Tuesday thoughts

Ok, so I had grand plans of sitting down and actually writing a decent post – you know, one with actual content and quality pictures. I have a great pumpkin smoothie to share… But then I got side tracked trying to transfer files from my old PC to my new Mac. My mom needs aContinue Reading

I could never be a housewife

I’m off work this week and had grand plans to accomplish a bunch of things I never got to this summer – cleaning closets, organizing the gym etc. And today, I had a rather large list of things I was hoping to check off. And yet somehow it’s 2:17 and nearly none of those haveContinue Reading

Technology problems & Strawberry salads

It has taken me all night to download photos off my camera.  I’m annoyed, frustrated and exhausted.  I now have lion on my mac instead of whatever was there before and somehow the Cannon software I’ve always used to import my photos isn’t compatible.  And no matter how much google research I do, I can’tContinue Reading

This heat is too much…too much

Look closely at this picture.  Notice anything strange? Ooooh, right.  Portland is never supposed to be 108 degrees.  Ever.  Now granted my car was sitting directly in the sun so it wasn’t quite that hot but when I get into the car and can’t touch anything – the seats, the steering wheel, my sunglasses…I kindContinue Reading

Be Inspiring

Apologies for the lo-res image quality and the fact that I can’t figure out the original source but I had to share this. Jillian Michaels shared this on her Facebook wall yesterday and I fell in love with it. Such a great message!! This has been going through my head all day. I think myContinue Reading

What time do you eat dinner? + great new dinner ideas

So Chris and I were driving home at around 5:45 and I asked him what time he would like to have dinner…and he told me 8.  Which is what led me to this post and made me realize I wanted to see what life is like at other people’s houses. I love my husband veryContinue Reading

Is a sweet tooth genetic?

I feel like I’ve had that exact same title in a post before…Anyway, I think they are.  I am a sugar bug just like my dad who is a sugar bug just like my grandpa.  My sister is a sugar bug just like all of us but my brother tends to crave salt which isContinue Reading

Biking while reading

This is what happens when you read too long in the sun on your iphone/ipad.  See, I’d planned to spend my day off reading in the sun which meant I needed to have an actual book not my ipad.  But going to the book store seemed like so much work especially when the next installmentContinue Reading

Horrible Shoes

If my feet could talk they would be screaming obscenities at me for what I just put them through.  A 30 minute round-trip walk of pain.  I was walking back from a meeting and just about the time I took this picture I was seriously considering taking them off and walking the rest of theContinue Reading

Reading Books

When I went to bed last night I told myself I would be out the door and on a run by 8 and then I would work in the yard and clean the house.  But when I woke up this morning I decided it would be ok to read one chapter of The Hunger Games. Continue Reading
