taking a break from spackling and painting

Sorry I’ve been scarce here these past few days! It’s been very busy. First, my sister was here last weekend for her fall break! It was so great to be with her. I have pictures from our romp in the park but those will have to come later. Last week Paul and I went in to sign our lease (can you believe we’ve been here a year already?!), and on impulse we asked if they had anything else available. And…

STOMP!

STOMP!

A LOT has been going on recently, so I’ll be posting them in separate posts as not to overwhelm you too much. ;-) First, a happy birthday today to Andréa, my best friend from high school.

We keep…

have the 3am phone calls stopped?

have the 3am phone calls stopped?

So last Tuesday, I was wakened up around quarter to 3 in the morning with the realization that my phone was ringing. I keep my phone downstairs by my purse, so it took a little while before it woke me up. I got up, checked it, and saw it was a 615 area code. I pause my story briefly to explain that 615 is the area code for Nashville. Also, we had been getting a lot of calls from people…
