J and I actually left NJ on Saturday around 11:30 AM and arrived in Omaha at 1:45 AM on Monday. Our 8-hour drive to Cleveland on Saturday was mostly uneventful — except for the periods of heavy downpour that made it nearly impossible to see the cars ahead of us on I-80. Though boring, I… Continue reading 2007 May | SIMA

I love to shop, and I love to receive gifts, so I didn’t anticipate how hard creating a registry would be. J and I spent nearly every night this past week browsing different online retailers getting ideas of what types of things we could get away asking for. We decided that this weekend we would… Continue reading 2007 April | SIMA

It was this Giclee print by LexyArt that inspired my blog’s new color scheme, and I just ordered it to hang in my office. I’m slowly starting to collect prints and photographs, mostly from Etsy, to create an eclectic wall of framed art. Hopefully I’ll be able to show you some “After” photos soon!

Last Friday night we got a couple of inches of snow–much to the delight of Briscoe, who loved playing in it the next day. Briscoe sure does love snow. And that’s a good thing because we might get 6 inches of the white stuff. Inspired by a recent Craftstylish post on dog toys made out… Continue reading My Dog | SIMA

Because I’m a sucker for a great card, I enjoyed Holly Becker’s article on Simply Stated today, How to Be a Card Sender. In the last year or so I’ve been trying to remember to mail cards to my family and friends for special occasions like birthdays and holidays, and when J’s away, I send… Continue reading corresponding via snail mail | SIMA
