There were so many great photos this week that these five are just scratching the surface. Spend a little time on Flickr looking at the lovely colors of fall. Or [...]
Okay, so I never got around to taking a nap, but since I am not above going to bed at 8pm, I feel “caught up”. Fueled by Starbucks, I managed to slog through yesterday’s routine.The high point was the UPS man delivering the book pictured above. Fact: I am obsessed with picture books. Always have [...]
I am taking the day off. (We were in the ER from 1-3 am. End result? Our son does not have appendicitis ….)See you tomorrow!

Again.For you Chicagoans with free time this weekend, Greer is having a Russell + Hazel trunk show on [...]
Thank you, Louise! Your sperm whale watercolor arrived this week in the mail, safe and sound. I plan to take it to the framer asap. Hopefully, we will come up with something simple and elegant to prepare it for my staircase wall (you know, my envisioned staircase with art framed in black). I couldn’t be [...]
