There are a couple of ‘big’ topics I’ve been wanting to talk about here, but I always shy away from them. I either get weird about having those thoughts out there on the internet, or shy away because I’m not a strong writer and I don’t always communicate in a straight, easy-to-read path, so months […]
I try (I really do!) not to go more than a week without blogging. One week on, one week off, has been the regular schedule around these parts. But here it is, two plus weeks later (almost three!), and there is nary a blog post in sight. I’ve been busy, friends! I was given another […]
Still playing a bit of catch up here – hope you don’t mind. I wanted to share some pictures and notes from our excursion to the Art Institute the other night, and the incredible dinner we made. There were a few paintings I wanted to see (Hopper, Singer Sargent), but other than that my plan […]
The past couple of weeks Ben and I have have had weekend excursions, and last weekend we had the extreme pleasure of going up to his parents house in the suburbs and meeting their new cat, Phina (!!!!). : ) Friends, meet Phina: She is SUCH a great cat, and so funny (and so pretty!). […]
Remember last week when I talked about sending friends some Valentines? Well, my original goal was to send “Heart Attack” boxes, but, as I quickly realized, that would have meant cutting a LOT of paper hearts. As I said, I’m not much of a crafter, so when my hand started cramping around my 8th paper […]
Happy, happy Valentine’s Day, dear friends! I had grandiose plans to make really clever and heart-felt and cute valentines for my friends this year, but, it turns out, I’m not really a crafter. Ha! I did make a few Valentine’s, but seeing as how I don’t think my little gifts will arrive to my […]
January marked the start of Audition Season for me, so I’ve been busy busy preparing for all of the different auditions and competitions that happen between January and February. This year I had three big auditions and one great singing opportunity. Now, four things may not seem like a lot, but when you consider the […]
This weekend marked the 8-month mark since my last haircut, which was high time to get this beast of hair trimmed and shaped (it needed a lot of work). As you can see, I’ve been growing it out for quite some time, but it was getting a bit ridiculous (no shape, so many split ends, […]
The upside to a Super Bowl power outage? Time for blogging! The past two weeks have been crazy busy (work, exploring, auditions, etc, I’ll tell you all about it), so I’m finally catching up on documenting all of that here. What, you thought I’d leave you with my list of goals and that was that? […]
Almost 6 months later I’m finally getting around to posting Hannah’s wedding. Forgive me, friend! Without further adieu, allow me to share with you the beauty that was September 1, 2012: Okay, well it really starts a few day before there wedding. I was lucky enough (due to selling my own wedding dress) to be […]
