    Where Bloggers Live: Travel

    Hey, how are ya? Things are going well I’m my side. I haven’t been up to much… I added some new plant babies to the family {you can see them here, here, and here}. I keep trying, y’all. I’m not good with plants but I love them so much. They remind me of my dad — he kept our house full of plants when we were kids — and I’ve been missing him so much lately. This time around, I’m taking the time to learn about my plants and figure out what they need. I’m following several plant parents on Instagram as well {that’s where I got the idea to…

    Coffee Talk {In the Cafe}

    Hi, and welcome to Coffee Talk. In case you’re new here, this is where I share some of the great and not~so~great stuff that I find on the web. Topics range from news stories that leave me scratchin’ my head to DIYs that I think are absolutely clever. And, who knows, there may even be a recipe thrown in here or there just for fun. So grab a cup of coffee {or tea or whatever floats your boat} and let’s talk… 1. For the first time in 39 years, Al Roker overslept and missed a show. He was a no show for his morning show, Wake Up with Al. Duuuude,…

    The boy got his learner’s permit this week. That’s pretty scary.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought When did I become a grown up? I mean seriously, when did life become about bills, jobs, kids and stuff? What happened to the fun that we thought we’d have as soon as we got out of our parents’ house? Oh, yeah, that’s what lead to the kids and the becoming…

    There’s No Place Like Home

    Oh, Dorothy, truer words have never been spoken… We finally made it home at 9:45 last night.  To read the beginning of this journey, go here, I’ll wait...  Well, no, we made it to Wilkes~Barre, Pennsylvania at 9:45, we didn’t make it to our house until after 10:30.  Yes, a journey that started at 6 AM (3:30 if you count the wake up at the hotel) ended at 10 something last night. So why were we trapped in the black hole of airports also known as O’Hare International?  A weather delay.  Personally, I’m started to think the whole delay in Chicago thing is a conspiracy, it’s a test of patience,…

    Oh the Places We Won’t Go

    If you follow me on Facebook, you know that the hubs and I have been having a heck of a time getting back home to Pennsylvania…  Right now, as I type this, we are stuck in the inner thigh of airports ~ Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport.  I know, right? Look at me blogging from the airport ’cause I’m all I wanna share my adventures in real time with my bloggy friends.  We’ve been in transit since 6 this morning, it’s now 3:56 PM and I’m no closer to getting home than I was when I was curled up on the bed at the hotel.  But before I get to the…
