Adieu, 2013…

December 31, 2013 by Tracey 9 Comments

[Press play...] [youtube id="DHEOF_rcND8"] I find it a little bit strange to be at the end of another year. I mean, already. Again. Me: Wow, Time... you sure do march along in a hurry... Time: *coolly* Whut? Me: Time! I'm speaking to you!! Weren't we just here a minute ago? New … [Read more...]

Re-flex-o-lo-gy: an ancient Chinese medicinal practice which is the physical act of applying pressure to the feet, (and hands, or ears) with specific thumb, finger, and hand techniques.

To Build a Home

December 4, 2013 by Tracey 4 Comments

Just press play - then read. [youtube id="bjjc59FgUpg"] You might have heard this song before (it's not new) - it was used on Grey's Anatomy, probably sometime in last few years or so. (I hardly watch network television anymore it seems, but I'm sure I recall it being used during a "trailer" or … [Read more...]

Pharrell Williams – Happy

December 2, 2013 by Tracey 4 Comments

Some people love to get their jingle-on the minute they stash their Halloween accoutrement away for the year, somewhere around November 1st. This is entirely too early for me, mostly because my birthday is November 24th, and I just don't like to mix my birthday shenanigans with the candy cane … [Read more...]

Colour Me This: Paint Selection for the Layperson.

December 2, 2013 by Tracey 8 Comments

Choosing just the right shade of paint for a room can almost paralyze a person. There are SO MANY CHOICES! And there are other things to consider besides just colour -- like whether or not your space is an open-concept, or if your space is compartmentalized room by time. Ideally, there would be a … [Read more...]

Kitchen Coordination, Like a Boss

November 18, 2013 by Tracey 4 Comments

People often say kitchens are the hub of the house, which is true - anyone who's hosted a party knows most of the guests end up jamming themselves together, cramming eats into their mouths, elbow to elbow, crowded over the dip. The smaller the kitchen, the more organised one has to be in order to … [Read more...]

Five Ways an Organized Closet Makes You Feel Like a Rock Star.

November 13, 2013 by Tracey 4 Comments

Anyone who opens a closet door to a wall of disarray, with items slipping off mismatched hangers into growing piles on the floor can tell you how utterly defeating and exhausting it all just looks, much less how crazy it can feel to start wading through it all, just in an effort to get dressed for … [Read more...]

The Last Day of October

November 2, 2013 by Tracey 6 Comments

It's no secret that I'd been ready for October end, but I do enjoy the Halloweening... might as well go out with a loud noise, right? BAM. The other day I talked about getting my costume together, which was fairly easy since I owned nearly all the components already, but the hard part was … [Read more...]

The Makings of a Costume

October 31, 2013 by Tracey Leave a Comment

Getting the whole costume-thing together in time for Halloween is sometimes tricky business. My young daughter is only five, and I know two things for certain - 1) if the costume is decided too early in advance, there will likely be a change of heart within days of the 31st, especially once she … [Read more...]
