It has been weeks since I posted on a Friday. The One Room Challenge required all my time and focus, and I still feel like I'm in the middle of a long exhale now that it is over. Also, I've been taking on some freelance writing projects lately. In other words, I'm side hustling. Hustle is…

You know how when you're so exhausted you feel like you want to cry? Then, you look back at how much work you did to make you so tired, and you actually start to cry? That's me. I'm happy. I'm sore from the pure physical effort of it all, and you couldn't pay me to…

It's week FIVE of the One Room Challenge. Week five is usually when the following thought hits me: I need a staff. My enthusiasm is waning; The work is not. Even so, I think I'm ok? That question mark ending is not a typo. This week has just been pure physical labor without a pretty little…
