Life As We Know It: March 2013
http://scottandbarbmn.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Life As We Know It. Thursday, March 21, 2013. A sad, little desk and an ugly chair met in my workshop. Maggie named the desk "Rosalina." I named the chair "Phoebe.". They became fast friends. And decided to get a makeover together. Rosalina is a little more girly than Phoebe. She got new jewelry and a shiny glass top. Phoebe just sits there and makes a statement. Somehow, it just all works together. BFFs MFEO. (Best Friends Forever, Made For Each Other.) FOR SALE - CCS Auction, April 13. :). This was Lea...

Life As We Know It: The Evolution of a Room
http://scottandbarbmn.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-evolution-of-room.html
Life As We Know It. Wednesday, July 17, 2013. The Evolution of a Room. Anyway, he thought I was insane, because everything in my house was oak. So I caved. Take my advice. Don't cave. Hold your ground. This is how things looked many moons ago. We don't even have that furniture anymore. Anyway, I painted the walls AND the ceiling yellow. Emphasis on the YELL. It kind of smacked you in the face every time you walked in the room. And that room has extremely high vaulted ceilings. September 5, 2013 at 6:42 PM.

Life As We Know It. Tuesday, June 11, 2013. A Walk With Maggie. Mags and I decided to take a walk the other day and brought the camera along. We love our country setting and thought we'd share it with you. We started with a little sitting on the porch, to gear up for the walk. It's a delightful place to sit. Some neighbors stopped by yesterday and sat a spell with Maggie and I - they also commented about what a delightful place it was. Maggie would like to keep a couple of horses in it. For now, we'l...

Life As We Know It: November 2012
http://scottandbarbmn.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Life As We Know It. Sunday, November 4, 2012. I love decorating for the seasons, but it can get spendy. (Yes, Mom, I said it. Spendy.) I love bittersweet (the orange berries) but I am not paying ten bucks for a small bunch. I love it. Free for fall. That's my new motto. Thursday, November 1, 2012. Halloween is Too Baby. Especially when you both get to be cats. Meow. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Halloween is Too Baby. The Little Boy and the Nudie Gorilla. Rookfest Loser statues. 2010 Losers: Bob and Dan.

Life As We Know It. Friday, July 27, 2012. Camp is over - Mags had a fabulous time at horse camp. She was clean, hair brushed and her suitcase was packed neatly to come home. Jake had a fabulous time at camp as well. He was filthy (did not shower once), had all of his belongings in a garbage bag (including his empty suitcase) and was wearing his pajama shorts. Sounds about right. :). Saturday, July 21, 2012. Off to Camp We Go. Can't wait to hear all the stories when they get home! Thursday, July 5, 2012.

Life As We Know It. Saturday, March 31, 2012. Beauty and The Beast. Jake and Maggie recently participated in a community ed play - 1 week of practice and then the performance! It was a (more than slightly) modified version of Beauty and the Beast. Maggie was a gypsy. Jake was a gargoyle. And everyone lived happily ever after. Thursday, March 29, 2012. There's a hole in my wall, dear Liza, dear Liza. My little sneak peek? It's for my bathroom. Yippee! This is what it used to look like. The plumber capped ...

Life As We Know It: April 2013

Life As We Know It. Wednesday, April 10, 2013. It will all get picked up on Friday; the CCS auction will be Saturday, and then life can resume as normal. Scott is currently in India on a mission trip - having the time of his life. It's been so fun to get his emails and hear about the things he is doing and seeing. We are all counting the days until he gets home. Can I hear an "Amen? A few other highlights of my week:. Shattered the glass from the 30x40" picture all over my dining room table; and then sha...

Life As We Know It: May 2013
http://scottandbarbmn.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Life As We Know It. Monday, May 27, 2013. So, I have finally figured out what I like. I think. A few years ago, I jumped on the "everything should be light" bandwagon. After making fun of my mother for years when she would paint all of her walls white or off-white. Sorry, Mom. Saturday, May 25, 2013. Let there be light. When we converted our living room into a formal dining room, it looked funny that there was no light hanging above the table. So we faked it with lanterns and remote-control candles&#...

Life As We Know It: February 2012
http://scottandbarbmn.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Life As We Know It. Tuesday, February 28, 2012. I have a good-sized kitchen. Plenty of counter space, an area for a table, and lots of cabinet space. I even have some empty cabinets. Gasp! A nice big pantry behind those closet doors. It's been a great kitchen. Every few weeks, I have to take that drawer out and tighten the screws that hold the peninsula in place. It's always a little wobbly. And so there is unfinished, different colored wood where the plates were. So I had to replace all the plates w...

Life As We Know It. Saturday, February 2, 2013. Jake is playing basketball this year. I love my son and his friends very much, but to say they're good at basketball might be stretching it a bit. In their defense, this is the first year playing for most of them and they don't get a lot of practice time in. They have also improved like ten-thousand percent since the beginning of the year. They hung in there and didn't win, but probably played the best basketball they've played all season. Totally worth...
