Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Installing New Flooring (March 2010)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #5 – Sociability

Okay, let’s resume the series I started before we left for Mexico where I write about some of the major things that have impacted the person I am today. The first four were my parents, my friends, books and travel (I won’t link to them here as I’ll probably do a master list at the […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – One Week Ago Today (February 2019)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #4 – Travel

Not sure if I’ll end up blogging much when we’re in Mexico next week but I thought making “travel” #4 in this series would be a good way to head into our holiday either way. The funny part is that my love of travel actually starts from a weird piece of family trivia – I […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #3 – Books

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Walk Through of Our Room at Moon Palace, Cancun (February 2018)

So in exactly one month, we’ll be on our way to Cancun…but who’s counting? (Well, I guess I’m counting, especially since the weather’s been -40 recently!) Anyhow, I finally got around to uploading another room walk-through video from our resort last year. I always have intention to do something a bit more professional/polished on our […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Read (June 2010)
