How I Spent My Thanksgiving Break

November 28, 2010

The Thanksgiving holiday is one of my favorites.  Usually it involves eating copious amounts of food and laying around being lazy for a long weekend.  I love having Thursday thru Sunday off.  This year, however, we decided to commit ourselves to working over at Danny’s mom’s house.  There is SO much stuff to do over […]

So Tired

November 24, 2010

It has been a minute since I updated this thing.  Last night I stayed up until well after midnight.  That can only mean one thing – college basketball season has started.  Duke was playing in a pre-season championship game and did not tip off until after 10pm.  I made it until the end of the […]

My Dog Hates Me

November 16, 2010

Last week, Danny and I were watching the 10 o’clock news and a story caught our eye.  It was about a product that you could buy that would help with anxiety in dogs.  The story was very positive and, after further review the product on Amazon.com, I decided to place my order online the very […]

An Ode to the Crockpot

November 7, 2010

If I had to pick a favorite kitchen utensil – it would probably be a toss-up between my food processor and crockpot.  This weekend, the crockpot wins because I used the hell out of it. For the longest time, I totally overlooked this thing.  My last crockpot was a hand me down straight out of […]

I Voted (and other random things)

November 2, 2010

Around 10AM this morning I headed out to the polls to cast my vote in today’s election.  I don’t want to get too political on the blog.  I used to be really interested in politics.  In fact, at one point I thought about double majoring in Mass Communications and Political Science and had aspirations of […]

Finally Friday

October 29, 2010

The weekend is finally here!  A few days ago (on Wednesday), Danny turned to me and said, “You know, I really wish that today was Thursday.”  This week seemed particularly long.  All I wanted to do tonight was hang out at home. We ordered carry out from a new (to us) Thai restaurant called Thai […]

Shuckin’, Grillin’ and Chillin’

October 25, 2010

On Saturday evening our friends Carla and Iron Mark hosted an Oyster Roast in honor of Carla’s parents 40th anniversary.  Due to the fact that I was all hopped up on cold medicine, I didn’t think to grab my camera on the way out the door. On Sunday afternoon I got a call from Carla […]

Totally Inconvenient

October 21, 2010

Not that there is really ever a good time to get sick – but, this is a really bad weekend for me.  I have plans on Saturday night that include hanging out with friends and this whole getting sick thing is just not going to work for me. Right now it is just a sore […]

Duke Football Fail

October 17, 2010

As a die-hard Duke fan, I feel that it is my job to support the football team as well as the basketball team.  Being a Duke football fan is hard.  We try so hard to stay optimistic, but, get our hearts broken over and over again. Yesterday we woke up super early and made the […]

A Sweet Reward

October 9, 2010

This has been the most productive Saturday that we have had in quite some time.  For about a month we have been talking about how we needed to get over to Danny’s mom’s house and start the process of cleaning it out to get ready to put on the market.  Today we decided to stop […]
