Damn. We really know how to pack a weekend. I am absolutely exhausted!! Today Matt and I ran the Bolder Boulder. It’s a VERY big (3rd largest timed race in the world) very fun race. We hopped on a RTD bus this morning at around 6 AM and rode into Boulder. We had just enough [...]
• I'm thinking about running the Bolder Boulder on Monday. I hesitate only because it's something of a mob scene, and also the $63 entry fee – not so bad on its own, but they just add up, especially with two of us running! But I wouldn't bother with the cheaper one. The tech T [...]
Digging Have you guys seen Groupon yet? I think I'm the last one at that party, but just in case. It's a social deals site where local businesses offer goods and services at a DEEP discount. Today for Denver, they had three portrait sessions and prints for 87% off. They didn't give high-res originals, though, [...]
So our resident BOY had quite a night last night. We were getting his room cleaned up and his laundry put away when he tripped over Matt’s foot and took a little tumble. No crash, no fireworks, just a few tears. There weren’t many sound effects and he wasn’t even terribly loud with his crying. [...]

But since Tabby had an official birthday party here, we thought we’d do one for Ben too. Owing to this that and the other thing, we had to [...]

Welcome to our basement. My name’s Jess and I’ll be your tour guide. This remodel project was undertaken with a few goals in mind, #1 to make a new office space for Matt – he had been displaced when Ben moved from the pack and play to his crib to a small area off our [...]
Matt had a stated goal that six months after our contractor finished (around Jan 15) that he wanted to have all of the follow-up projects done. It’s a seemingly easy task, but really a lot of work!! The #1 thing we needed to do was get our storage situation taken care of – our garage [...]
So I got to thinking that we’ve been doing lots of this and that around the house and I have not been updating you on it. In fact, I still owe you, my readers, some photos of our finished basement. I was waiting on the finishing touches, some of which have happened, some of which [...]
My name is Jess. I'm a 30ish wife and working mommy. I love spending time with my family and friends, crafting up weird and beautiful things, cooking delicious food and running lots of miles to work it off. I love chocolate, wine, Photoshop, my Nikon and sleeping in. I do freelance design work for fun and marginal profit at JKN Designs. This is my blog. Read more »
