Day 2 of “A Week in My Life” series – the 2012 version. Enjoy! 6:40am: I don’t have to run this morning, so I don’t set an alarm and instead wake up to the sound of Kate and G chatting in her room. I go in and say good morning, with hugs and kisses and

My friend Katie turned still-in-her-twenties and graduated with her master’s degree recently.

Storage is in short supply in our house, so it drives me crazier than replacement refs
It all started back when I attended the Haven Conference in June. I toured the vendor booths on Day 3 of the conference, met some great people from Oreck, sat down for a little couch cushion video-taped interview with Chelsea Smith (Oreck’s Social Media Specialist), shook hands, exchanged business cards, and thought nothing further of
Ready for your first peek at Kate’s “big girl room”? (The very first teeny tiny little baby beginning of Kate’s big girl room, mind you.)
