it's your mirror: December 2013
http://itsyourmirror.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. Sometimes things fall into place. I've been thinking a lot about changes I'm making to my business and how that will effect things in 2014, my resolutions are usually things like getting better organized, etc. My primary focus lately has been getting a better grasp on my crafty finances (especially not waiting until tax time each year to even think. So to recap: Resolution #1: crafty finances. Resolution #2: improve my photo skills. More info on this class here. We walked by th...

When it snows in England this year, Just blame the Badgers. | Detroit to Devon; Mom becomes Mum
https://detroitmom2devonmum.wordpress.com/2013/10/19/when-it-snows-in-england-this-year-just-blame-the-badgers
Detroit to Devon; Mom becomes Mum. Portents of doom, along with rants from an expat mummy. Skip to primary content. Drawings. Just because you asked. When it snows in England this year, Just blame the Badgers. I love England, I really do. I sometimes can not get my head around they way things are done here. The White Rose tonight said; Mumma? Why don’t we have a Kohls? And why do they spell it coals here? That is a damn hard question to answer. Coal is something that you burn to keep warm. Then after 23 ...

it's your mirror: February 2014
http://itsyourmirror.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 27, 2014. I grew up watching TV, maybe even more than the average kid, but I was also spending tons of time playing outside, drawing, riding my bike, entertaining myself in my room, etc. I turned out fine and I had a great childhood! In fact, the TV memories from my childhood, if anything ENHANCED it! So why do I beat myself up about screen time? Another component to this is Finn has never really been the kind of kid to play by himself, and as an only child that's an important skill...

Monday, August 4, 2014. Brain Drops Keep Fallin' From My Head } or, why is my cerebrospinal fluid dripping out of my nose? I read that most CSF leaks take over a year to diagnose. Or maybe I just have a small leak? Is a small leak ok to live with? How much brain juice can I spare? Because really - THIS COULD BE NOTHING! Like I said, the not-knowing is making me crazy.

it's your mirror: November 2013
http://itsyourmirror.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 30, 2013. This year I had Thanksgiving at my house for the very first time. I found myself so overwhelmed with thankfulness over such simple things, things like this. A recent (pre-Thanksgiving) conversation with my mom:. Mom (clearly worried for me): "How's it going? Me (not worried at all): "Good. I'm making a spreadsheet of all the prep and cooking times to get myself organized.". Mom: "DON'T EVEN BOTHER! But back to the important thing that I'm most thankful for: my family! My craz...

it's your mirror: Super cute birthday goodie bags for under 5 bucks per kid!
http://itsyourmirror.blogspot.com/2014/01/super-cute-birthday-goodie-bags-for.html
Tuesday, January 28, 2014. Super cute birthday goodie bags for under 5 bucks per kid! That had a few good ideas including this one. I loved these little travel sketchbooks from Under the Sycamore. There is a full tutorial on her blog, but although a brilliant idea, it seemed a little labor intensive to me (for this project at least) so I simplified it a bit with modifications to avoid using any glue or sewing! Here's what I came up with! And all for under $5! And here's the finished product! I just used ...

it's your mirror: Honeymoon From Hell
http://itsyourmirror.blogspot.com/2013/12/honeymoon-from-hell.html
Tuesday, December 10, 2013. I've heard it said that a honeymoon from hell pretty much seals the deal for a happy marriage. As far as I can tell this is true. Last Tuesday was my nine year wedding anniversary. Despite having the dreamiest wedding ever we pretty much narrowly survived the honeymoon. This looks like it could be a stock photo of a tropical paradise, but it's just one that I snapped from the balcony of our hotel room in Barbados. That was the plan anyway. Our driver did come for us finally an...

Wednesday, September 3, 2014. B&E (Bored and Exploring). The Castle yard was all mine until a few years later when I noticed some action around the house. Construction! They must be fixing it up! The super skinny tower windows were my favorite vantage point. Photo via East Bay Chamber of Commerce). The Castle, side view, trefoil window upstairs.
