Chipping Away at That List

I stopped at Target on my way home last night to do the dreaded task: swimsuit shopping. All I've got right now is my old maternity suit that (thank god) no longer fits. So I had to get a new one and quick because we had plans. Is there any woman on the planet that [...]

Treadputer?

It’s made of PVC pipe [...]

Say ‘Ello to My Leetle Friend

By jesser | Published: 2:54 pm

So I made a little purchase yesterday. It’s called a Silhouette and it’s a die-cut machine, similar to a Cricut, or, apparently, as I now know, about 10 other machines (who knew die-cutting machines was a growth industry??). But with this baby, you hook it up to your computer and print your own designs (my [...]

Race Recap: Apex Father’s Day 5K

By jesser | Published: 7:30 am

I really like races (maybe that’s obvious by now). I have to show up (usually early in the morning, which suits me) and run a set distance. I like the adrenaline boost. I like the t’shirts. I like the long-term goal. And on and on. Luckily Matt likes them too and we enjoy running them [...]

Digging, Watching, Reading

By jesser | Published: 6:33 am

Digging Check out this super-cute mug I got at CostPlus! It looks like a take-away, but it’s really stoneware and the lid/cozy are rubbery like a cellphone cover (kind of like this one, but I didn’t have to buy two). It is perfect for my morning cup (or two) of mint green tea. I saw [...]
