Beeps 'n Rays: March 2012
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 23, 2012. Reclaim Your Free Time! Culturally, there's now a vision of work without end as the central focus of one's existence- but leisure is a crucial part of the American Dream.". To reclaim our free time- and enjoy it- 'shifting our standards is critical. our expectations that we can get everything done are totally out of sync with our lives.' We would be happier if we prioritized time for ourselves. Thursday, March 22, 2012. PS: I just realized that this month marks my THIRD ANNIVERSAR...

Beeps 'n Rays: Custom Curtains
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2012/04/custom-curtains.html
Monday, April 9, 2012. Take a look at our sun room before the curtains. The fabric is perfect and my crew of workers couldn't have been better! My mom and I sewed for a day and a half straight (it was a LOT of fabric to deal with) and then my hubby and dad hung the curtains for me today. Aren't they cute? Whimsical, light, and airy, just like this room should be. I would be remiss if I didn't also mention that I followed a tutorial. For the faux Roman shade. Labels: House and Home. Maryland, United States.

Beeps 'n Rays: August 2011
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Yeah, it's been that kind of day where even B's toes. Are protesting. hehe! Monday, August 29, 2011. Well, we're trying to get this school year off to a good start, but Mother Nature sure is making it difficult! Today was supposed to be the first day of school, but because of widespread power outages after Hurricane Irene, I spent the day at home. It was so weird to have the first day. Tuesday, August 23, 2011. Did you feel the earthquake, too? Several things were knocked over...

Beeps 'n Rays: July 2011
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. Summer in the city,. Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city". Beautiful day, but hot! Thank goodness for the cool breeze blowing off of the Mediterranean (the same "mistral" wind we enjoyed while visiting Cassis in southern France). It was like air conditioning for the city. Las Ramblas is a long, wide pedestrian street full of little artsy-craftsy vendors and performance artists. Keep your backpacks and purses close to you! Which we saw in person while in Madrid. How cool! Ironic...

Beeps 'n Rays: November 2011
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 28, 2011. This Year's Tree Ornament. I got this bullfinch (birdie) pattern here. And decided to use whatever scraps I had lying about. So instead of black, white, and red, mine are. well, you can see for yourself! I used them to decorate the wine bottles I was giving to some of my family members. I've been working on other sewing projects, too. but I have to keep those under wraps (pun IN-. Tended) until after Christmas. Wednesday, November 23, 2011. Monday, November 14, 2011. I started ...

Beeps 'n Rays: October 2011
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 24, 2011. Remember this serious sewer? Well let me just show you how awesome she is. She's being featured on a blog as this week's "self-taught sewer." Check out her interview. At One Eleven. I'm so proud of her! Sunday, October 23, 2011. We're back from seeing The Lion King on Broadway. AMAZING! We had such a great trip. We took a bus to NYC and checked into our 4-star hotel, The Kitano, right on Park Avenue. After dinner we wandered around Times Square a bit before heading to the theater.

Beeps 'n Rays: Dangerously Delicious
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2012/03/dangerously-delicious.html
Thursday, March 22, 2012. Today I discovered an amazing new taste sensation. Girl Scout Trefoil cookies Trader Joe's mango butter. Yum! I ate an embarrassingly large quantity of these today when I got home from work. Oops! PS: I just realized that this month marks my THIRD ANNIVERSARY of blogging. I have to admit, I was completely shocked by this, and had to go back to reread my first post and verify that it really was written 3 years ago. Where did the time go?

Beeps 'n Rays: December 2011
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2011. The English teacher in me just LOVES this one. I couldn't help but chuckle, and then jump right over here to share it with you. Maybe you'll giggle, too! Thursday, December 29, 2011. I made a camera strap for both my sister and Jackpot's birthdays, and they came out so cute! I loved that the tutorial. I followed included a pocket for the lens cap. Unfortunately, my sister's lens cap did not fit in the pocket, so hers was a bust. Tuesday, December 27, 2011. I got a cam-ra,.

Beeps 'n Rays: April 2012
http://beepsnrays.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 24, 2012. 10 for Tuesday: Anticipation. Thanks to a little inspiration from Jackpot, here's my 10 for Tuesday:. My new bathing suits were waiting at my door when I got home. Now if only it was time to fly to the Gulf already! I took a break from Mary Kay this month, but she's sending me little signs that it's time to get busy again. Watch out, May! Hubby and I have plans to re-stain our balcony, and as soon as we do I'll be able to buy my summer flowers and plant, plant, plant! We loved ha...
