I love my dog. I really do, but sometimes he’s a little weirdo. You can see more pictures from my 52 Week Project here. Follow Living Outside the Stacks on Bloglovin’!
Week 9: My Everyday
This certainly isn’t my every day, but it is a big honor for me. I’m a new contributor to Teaching United States History, a blog for and about teaching American history survey courses. American history was my favorite subject throughout high school and college. But I was an odd duck. I liked the stories behind the…

Week 7: Yellow
My Thursdays are crazy hectic. I wake up at 5:45 am to get ready for my 8 am class. Yeah, seriously. And I still barely make it on time. I know. Right after class, I head home to grab a bite to eat, let Squeekerz out, and caffeinate. Then I mentally prepare myself for the…
Week 6: My Funny Valentine
The year was 1994, and I was a sweet, innocent little soldier stationed at Fort Polk, Louisiana, about to celebrate my 2nd year in the Army. This is my story, I can tell it any way that I like, just rest assured that what I’m telling you is the whole truth. Anyway, I was sitting…

Week 4: Hobby
It seems almost wrong to write “My hobby is photography.” I’m inconsistent. I don’t pick up my camera nearly as much as I should. Sometimes the images are disjointed. Much of the time the focus is off. I’m not a writer. I don’t have a way with words. I don’t live or die by the pen. Or…
Week 3: My Favorite
Rain against the window… Cozy sweater tights and ankle boots… Freshly brewed coffee. I’m participating in a 52 Week Project with Lashawn from Everyday Eyecandy. If you’d like to join or follow along on Instagram, use the hashtag #eyecandyproject52. Follow Living Outside the Stacks on Bloglovin’!
Week 2: Happiness is…
I tend to be very critical of my photography. In my head I have this image that I want to create. This scene I want to set. This mood I want to capture. And it never seems to materialize. I know that some of it is that I don’t have the skill to create what…
Week 1: Who Am I?
At almost 43, I’m still trying to figure it out. There are times when I feel like a teenager, dipping a toe into the warm waters of adulthood. Then there are times when I feel like an old hand at this grown~up thing, jumping head first into the deep end. I’m playful and mischievous. Quick to…
