ma vie: My DIY Disaster.
http://katiemavie.blogspot.com/2013/07/my-diy-disaster.html
Monday, July 29, 2013. So I saw a cool idea for a homemade chalkboard on a blog and thought it looked easy. A simple transformation of an old, ugly picture and frame! Well, I should’ve remembered the tedious Dresser Makeover that my parents and I did before I moved down to Birmingham (#spraypaintproblems). Anyway, I did not remember this and decided I wanted to make a big chalkboard for my huge white wall. A huge square picture with a decent frame and ugly picture! Perfect for only 15 bucks. I did not wa...

ma vie: 5 reasons you should journal.
http://katiemavie.blogspot.com/2013/08/5-reasons-you-should-journal.html
Tuesday, August 20, 2013. 5 reasons you should journal. My awesome friend Abby made a list of 26 things she learned at age 26. I decided to make a list of something i'm passionate about.journaling! I believe everyone should journal. Just look at Facebook and Twitter! People have so many emotions and thoughts that they are craving to express. Some people express too much on those sites and that is why I want to yell at them "YOU NEED A JOURNAL! 3 It is something for yourself. We do our best writing wh...

Monday, November 4, 2013. No rhythm to this poem, but I still like to call it one. How deep do you go? Do you dive into the depths and dare to swim with the sharks? Do you float on the surface with the other lonely hearts? Where do you search for the answers to life? Is it atop the mountains tall? Beneath the greatest waterfall? Do you see the stream that's strung throughout? Whether the highest high or the lowest doubt. It's intertwined, the web we sew. It's the journey we take, it's the journey we grow.

ma vie: Packing Light
http://katiemavie.blogspot.com/2014/08/packing-light.html
Monday, August 18, 2014. So lately I have had a little obsession. But I would really rather call it a passion. (hey, I'd been looking for that! It's called "packing light". The idea of minimalism. No, not living in a 30 square foot home. But the idea of going through all of your things and getting rid of what you don't need. So anyway, my sister and I fantasized about starting up a professional organizing business one day. Is that such a thing? See for yourself: http:/ www.timetoorganize.com/. The next b...

ma vie: January 2015
http://katiemavie.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 5, 2015. Last year I made a list of all the things that happened in 2013. I like this way of reflecting. Get it all out there quick and simple. Looking at it all together, I'm given a big picture of my year and I can trust my memory will remember the details of each. So here's a recap of my 2014 (in somewhat chronological order):. Scariest tornado warning of my life. Mom and dad visiting Birmingham. Losing my cousin Michael. Visiting St. Louis. Reading my favorite book: Kisses from Katie.

Wednesday, April 24, 2013. My Favorite Memories with Maddie:. Getting the letter in the mail at Girl Scout camp that my parents had gotten Fargo (her name before we renamed her) and asked me if I liked the name Madison (Maddie for short). I remember I wasn't crazy about the name Madison but once I read "Maddie" I loved it! Taking Maddie to doggy training lessons at Graham Arena with my mom. There was an elderly lady next to us training her teacup poodle named Muffin:). No offense mom and dad ;). Giving h...

Wednesday, September 4, 2013. I watched a TED Talk from TEDxTeen (talks directed toward teens) like a month ago and I wrote my notes about it on a piece of paper that has been in my purse getting wrinkly and water on it so now it is blotchy with ink and practically unreadable. I figure I should transfer the great insight from the video into a more permanent medium. Like my blog! Is the link to the video if you care to watch! It's 17 min long.).
