I live in Dallas with my husband, Sean, my son, Stephen, and 2 dogs, Lola and Emmy. I started this blog in 2007 prior to the birth of my son. At the same time, we tore down our duplex and built three townhomes to sell, but that happened to be the worst timing in the middle of the Great Recession. We live in one of the three townhomes and rent out the other 2, hoping to sell them sometime in 2010. We like a lot of things happening, usually at once. I cooking, reading, photography, walking my dogs, and constructing our lives.
