Sharing My Life One Bite at a Time
I woke up yesterday morning with the plan of having a lazy Sunday. I ate Eggnog Pancakes in my PJs and then lingered around the house drinking Marylou’s Milky Way iced coffee. Eventually, Mal and I motivated ourselves to take Murphy to the dog park for a “nature walk.” Lunch After the park, we came home [...]

Two years ago today, Mal and I officially became homeowners!! I can’t believe two years has flown by so quickly. I also can’t believe we’ve managed to stay in one place for an entire two years. Remember when we used to move every 6 months or so? I’m not going to lie, I’m so glad [...]

Check out our new driveway!!! (You can see the before pics here.) It’s so cool. (The hole in the photo above is a gas line, which couldn’t be paved over, so it’s filled in with some dirt/gravel.) Ahhh! I love it! You should have seen Mal’s face when he came home from work yesterday afternoon. [...]

It’s driveway day! Yay!! The pavers arrived bright and early this morning to get started on our driveway. So long rocks and roots! Remember how bad they looked? Ready to pave! Of course, Murphy assumed his role as “supervisor” for the project. He hasn’t left his post on the sun porch since 8:00 AM this [...]

Holy moly, I just went on a major cleaning spree. Our house wasn’t even all that messy, but the urge to clean just came over me. Does that ever happen to you? You just feel the need to clean? I’m not usually psyched about cleaning, but, sometimes, it feels good to do! So fresh. So [...]

For the past two days, I’ve heard non-stop jack-hammering. Mal dislikes the huge rock in our front yard (he thinks it’s annoying to mow around), so we hired some guys to remove it, but it’s turned into a much bigger project than expected. Hence, the non-stop jack-hammering. Of course, Murphy is closely “supervising” the project. The [...]

And here’s Part II of a very happy weekend! After CrossFit, Mal and I came home and dillydallied around the house for a few hours and then headed into Boston to meet Elizabeth and Nick for an early dinner at Eastern Standard. I hadn’t been to Eastern Standard since bunch after the run I did [...]

Check out the (unexpected) scene that I came home to on Saturday night: The ugly bushes are gone! Whoa, right? Apparently, the landscaping project at our house started a little early! After getting a bunch of quotes from different landscapers, Mal and I pretty much made up our mind on who we wanted to hire. [...]

I’m not sure if you noticed the walls in our bedroom from this morning’s post, but there’s nothing on them. For some reason, Mal and I just can’t commit to hanging things on our walls. Of course, we want to decorate, but I guess we’re just afraid of making a bad decision—you know, hanging up [...]

Good morning from Murphy! He’s just chillin’ on his our bed right now. When I was making the bed this morning, I thought about how much I enjoy spending time in our bedroom. It’s easily my favorite room in the whole house. The bed is comfy and cozy, and when I finally climb in at [...]
