My friend’s husband died. So young. Pulled from the earth at an unexpected moment. They had it all – a beautiful family and life they worked hard to build – gorgeous home, cars and a summer vacation planned. And now he’s gone. My mind fills with pictures – pictures that I just looked at three […]
Thursday, April 26th, 2012Television Repair 101 – flashing lights
I love technology – computers, music players, televisions, etc. I don’t like when technology breaks because every repairman wants to make a lot of money to fix the expensive gadgets. During the summer, my Samsung television would go off intermittently. The television would flash two lights on the display. I tried timing it to see if it […]
Wednesday, April 25th, 2012Getting ready to be a pilot
Although I may be the worst driver in the world, I’m actually a decent driver in the air! I’ve been taking flying lessons for 16 months now. And I am getting ready to take the pilot’s test. I have almost 60 hours flying time and my instructor said I’m ready today. Some people think that […]
Thursday, April 19th, 2012Make It or Break It
I’ve been watching this show on ABC Family for three years now – Make It or Break It. The show is so sweet. It started out with four main gymnasts and has evolved into one leaving the show and being replaced by several new gymnasts. Payson Keeler played by Ayla Kell. Payson is the sweet, shy […]
Thursday, April 19th, 2012Looking at a Vintage Shop Online – A Thread

Wednesday, April 11th, 2012I love Agrarian.com
I love http://agrarian.com This is Williams Sonoma new site which sells plants, seeds, gardening tools, chicken coops and even honey bee houses. Now naturally I can’t have a chicken coop in my Brooklyn backyard, but I love these charming seed packets and burlap wrapped plants: Have you ever wanted to make your own Ricotta Cheese? I am […]
Monday, April 2nd, 2012How can I use the Fort Hamilton Army Base Pool?
It’s getting hot and you hear everyone else is going to the Fort Hamilton Army Base Pool so naturally you want to go to, right? The FHCC (Fort Hamilton Community Club) has two types of memberships which you can purchase to the pool. July 2018: No more memberships are for sale. Try back in April […]
Wednesday, March 28th, 2012Chloe Loves Charlie
Chloe may love Charlie, but I don’t love the prices at Chloe Loves Charlie. They are a vintage clothing store and their things are cute, but they are a bit expensive. Until I looked in their under $50 section and then I rethought the store and said hello Chloe you can love whoever you like! […]

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012Valentine’s Day Reminds me How Lucky I am
I love Valentine’s Day. Long ago, Lee and I started to give each other computer equipment on this day. We both love computers so getting new tech gear is fitting. But that isn’t why I love this day. I am sure many bloggers have sweet lines to write on Valentine’s Day. I don’t have any […]
Sunday, February 5th, 2012Pottery Barn Knockoffs or PB Inspired?
I love, love, love Pottery Barn. When we bought this house, I slowly bought PB furniture for each room. And friends and family usually buy me PB items or give me gift cards for PB. I love seeing the Pottery Barn inspired posts of bloggers on the web, as well as stores which have a Pottery […]
Friday, February 3rd, 2012RIP Eira Maghuyop
I wish I had the answer to the bullying problem. I know schools are teaching about it in classes, but kids are still bullying and another beautiful girl has died. Is a Facebook page going to solve it? http://www.facebook.com/pages/RIP-Eira-Maghuyop-Like-if-your-against-bullying/320184098023912 I wish it was that easy. I think laws need to be passed so students and […]
