I’ve been seriously slacking on the renovation posts, and I got a bit of slack for not posting Jimmy’s fabulous pond project quickly enough, so here we go!
Some of you may remember my Earth Day Post last year, when I spoke about the new planting bed beside the pond.
I am especially proud of this particular...

jimmy’s “green” pond project
we won! we won!
I haven’t won anything in a very, very long time. I won a Samsonite when I was 10 while away for my late grandfather’s business trip for Potash Company of America. I did, for a few nights in a row, win NY’s pick 3 numbers about 15 years ago – don’t know what happened...
it snowed today…
It snowed today. During my “working” lunch break, I had the opportunity to hop outside and take just a couple of shots! Also, if you were by recently for the Holiday Farm House Tour, you’ll now see some new photos of my tree and some additional photos of the foyer as I added...

cell phone shot of the day.
I know, I know. Everyone wants something new, and I have TONS of new stuff – a bathroom reno and a bathroom paint job (yeah, that bathroom). However – work and life these last few weeks has been rather hectic. I’ll tell you, working and having the two children home during...

Beautiful bouquet I picked up today from Dearborn Farms (love that place)!
Aren’t they lovely?
the farm: my office update
Finally! I’ve made some progress on decorating my home office. Still much left to do but I think I’ve come to a point where I can at least post a notice to myself on what needs to change in here.
I’ll post two before images and for those that want to see in better...
