Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
Oh hello there, I’m just sitting here enjoying my tree which is sheltering all the gifts we’ve gotten so far. For people, not that we’ve received. That’s totally different. Anyway, It’s delightful to have an under-tree full of gifts, partially because it keeps my cats from running rampant under the tree skirt, but mostly because […]
Good morning friends. I was going to try and write about wrapping presents today, but I haven’t actually wrapped any presents yet. Scratch that, I’ve wrapped one present, but that was super early because my best friend was in town for Thanksgiving, but wouldn’t be in town for Christmas so I wanted to give her […]
When I was growing up we always had a real Christmas tree. Every year we went out to a farm, or stopped by one of the little groves that popped up or one of the stores and picked out a tree. It was a lot of fun, especially when we cut down our own. Christmas […]
We got our first Christmas card the other day. I haven’t put it up yet because I haven’t decided where it should go. I’m thinking maybe over the fireplace. I also need to dig out my sticky tack ball that Twirls imparted to me after graduation. And by imparted I mean she left it behind […]
Welcome, dear friends, to this years Christmas series! It is very gloomily raining outside and not feeling very Christmasy at all, but we’ll make the best of it, as you do in Western PA, where it could snow on Thanksgiving and rain on Christmas and then Snow on Easter, just because. It really is very […]
Good morning friends! Welcome to the holiday season! I’m going to get into some Christmasy things here soon, I promise, but this morning I’m just going to go on a little bit of a ramble because we’ve had a bit of a cat scare and I’m getting a late start on everything today. So last […]
Today I am thankful for lazy days to stay home and not put real pants on. Technically today isn’t a truly lazy day as I have some cleaning and stuff to do, but just the fact that I have the option of not going outside or getting dressed like a real human is so nice after […]
Good morning friends! Pittsburgh is covered in fog today. And I do mean covered. Like we left an hour ago in the fog and I just got home in the fog and all the way to Logan’s work was just fog. I went up to get coffee at Dunkin Donuts, as I often do on […]
Today I am thankful for warm fuzzy things. This is all I want from today really, just to sit in my comfy chair with my fuzzy blanket and my fuzzy cats and be warm. This really is the best part about cool weather. I get to pull out all the blankets and all the fuzzy […]
Today I am thankful for my house. I know, it’s not really my house, but I am thankful for the house that we get to live in via paying someone else to live here. I am so thankful for God’s providence in bringing us here and all the things that went into our getting this […]
