What a week! Our computer was completely fried (we lost everything), my car is broke and we lost electricity. Fortunately, it’s was a short work week AND the Wayne County building was finally purchased. The beautiful domed structure downtown has been vacant for years and was one of the standout examples of Detroit’s deficiencies. Details … More Happy Friday!
I found this on Tumblr and it’s too pretty not to post. I’m very much looking forward to the weekend. I have two Girls’ Nights lined up. One tonight with Kat and again tomorrow night with Cara, Melissa and Lindsey. Sunday, Danny and I are meeting Chris and Emily for brunch at La Dolce Vita. Afterwards … More Happy Friday
I often read or see on Pinterest facial with food and I’ve always been curious about what it’s like. This weekend the boys had game night and I convinced Lindsey to experiment with me. The recipes/directions were from a Woman’s Day article and we had mixed results. Since I don’t have a regular beauty routine, I’m no … More DIY Facials
As previously mentioned I’m a “recovering” television addict. I use the word lightly because I’ve probably been off the wagon more than on in the last couple years. This weekend it was all about Once Upon A Time and M*A*S*H. The shows are polar opposites and I suppose that’s fitting because most of my interests … More A Happy Medium
We had two sleepovers this weekend. One Friday night with baby Gwen (who’s quickly becoming a toddler). She can climb stairs now and loves it but she must be closely monitored. The other was Saturday night with her parents. We had a blast watching SNL, playing cards and making cocktails. … More Weekend Fun
I discovered Sherlock this past week and it’s wonderful. Also the easiest marathon I’ve ever done with only 9 episodes. Although I spent a good part of my weekend watching the show I’m not addicted to it. It may come but currently I’m in the clear. My biggest attraction to the show is that it … More Sherlock
I did not plan to do anything for my birthday this year. I’m not a big birthday person and since Danny was turning 30 I wanted the focus to be on him. What a fail!!! Although he did get what he asked for Danny didn’t really get anything special for his birthday. I even forgot … More A VERY happy Birthday!
I had a nice busy weekend. Friday: I went to Milford after work to have dinner with Cara. It was a great visit and she made a “vintage” meal. Shrimp Alfredo is our signature dish. She made it for me when I visited her at her apartment (before I moved upstairs) and it introduced … More Weekend Update
I had another busy weekend and did many things; however, it I’m honest I could have accomplished more. Friday: Movie night turned into chat night. I ordered the deep dish pizza I’d been craving and took a nap before Melissa came over. We drank wine and talked weddings, jobs, housing, life in general. I confided … More Weekend Update
Aside from a late night BSG game Friday night we didn’t have any real weekend plans so I decided to collect some kids. Brett and Lindsey wanted to work on their basement and I volunteered to watch the girls Saturday. Since the summer is almost over I thought it would be a good idea to … More Parenting Practice
