February 26, 2019 Jenny6 Comments

Hi friends! Hope you had a nice weekend. Ours was great - it was warm and sunny. We spent a decent amount of time outside - walked on South Congress Saturday afternoon and at a park Sunday. I hadn't been back to South Congress in a long time, and it's changed a LOT. It bums… Continue reading A Quick Update So I’m Not Late

Why Is It Still Winter?

February 11, 2019 Jenny3 Comments

Good morning friends! I hope you are doing well! The weather has been really gross here lately - raining and in the 30-40s. The weather was lovely the weekend before - warm, hints of sun. I went for a hike with friends and didn't have to wear a jacket. I went for a run last… Continue reading Why Is It Still Winter?

Update – Fighting a Cold with MITTENS

January 15, 2019January 15, 2019 Jenny4 Comments

Hi friends! At least it's the middle of January now. Ergh, January. I first saw this cartoon a couple of years ago, but this sums up how I move through the month pretty well: We had a couple of days last week where the weather was sunny and in the 70s - I felt great!… Continue reading Update – Fighting a Cold with MITTENS

A Cozy Weekend and Squishy Blanket Makes

This weekend I had a hard time studying. I studied for 3 hours on Saturday and 3.5 hours Sunday. The weather was rainy and cozy this weekend, and though this should have helped me get more into study mode, I really wanted to be doing other things. We did a little bit of shopping on… Continue reading A Cozy Weekend and Squishy Blanket Makes

I know it's only Monday, but is it Friday yet? Most of my mental energy has been occupied by work and wedding planning. But I've had some time to sneak in some crafting. As usual, there is not any real kind of logic to what I'm doing and why. And of course, right when I… Continue reading Wedding Procrastination Part 2: Craft Mania

A Tale of Two Cowls

November 26, 2017 Jenny4 Comments

I was having lunch today with a couple of friends, both who had lived northeast for awhile but had migrated back down to Texas. "It's weird that it's the holiday season and we're all in shorts," one of them said. And that's pretty much what fall and winter is like in Texas. Eighty degrees?

I’m Back!

April 23, 2017April 23, 2017 JennyLeave a comment

HEY GUYS!!!! I'm back! My test is done! It was on Friday. It's a pretty intense experience - 8 hours of testing, 100 questions. It was open-book and you can bring in whatever references you want. It was pretty wild to see everyone wheeling around their carry-on bags full of books (myself included). I actually… Continue reading I’m Back!
