Living Room, at last
Over the weekend, J and I finally (FINALLY!) got rid of the last of our “extra” stuff. We donated the vast majority of it (including the last of our free furniture from when we were first married) to a local group that runs three thrift stores that benefit disabled veterans– Disabled American Veteran Thrift Stores.

Days downtown: week 20 of 2012 in photos
I spent a lot of time downtown this week, especially at the zoo, so most of this weeks’ photos are from that. This was the Coke display at the grocery store on Monday. I thought it was cool. They do some really clever things with the boxes of soda. It never makes me want to […]

Cats and Concerts: week 19 of 2012 in photos
I’m starting on Tuesday again for this week’s entry but will try and get back to starting on Mondays to keep track of the weeks better. All of the bougainvillea are blooming and this is my favorite color.

Finding Art in the Everyday: week 15 of 2012 in pictures
This week has been filled with art in surprising places. This first picture from Monday was hanging in a “gallery” at one of the local frozen yogurt shops, where about 25 drawings by 4 and 5 year old kids were featured. This one was far and away the best, as it depicts an alien family […]

Easter week and spring-time things: week 14 of 2012 in pictures
Even though it’s not quite a dramatic shift here the way it is on the mainland, there are definitely signs that it’s springtime, from Easter traditions to flowers that will bloom on schedule no matter where they are planted. On Sunday (April 1) we had what’s called a “worship artist” come and paint this canvas […]

Beach day
There are several posts I mean to write this month. One of them is maybe a new “Learn a New Animal Day” entry, but I can’t quite decide which animal I want to do. I’m open to suggestions. Instead you get to hear about how I went to the beach today and how, despite my […]

Springtime in Hawaii: week 13 of 2012 in photos
Monday was the first day for which I don’t seem to have a photo, so I’m posting two from Tuesday, 3/27. This is my friend’s backyard.
