Works for Me Wednesday – Window Cleaning
I’m excited to be participating in WFMW…I’ve been reading everyone else’s tips for a while but never felt I had anything to contribute. Until last week. OMG Y’all, (sorry, DH informs me that as a native Michigander, I can’t say that). Anyway, I found a FAB way to clean my windows. DD has been wanting […] Read more…

No-S Diet Status
SUCCESS! I had to get out my huge dinner sized plates at dinner to do the no seconds part, but I guess that’s normal in the beginning and I did eat enough to get from meal to meal so I’m just thrilled about that. Especially since I was HOME all day. Boredom = food! Read more…

Spring Cleaning – Day 7/8
I suppose her room wasn’t as bad as I originally thought. DD was sick today or I probably could have finished it. Well, maybe it was. I just looked at the before pics again. YIKES! BEFORE: I had massive, unorganized stacks of outgrown clothes that needed to be packed away and labeled. There were also […] Read more…
Book Review – Practicing Hospitality
I read about this in another blog (don’t remember which one, but her name was Ashley, I think) and decided it was a book that I really needed to read. My lovely husband is much more hospitable and social than I am. I love to entertain small groups of friends, but I continually struggle with […] Read more…
