Oof! I think I’m phoning it in this year.

On December 8, 2023 By Em D In Christmas, Holidays, Where Bloggers Live

I hope you’ll forgive me, but I’m having a moment. I am SO going to regret saying this… But: Not. Feeling. It. This is likely blasphemy and when January rolls in I will reflect on …

On December 6, 2017 By Em D In Christmas, Holidays

Let’s just say it out loud, shall we?  When it comes to Christmas lights, I’m certifiable. If you’ve been here before, you know this…heck, half of my posts are about SOME type of lights. But …

Christmas Traditions

On December 1, 2017 By Em D In Christmas, Holidays, Uncategorized

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!
