I tried to write a post about moving yesterday, but nothing seemed right. It’s safe to say that Scott and I have been on an emotional roller coaster for the past few days/weeks/months. We moved across the state of Virginia on Sunday, with most of our stuff to follow behind when we find a new…

Guilt
I know, I never call. I never write. I’m sorry. It’s bad when even my dog is trying to guilt me into blogging. The good news is that I’ve tested new, delicious recipes. I’ve taken fun pictures. I’ve painted new paintins. There are good things to come, I promise.
Oh MLK tree, oh MLK tree
You might have guessed that we still have our Christmas tree up. Oops. We did get the ornaments off of the tree yesterday, however, so that’s something.

Start-up Encouragement
First of all, I was under the impression that my last blog entry was a week ago. (Oops.) Second, it’s been a good week for my Etsy shop. (Yay!!) I haven’t made my first million yet, but I did make a sale to a total stranger who in no way felt a need to boost…
