My mission should I choose to accept it–make new covers for the camper cushions. Da na naaaa Da na naaa! BOM BOM! bom bom BOM BOM! Sewing is something learned to do WAY back in junior high. I fancied myself a fashion expert–since I was on the cutting edge in my jelly shoes and tuxedo…

Camper Fixer Upper–Phase 3 The waiting is the hardest part
When last we checked in on the Camper Fixer Upper progress–we were left on a cliff hanger….the propane tank and the bumper. Did the propane tank blow up? Did the bumper fall off causing everything to come crashing down? These are the days of my life. (cue: swell of over the top orchestra music paired…
The Camper Fixer Upper–Phase 2: Two bloopers and lessons learned
In my last post I told you about and showed pics of the awesome laminate sheeting we got for the ceiling of our camper (you can read about it here). Today I’ll show you what we did with the floor and some “fun” we had discovering how the mechanics work in the camper. Both…
The Camper Fixer Upper–Phase 1
Last week I shared with you about our newest fixer upper purchase–a very well used and loved pop up camper. I never shy away from a project and this one is especially exciting to us. Not only is it going to be a fun, but the end result will mean we get to go camping…
The “Amazing Race” of Camper Purchasing
A few weeks ago–after I had my designated minimum two cups of coffee–we decided to start shopping online for a pop up camper. We have been wanting one for a long time, but our very tight budget always kept it from being within our grasp. Super Rockstar was perusing Craigslist and found one listed at…
How do you help Peter Pan want to grow up?
Last week was school conference day for my boys . Oh how I dread these meetings with my older son, Morgan’s teacher. It’s not because I don’t like her–I like her a lot. It’s just that every meeting, every encounter, every other email–is almost all about his misbehavior. It’s always been like this–starting with preschool….
I Don’t Wanna!!! 4 Things I need to do but don’t feel like it
“Do these 7 things and you will be much more productive!” “5 ways to immediately get more time in your life!” Anyone else have titles like these pop out at you are your social media feeds? They all sound so great and I certainly appreciate help in becoming more organized. I love making a list…
From the Blooper Reel–A High Sided Durango That Rendered Men Speechless
The year was 2011. My boys were 2 and 4 and –for reasons I can’t explain– I became obsessed with the idea of needing an obnoxiously huge SUV. I was fixated on wanting a car with an optional 3rd row seat. Looking back I think I was secretly hoping to add to our family, but…
Becoming Whole Part 5: Spiritual Wellness
We made it to the finish line! Woo Hoo! I know it’s been a rather difficult journey of looking into ourselves and evaluating where we are in all of these areas of wellness and looking ahead at where we would like to be. I think it is fitting to end this series with Spiritual Wellness….
Becoming Whole Part 4: Emotional Wellness
We are nearing the end of our Wellness Wheel journey. I don’t know about you–but, I’m exhausted. As typical of me in reaching the month of February–I’m done with making goals, let alone sticking to them. But, I am committed to this whole notion of trying to live my life differently than I have been. …
