Our Current and Future Sleeping Arrangements Vlog!

April 9, 2012

A while back, when I suggested you all ask me a question, a couple of readers asked how we managed six people in a two bedroom house. More specifically, how do we fit myself and all three of my men into one room? Sharing the master bedroom with both my boys and my husband (though [...]

Acorns in my Washing Machine.

April 2, 2012

It’s April. I am not ready for April. I didn’t take into account that it would be April. You see, this past week or so I have been just getting by. I have been hanging on, just trying to make it to the end of term. Just washing enough clothes to get me through until [...]

November 14, 2011

The photo above might not look like much to you, but to me it is full of potential… Potential walls! This ‘build your own house’ gig is a lesson in patience for me. It takes a long time to double the size of your house when you are doing pretty much all of it yourself, [...]

September 26, 2011
