or two older than me) and how they wanted to get […]
Goals. Everyone has them it seems me except me. Mine list of goals usually looks like this: 1) Survive this week. 2) See #1) then repeat. I’ve decided that I need better ones that those and I need to post them here so that the mysterious ocean that is the internet can hold me responsible […]
Here I go. *deep breath* I’m writing a tutorial. You’re probably thinking that the internet already has too many tutorials. However, I am of the opinion that there are NEVER enough tutorials :) So deal. Please? I found the letters for the project a couple of months ago at an antique store in my neighborhood. […]
It’s official: I’ve survived the first three weeks of college. Audience says, “But Marie, we didn’t know you were even in college, let alone graduated from highschool.” Whoops, silly me! Yes, I was homeschooled all my school-age life and I’m now at the University of Awesome, getting my degree in Flipping Fantastic with a concentration […]
This past Saturday I was able to participate in the Color Run in my city and it was so much fun! If you don’t know what the Color Run is allow me to inform you. “It’s the happiest 5K on the planet.” This is the tagline you see everywhere for the Color Run. I know […]
A little bit ago, Tia tagged me in one of those tagging post things. I haven’t done it yet, mostly because I’m a lazy kind of blogger and I couldn’t think of anything interesting to say. I mean, seriously, 11 random facts about myself? I don’t know. I can be pretty boring…I guess you’ll have […]
I’m not sure why it is, but I’m often approached/waved at by very creepy people. Last Sunday at work (I’m a hostess/busser at a restaurant) I had a family come in consisting of a grandmother, a middle aged mom, and her two grown sons. After I seated them at their table and went to seat […]
