On this lovely overcast Sunday morning both W and I are sick.  I have been fighting this since Tuesday, and W just started feeling poorly yesterday.  So, naturally, we are lying low today and resting on this 3 day weekend. While I was lying on the couch watching an NCIS marathon ( the best ) I was looking through my Bloglovin' app and catching up on the blogs that I follow when it occurred to me - I need to post something new on my blog!  Then I looked, and wowie - I haven't update my blog since April! ( but let's be honest...am I the only one that reads this? ) We have had a lot  going on, and to tell you the truth, I honestly haven't even thought about my blog.  Let me clue you in.  In May, we bought our first house, went to Hawaii for our 5 year wedding anniversary, and and soon as we got back started renovations on our house.  Every second that I'm not at work I am painting, cleaning, or at Lowe's - I am sleeping.  This is an exhaustin...

Hello again, Friday!  This week has been particularly long, so I'm glad you've come.  Let's hurry it up to 5:00, please!  Dad just about to walk me down the aisle.

Dear Mom (pic below):   I didn't write a letter near Mother's Day...my bad!  You are the best, too!  Happy belated Mother's Day - let's wear our matching tunics soon, k? (jk) Mom and Me on our wedding day. D ear (Low)Back:   You've had a herniated disc or 2 since you were 15 and you've been behaving recently.  Were you bored?  Why did you throw yourself out and pinch my nerve last weekend?  I'm still recovering .  Enough, already. Dear Summer Break :  I remember when I first realized that my dad didn't get you....
