Fair warning, dear reader, the below is almost as long as a novel, but it'll be an interesting read. Grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy the chaos... Approximately two weeks ago, D (the sort-of-boy-toy, remember him?) asked if I would be interested in going with him and his kids to a sort-of-nearby amusement part… Continue reading Bad Decisions, Chaos and Calamities

The Completely Unsolicited “Things we Love” Post
Hi there, Catie here! Two weeks in a row, impressive right? I thought it would be fun to do something a little different this week.

I decided to break it down to our… Continue reading The Completely Unsolicited “Things we Love” Post
