Somethin's Gotta Give


I apologize to those of you who take the time to find me out here in cyber world, but it's a non-blog week. DH and I tackled the 800 square foot deck this week. Sanding and staining has been a time-consuming task. And, when I'm not knee-deep in Cedar tone #2053, I am busy with the revision.
However, I don't want you to leave disappointed. I give you the girls for your viewing pleasure. See you next week!

  1. Take care! Construction isn't for the faint of heart. ;-)

  3. While I'm looking forward to hearing again from you soon, your girls are so cute :) Best of luck with the construction and revision! Oh, and since I've been wondering for some time: Where do you get all those beautiful quotes from that you use as headline for each blog post (e.g. the one by Alan Rickman)?

  4. Nicole,

    I rarely start with the quote in mind (although it has happened a few times.) After I write a blog piece, I analyze it for an anchoring theme. Then I type that theme in Google along with the word "quote" and see what comes up. Sometimes it takes a while to get the right fit, but it's always fun reading the selection anyway.
