This is the story of a girl who is unemployed and growing increasingly more lazy by the minute. She spent some time today browsing some blogs about desserts. After seeing recipe after recipe for things like “tiramisushi” and “chai tea cupcakes” I’ve learned something important about myself. I’m just an ice cream kind of girl. [...]

This is quite image hefty, I would apologize but let’s be honest, if I was really sorry I wouldn’t have included so many pictures. Quite frankly, I add the pictures in to show you how awesome I really am. That being said, I spent a few hours this morning making more blankets for this baby. [...]

After weeks of staring at a gigantic piece of fabric and thinking, “how on earth am I going to do this”..and then finally cutting, and thinking I really messed it up..and then calling my mom for back-up….(sigh)..my baby’s room finally has curtains! I believe them to be the greatest curtains ever, but I suppose you [...]

“It’s 2008, I can assume she didn’t flee on horseback”. Yeah, see blog posting below. Well guess what, Christopher Crosby, the 25 year old fugitive in Clermont County, IS fleeing on horseback. Apparently he’s believed to be on his third stolen horse at this point, yet our little rhinestone cowboy has yet to get out [...]

I want to know who is writing headlines in this town. No, really..it’s getting out of hand with stupidity. For instance, “Westwood Shooting Victim Taken To Hospital”. Well, where do you suppose we take them, BW3’s? While they might enjoy a tasty cardboard container of wings, that’s probably not on their mind after they got [...]

Honestly, I just don’t sleep very well anymore. I’m not particularly uncomfortable or anything, I just wake up at random..or to go potty and then I can’t get back to sleep. So after 30 minutes of looking at the ceiling this morning I decided to get up and make a receiving blanket. I had pinned [...]

Since I’m taking the weekend off from the Weekender Bag, I’ll show you what I have been up to with my sewing machine. After wearing the same black skirt to church for the last 8 weeks I decided that my maternity wardrobe needed something new. Also, I find maternity shorts to be a foolish purchase [...]

After a month, I don’t know that I should even call this progress. It’s more like “Amy Butler Weekender Bag - I’m pacing myself…”. After spending two days doing the cutting I took a long hiatus from anything related to sewing in general, with the exception of looking at fabric online. I’ve also decided to [...]

So, I’m a jury target. You think I’m kidding? I’ve been called for jury duty three times in four years in two counties. My husband has fallen victim to my curse, as he received his summons for Grand Jury this week. I cannot wait to call the Butler County sheriff’s department when I go into [...]

“Man Pays Wife’s $25,000 Bond In Cash”
This headline seemed so stupid I had to read the accompanying article. A woman being charged with running a national prostitution ring had her husband post her bail in $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 dollar bills. This is almost as bad as posting your bail in change. [...]
