Monday’s Nap
Yesterday was a Monday. Typical Monday. When I rolled out of bed, my body felt like it had been a punching bag all night long. I felt sore and tired and I desperately wanted to crawl back into my warm cocoon and block out reality. Of course I didn’t. But I considered it for longer [...]
It Ain’t Always Rosy…
I didn’t forget about posting over the weekend. I was just busy. And tired. And busy… Did I say busy? Anyhoo, back to the weekly grind. It is Monday and the day is flying by at a pace much faster than I had anticipated. I suppose that’s a good thing, but I am not getting [...]
Balance
So yesterday, I finally went to the movies to see Eat, Pray, Love. I went by myself. Sometimes people shudder to think of doing things by themselves like go to the movies or sit in a restaurant alone, but often times I am good company to myself. I don’t mind this a bit. In fact, [...]

Heart of a Lion
Yesterday afternoon I got a frantic call from my husband, asking what to do for a newborn kitten. I just love how the man with the degrees in Animal Science and the most incredible animal husbandry skills I have ever witnessed, calls little ol’ ME about how to care for a newborn kitten. After deciphering [...]

Cat Nap at 9:00am
It is Friday and I am totally exhausted. Even though I got out of bed only a few hours ago, I am absolutely ready to go back. A nap sounds so great right now, and it’s not even 9am. Go figure. My guess is it’s gonna be a loooooong day. Share2

School Daze…
So today was the first day of school for my sweet little boy. As a student, I was always excited about the first day of school, a little nervous, but over the moon with happiness to go back. I always liked school very much, and thankfully I have passed on this great love of mine [...]
Growing in All Directions…
I have been struggling for months and months about where to go with the blog. Initially, the blog was sort of a working part of Fab Farm Design and I was the lady of the ranch, staying home on the ponderosa if you want to say that… little D wasn’t in school yet, I was [...]
Oprah and Me
No of course this isn’t me, I have not been on the Oprah Show. Wait! Of course, it IS ME! It just isn’t the real Oprah! Have no plans to be on Oprah, and if I was on Oprah, I certainly wouldn’t be carrying my $10 Marshall’s beach bag with me! No, this is me [...]

Cat-Napping Saturday
So by now you’ve realized that you’re reading a post on a new blog layout. I am as shell-shocked as you are, trust me. I do not know exactly how everything is working yet, and there is a lot (a lOT) of stuff that I have yet to learn. Just being able to figure out [...]
This is a Test…

All I Really Need…
I am officially taking the next two days off. I closed my office door today and bid farewell to my computer, promising to return Monday and give it a real good workout. I don’t even know or care about the state I left my office, I was already ‘checked out’ around lunch time, already dreaming [...]
