I’m feeling a little down tonight, so this post might not be as detailed as it could be. This last piece I wore for the WIOSI Challenge got mixed reviews even in person–some people (strangers, actually) gave me some nice compliments on it, but other people (who I know better) said that it wasn’t their …
Change It Up Challenge #3 – Food Log
I have learned from sad experience that diets do not work for me. Well, actually they do…for the week or so that I can handle being on them. Then I counter all the good effects it might have had the next week when I go the opposite direction and stuff my face with all the …
WIOSI Challenge, Item #3
The Wear It Or Share It Challenge might be doing the opposite of what I thought it would–instead of making me want to get rid of some of my stuff (finally), it’s reminding me of why I fell in love with or bought certain items in the first place. Take this lace shirt, for instance. …
Book #5 – Fires in the Bathroom
Title: Fires in the Bathroom (aff link) Author: Kathleen Cushman Pages: 190 It’s a good thing I can count books I read for school, because I’m a bit behind on my 50-Book Challenge (but not too much–if I managed to pop out 3 more books by the end of this month, I’d be about right …

Wear It or Share It Challenge!!
For the beginning of 2011, I only set 4 “Big Picture” goals–read the entire New Testament with all the footnotes, do the 50 Book Challenge, get my cholesterol down to healthy range (ha!), and purge my closet. You see, what started happening was this: once I stopped growing, I had a harder and harder time …
Photo Walk – Second Dam
Due to the beautiful weather, Matt and I finally fit in another photo walk. Although Logan is usually frigid land of ice, snow, and sniffly noses, Sunday surprised us with temperatures in the mid-50s and a sunny breeze. We made our way up to Second Dam (which Matt had never seen) to take these pictures …
