That Bettye…such a kidder. The topic for this month’s “Where Bloggers Live” post is “What I Do When I’m Bored.” Ha, ha….I think Bettye’s trying to tell me something. Throwing down the gauntlet. Tossing out …

Welcome, fellow kids!

Hi, I'm Em!
Let's hang out together while I procrastinate and DIY my way though home dec, gardening, and home improvement projects, OR..share a few thoughts on the topic du jour.

The nest is empty, but I live with
Mr. D & D and two-and-a-half spoiled dogs in a house filled with visiting kiddos, lots of love, occasional bickering, and a little bit of...dust and dog hair.

KNOCK KNOCK

WHO'S THERE?

Me, but not too often!
