A place to sleep

A place to sleep

When I went to New Mexico . . . back in February, I guess it was, I saw this in my InStyle magazine: Since we had an unfinished dresser, I thought it would be fun to take the idea and run with it. When I mentioned it to Michael, he decided we should just re-do [...]

And then there was change

Bus-y. That’s me. Ok, well, it’s kind of a lie, because not this past week, but the week before, I didn’t work, but I did a lot of errands, so I was busy. And now, I digress. Changes are afoot in casa de Gray Cat. Our bedroom is almost finished, we are working on re-doing [...]
