Another fabulous Shane McDermott papercraft project. This one’s in conjunction with the annual advent calendar. I’ll post a link to the online version as soon as it goes live. The calendar is here! [Project 365]
Oh, it’s funny now. But we are in the pre-explosive diaper phase of babydom. And I really have to link to a picture of Courtney’s unbelievable shower cake, made by Rebecca as a tribute to Cake Wrecks, a blog Courtney likes very much. This thing was magnificently funny, replete with ridiculous sayings scrawled all over it, and carrot jockeys. Oh, and it was yummy, too. [Project 365]
But — and don’t tell anyone — he’s not really all that terrible at all. [Project 365]
Because he knows my penchant for things that are both awesome and absurd, Sir Sig hooked me up with this for a housewarming gift. The first night I had it? I donned it, ate a bag of popcorn, and fell asleep on the couch — draped in cats — while watching MST3K. I’m gonna go ahead and score that one a big win. [Project 365]
These little beauties were waiting on me when I got home from work. +10 brownie points for the sender. [Project 365]
I was so busy actually moving that I didn’t really take any pictures of the actual move in progress. I’m so grateful to Evan and Shane and Ashley for helping me, though. There is no way in hell I could have gotten it done without them. Moving the cats to a new place has been the most hilarious and annoying thing ever. As soon as I let them out of their carriers at the new…

Gave two tours of the house and even got a bottle of wine hand delivered to me by Mr. Fancycwabs, Professional Educator, himself. So far…
I work with ladies who can do some amazing things in the kitchen. This time Rebecca fooled everyone into thinking she’d bought these little donuts. Nope. She baked them. [Project 365]
Buying a house has been the most harrowing, confusing, frustrating, hard-fought, demoralizing, exhilarating, nerve-wracking, crazymaking experience of my life. My loan officer — for whom who I have Kerry V to thank — called my purchase a miracle, and said she’d “given birth to a Turner loan,” which only came to fruition less than 24 hours before the actual deadline to close. For some completely masochistic reason ($8,000 in sweet Obamabucks!), I chose to buy…
Stephanie had some fun in the kitchen, which usually ends up benefiting the office. I chose the cyclops, for reasons I will not get into here. [Project 365]
