I saw this picture  on someone’s blog over a month ago.   I didn’t know what to “do” with it or what to think….so I copied it into my files.   It has haunted me ever since. Jean-Yves-Lemoigne-Photography I keep going back to it and looking. What do you think when you look at this photo? … Read More

It’s what we do

It’s what we do…almost every evening . . . We practice our  West Coast Swing steps because if we don’t,  I will forget every last step and because,  I like to dance with DIY Guy DIY guy is a good dancer —  I think it’s the percussionist in him! The last few nights DIY Guy … Read More

My grass seed project:  Day 5 Day 7 see the dew on the tips of the grass blades? This green grass growing inside makes me smile in one short week – grass! I definitely recommend growing it!

It was time

It was time for a new hairstyle.   Going short crossed my mind…I did that a few years ago. But I’ve got kinda used to longer (medium) length hair. Nate is home for the weekend.  He took these photos so I could send them to Cara –then we ended up talking to her on Skype, so … Read More

As of December 2008, I’ve been working in this office downtown. Good people, great parties, beautiful atmosphere.  And who could complain about once a month “Therapeutic Thursday” when beer and appetizers are served in the office during the last hour of the day?

Jack of all trades

CheriGENERAL

“Jack of all trades…and master of none”. Yeah, that quote sounds like me.  Many creative outlets, venues and classes have been attempted by yours truly over the years. There is this creative desire lurking inside me that demands to be fed.  Some might call this the plight of the “right-brained” person.  After reading some characteristics … Read More

Every other year we sign up for the vision plan through DIY Guy’s place of employment.  That’s the year we all get our eyes checked, and get new glasses.  I am usually more than ready for new glasses — although my vision has changed each visit — the biggest reason I’m ready is because I … Read More
