My Best Friend

Still Improving
When in doubt, tear up the whole house at once. I realized that the bedroom carpet was coming but hadn't painted (even though I had over a month's notice) - can you say procrastinate?

Bad idea.When I returned home, Destructo Dog apparently had… Continue reading Bad Dog, No Biscuit
My Old Kentucky Home
I hope the sun is shining bright on my Old Kentucky Home today - it's Derby Day! Best time of the year to be in Lou-a-vull. Two weeks of non-stop partying and festivals in celebration of the fastest two minutes in sports. In honor of the Run for the Roses and my Southern heritage, I'm… Continue reading My Old Kentucky Home
