sleep conversations, vol. 2

March 28, 2013

My husband talks in his sleep sometimes when I’m waking him up, and it’s awesome. Here’s a sample of some things he’s said lately. *** On a Saturday when he was going in to work Me: What time do you want me to get you up? Him: Get me up for the gay pride parade. That’s when I need the most help. *** Me: Time to get up, love. Him: You SAID I had 48 hours. *** Him: Did you see that profile? Me: Profile for what? Him: The magazine. Me: You’re doing a profile for a magazine? Him: I thought you were writing one on me. Me: What magazine? Him: Hustler.  *** Me: Time to get up, love. Him:…

project life 2013 : week 9

March 27, 2013

This spread only encompasses a single week instead of my normal two. After I printed out two weeks’ worth of photos and I looked at my list of things I wanted to include I realized that I would have to cut a whole lot out to combine them so I made the decision to split them up even though it will put me even further behind. This is the week of February 25 to March 3. The photos are not placed chronologically at all; I usually try to keep them somewhat in order but this time they fit better all mixed up. So this side has photos of the fabric I bought for my quilt, my daily morning coffee and…

around here // blah

March 25, 2013

I am recovering from the major blahs. Last week started off with pinkeye followed up with a sore throat, neither of which got me out of work. I have also been plagued by recurrent, almost constant sores on my tongue and inside of my mouth for the past six months and last week they were really bothering me and were enough to make me cry. No idea why I am so susceptible to them but I hate it. Plus I’ve been having these random dizzy spells, possibly related to that time of the month although they are a recent development. So for most of last week I had little to no energy above and beyond what I needed to get through the…

what i wore this weekend // sunglasses edition

March 18, 2013

I’ve been meaning to do another outfit post for awhile. The problem is taking the photos, because I don’t have a tripod and my husband is, shall we say, less invested in getting a good picture than I am. However he IS a good sport, so I hope to keep these coming every now and then. shirt: Old Navy // pants: Banana Republic (old) // shoes: Teva // belt: old, who knows? // sunglasses: c/o Firmoo // necklace: heirloom from my grandmother I wore this to church and all day Sunday. It was gorgeous and warm outside and I wanted to be comfortable but not overly casual. These t-shirts from Old Navy are one of my favorite things ever. I have…

project life 2013 : weeks 7 – 8

March 15, 2013

I have another Project Life spread for you today. This is from February 11 to 24 and it’s a little different than the normal. These were hard weeks. I didn’t take many photos and little things happened but the focus here was our trip to South Carolina for my uncle’s memorial service. However the week before that was Valentine’s Day, so I did want to feature that a little bit. I made up this random journaling card which I like but I think the hand stitching was kind of a waste of time. I like the way it looks but it would’ve been fine without it too. I can’t wait to relearn how to work my sewing machine so I…
