Yep – we did it again. 🙂 To say this has been a busy couple of weeks would be an understatement. I’ve taken on several new freelance projects, and while I’m really enjoying the work, the days are flying by faster than ever. It hasn’t been all work, though. Last weekend I had the chance […]

Lambeau Leaps
The traditional third wedding anniversary gift is supposed to be leather. Admittedly, Bobby and I had no idea that was the case when we decided a late November trip to Chicago and Green Bay would be our gift to one another this year, but it ended up working out perfectly. Why? Because there is no […]
Sizzling Summer Pinterest Party
It has been a busy summer, to say the least. Bobby and I have been away from home every weekend since June 28. Our travels have taken us to Minnesota, Washington D.C., Chicago and Kansas City. More on the latter in my next post – with said travel comes a bit of a delay in […]
City Christmas-ing
What a (Windy City) weekend! I’m still catching up on sleep after an energy-packed three days in Chicago. The holiday season is one of my favorite times of year to be in the city, and it was fun to take a trip back to visit friends and see my old view decked out in Christmas […]

**Thinking of everyone affected by Sandy on the East coast and hoping you and yours stay safe.** This past weekend, Bobby and I traveled to a very familiar city. It felt good to be back in Chicago! I don’t think enough time has passed for it to feel different. Other than the fact that we drove […]
Chillin’ Like A Villain
Our first week as Arizona residents has proven to be quite an adventure. The desert wildlife has greeted us in some very unexpected ways. Namely: A desert “roof rat” decided that our soy-coated Volkswagen wires (don’t ask me why they coat them in soy) looked delicious enough to chew through overnight. Literally between Tuesday night […]
Making The Most Of Chicago: Part One
Thank you all so much for the wonderful well wishes on our big move! You’re amazing! As you might expect when given six days to sell and pack everything you own, it has been a little crazy over here. I’ve taken up a part-time job as a Craigslist Poster (not an official position, but it […]
The Big Move
Nearly three and a half years since I made a lighthearted prediction, it’s actually coming true. Less than two weeks from now, Bobby and I will be driving seven years of Chicago memories (four years at school in Evanston and three in the working world downtown) across the country. Why? WE ARE MOVING TO ARIZONA!!!!!!! […]
