It goes without saying I’m on the bad blogger list at the moment but I’m a worse Godmother! My calendar has Gwen’s birthday as today and it was yesterday. I feel awful about it! She’s been our practice baby and I could not love her more but apparently remembering her birthday is beyond me. I’m undoubtedly … More Happy Friday & (belated) Birthday Gwenie!
How is it Friday? How is Christmas less than 2 weeks away? Time has completely gotten away from me – as evidenced by my poor blogging of late. It seems I only ever have time to celebrate the big holidays every other year. This year we did Thanksgiving but Christmas…. well at least the decorations are … More Happy Friday
News these days is devastating and hopeless. I’m not too optimistic about the planet at the moment but it does force me to cherish every moment. So no matter what time I have to wake up in the morning, I always hit snooze a half dozen times to cuddle with Danny. This isn’t great for my … More Happy Friday
Week one of a new job and it’s wonderful and overwhelming simultaneously. Overwhelming in a fantastic way – it’s been too long since I was excited about work. Nevertheless, there are moments when I need a bit of a pep talk and yesterday, I broke out the sparkling cherry juice in lieu of wine. So … More Happy Friday!
It’s an end of an era in more ways than one. With speculation that Daniel Craig is done with Bond my interest in the series will probably decline and – equally as pressing – this will probably be our last late night movie outing for a while. To commemorate such a momentous occasion we may even … More Happy Friday
It’s time for another mushy love post, it’s my Wordbird’s birthday and I love him more than words can say. He’s a sweetheart, patient (with the exception of videogames) and kind and make me the best version of myself. I feel lucky every day to be with him. Danny has changed so much in the … More Happy Friday and Happy Birthday Danny!
Following our anniversary (and Valentine’s Day) tradition we went to The Edison at the Dearborn Inn for dinner Tuesday. We were married at the Dearborn Inn and with all honestly it’s probably my favorite place in the world. It’s across the street from Greenfield Village with all the classic charm you want at a fraction … More Happy Friday!
For months I was looking forward to visiting The Flower House – a unique art installation in an abandoned home in Hamtramck. My work-buddy and go to garden guy, Paul, was going to go with me. I very naively put off purchasing tickets and now they are all sold out! I’m beyond disappointed because this … More Happy Friday
What a week! We learned our little baby is a boy. I was admittedly a little shocked by the news – turns out I did have a preference after all. I’m now recovered and very excited. I’ve been shopping up a storm and ordering or picking up anything that doesn’t have a cartoon character and … More Happy Friday!
Unexpected life events, inevitably make you consider how you live. This Emerson quote hits the mark and pretty well summarizes the Roosevelt Standard I strive for. I’ve got some work to do in the useful part – I could benefit from an energy boost – but feel like I’m on the right track in the … More Happy Friday
