What I Wore Wednesday

January 4, 2012 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

It's been a few months since I've linked up to The Pleated Poppy for What I Wore Wednesday!  I leave for work before it's light out and come home when it's dark, which makes for really awful lighting for pictures, thus I haven't photographed any of my outfits.  However, I loved Tuesday's outfit so I took a picture despite the awful lighting! Through the magic of Photoshop I was at

Organization Idea

January 4, 2012 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

In my never ending quest to organize the closets in my house, into which I simply stuffed 'stuff' upon moving in, I finally tackled this mess: Believe it or not, that's my tool box (which is in reality the top of a W.B. Mason paper box)!  All of the everyday items such as lights bulbs, batteries, screwdrivers, tape measure, etc. ended up in that box because it's easily accessible as it is

Laundry Closet Makeover Part 1

January 2, 2012 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

The one place in my house that is suppose to get things their cleanest is actually a huge disorganized mess... This was my laundry closet as of 1:00pm Saturday afternoon.  To the right, is the stackable washer/dryer but to the left is a cavernous black hole where cleaning products go to die. Upon moving in in July, I just piled 'things' in there, and, as there are no shelves, there the

I love a good thrift store visit…the only items th I love a good thrift store visit…the only items that came home with us were the beach chair (we needed one), the mini chalkboard (which I’ll take to school to display the “quote of the week”), and the cute New Balance sneakers. Stay tuned for part 2 where I show you all the things that caught the eye of my five year old!! 🤣🥰🎉👏🏻
We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as we sat to take a break, this character came over to say hello. Our daughter has worked so hard in physical therapy to overcome some gross motor challenges related to balance and coordination, most notably learning to walk independently. With some encouragement, she stood up and walked over for a hug! This seemingly mundane moment for most families is SUCH a huge milestone for us- one that is a culmination of YEARS of hard work. Words cannot express how proud I am to be her mom and to have a front row seat to true determination, perseverance, and patience…today was an awesome day and makes me so hopeful for the future! 💗
My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- I miss it every day but feel so lucky I get to come back home for much of the summer to fill my cup right up to the brim! I hope my daughter is building core memories of her time here each summer as well…video captured while on a July Fourth family cruise in front of Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.
Doing my damndest to raise my daughter in a world Doing my damndest to raise my daughter in a world where everyone can live as their most authentic, unique, truest selves and will be accepted and loved for exactly who they are! Happy Pride Month! ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜
Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was get Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was getting ready for bed and I looked out my window and saw both a deer and a bunny and pretty much felt just like Snow White! I can’t get enough of these cute visitors (and also know I won’t be spending a ton on landscaping since most plants won’t stand a chance)! 🤣
Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry tre Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine! 

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!
