Dreams: Nobody Said it Would Be Easy
This week has really been a struggle for me. I feel like all the work and all the moving and all the being responsible is really getting to me. I need something and I don’t even know what it is. Monday, Emma started public school […]
I’m Building a Ship
Today I was reminded of a blog post I shared from David DuChemin. He is one of my favorite photographer/writers. His blog and Facebook pages are full of inspiration and motivation. I have a couple of his books, I’m a fan. Anyway, I reposted a […]

Carpet’s Dirty Little Secret
When we bought our ranch, we originally wanted to have all wood floors in the house. We intended on using area rugs to warm up the rooms. Then we moved into our rental which has all woods floors and zero carpet. We haven’t bought any […]
Inspiration Saturday 10/24/15
Just the other day I was thinking about design. I was thinking about those people who have said to me they’re “just not creative.” I had a girlfriend last week who told me she just can’t think of ideas for decorating her house. I’ve also […]
I’m Going to be a Farmer!
The ranch we own is 10 acres. Five of those acres are alfalfa hay. Due to the fact no one has been living at the property full time for many years, our next door neighbor has been maintaining the pasture. He is a career farmer […]
