Living out loud in the Carolinas

Category: house

  • Guess what we woke up to yesterday?  Our mailbox laying in our yard.  Not just bent over, but completely pulled out of the ground- concrete and all!  The HULK must have been partying across the street and decided to impress his date by ripping out our mailbox by the roots.  This makes me angry.  Now,…

  • CSP is off for 2 days in a row this week so we’re painting the dining room.  We’re starting out with builder white and going to a color called Dynamo.  It’s a fun raspberry color.  I’ll post pics once we get the chair rail up and stuff hung on the walls.  I loooove the color…

  • Don’t know if you heard, but we had a flood last week due to the remnants of Hurricane Fay.   The weather people didn’t call for it really, just some rain.  So we went to sleep thinking we were just getting rain. We woke up and flipped out.  There’s a huge “natural” area behind our house. …

  • Finally- the Christmas post. Christmas Eve we gathered at Sara’s (my sister) for dinner and presents. I brought over a big pan of baked mac & cheese and I also made a fabulous dip. It doesn’t really have a name, but it’s good. Cream cheese, splash of lime juice, southwest seasoning- all smeared on the…

  • So I’m trying to be more of an eco responsible girl. We recycle through our town. We use those squirelly swirly CFL light bulbs. We turn off the water while we’re brushing our teeth. I take my own bags to the store (and get some funky looks sometimes- nothing like walking into T@rget with a…

  • Busy month ahead. I gotta get to work on Shannon’s baby shower gift! And get my house totally decorated and cleaned up for my Pampered Chef party on the 22nd. I have to show you a snippet of my life. I told you all about our ant invasion right? Well since we had to put…

  • I was doing a load of laundry last night when all of the sudden the toilet in the powder room and the kitchen sink started making all these gluggy noises.   CSP plunged the toilet thinking maybe it was clogged, but mid-plunge it started to fill up and he had to shut the water off.  Then…

  • Lisa advised me that I should explain a bit about Jon sleeping in the closet.  First of all, he only sleeps there if he has to sleep during the day.  Our bedroom gets too much sun.  Also there is an a/c vent in the closet so it’s nice and cool.  Plus, it’s big.  I mean…

  • Wow, you’d think a Tuesday would be just another regular day right? No. First of all I forgot to show you the cutest tea pot that Lisa sent me for my birthday. It arrived on Saturday and I just love the way it looks in my lime green kitchen! Y’all know by now to click…

  • So I made a list of all the photos y’all requested the other day and I’m getting to them bit by bit. Click to enlarge. <a href=”“>Outside of fridge <a href=”“>Inside of fridge <a href=”“>Summer toenail polish
