Another busy Friday! Tabby has Field Day today, so I am spending half my day at her school, playing tag and giving out popcicles and the like. Should be fun! On to another round of Friday Faves. Favorite Daydream: check out this awesome attic movie theatre. I think what really appeals to me is the [...]

This is a very cool collection with a few I’ve never seen before. Favorite Craftiness: Look at this great light up constellation! A fun [...]
Man, I barely thought about the blog this week. The new job is kicking my bum just a bit. Very very busy. But good. And I feel like I’m getting it and it will be easier soonish. I hope. Anyhow, I did see a few new cool things this week: Favorite Sweet Thang: Look at [...]
It was a crazy week! Next week is the last week for swim lessons and man I am READY! Some of my faves from this crazy week: Favorite Buy: Season2 of Call the Midwife has started and I bought the two eps that are currently out. I still have yet to watch them, but I [...]

We wanted flexibility and ease and though I love charts, they didn’t seem to quite cut it. I didn’t want to be printing out new charts every week and making changes [...]
I have joined the ranks of iPhone users. Well really, it’s just an i because it hasn’t been activated to mobile phone service. See last week, my company upgraded all of our blackberry users to iPhones. It was a great move for us because our employees (many of whom are away from the office regularly [...]
A week or so ago, a nasty power surge hit our neighborhood and unfortunately, despite the fact that our server (yes, we’re nerds, we know, we have badges) was plugged into a surge protector, it was irreparably damaged. Boo. Aside from the fact that we didn’t want to pay to rebuild it, we didn’t want [...]
Tabby is getting to the point where she needs more to read than just sight words, but finding her books that are age appropriate and worth reading – let’s just say I’m not big on Fairy Princess Barbie books – is pretty darn hard. So when I saw Playdough to Plato’s great idea of making [...]
