Trish's World

First things first – I updated my beer list. It had been a while, so there are lots of new ones listed. I’ve had 75 beers! Only 225 to go!! We are heading out tonight so I can cross off a few more.
Last Friday we went to Grand Rapids to help Alexis celebrate her graduation. [...]

I don’t know if I mentioned it here or not, but I’ve been doing quite a bit of drawing and painting for the last couple of months. My BFF Amber gave me an art table a few months ago, and I decided to give it a go since I have some time on my hands. [...]

It’s been a while, and I know, I’m totally lame. I’ve actually been pretty busy for a jobless waif!
Houseboating last weekend was awesome as always! I didn’t take many pics because the landscape really hasn’t changed, plus it was rainy and/or overcast for most of the trip this time. The weather has been better, but trust [...]

We had a busy weekend, but it was good. I was so tired when I went to bed last night I didn’t even read first, I just collapsed.
Friday afternoon we went to Noah’s school for a music program. It was very cool. They sang a song about a bull and acted out different parts with [...]

On Monday I had my hands-on training at the thrift shop. I was all excited, and I got all ready and then stepped outside to bring the garbage & recycle bins up from the driveway because it was garbage day. As I got to the end of the driveway, I notice a lady standing there [...]

Wow, it seems like there really isn’t too much going on latelt that I want to post about. Mostly because I have been completely wrapped up in the Southern Vampire series of books. These are the Sookie Stackhouse books that the show True Blood is based on. I’ve had them for a while but wasn’t [...]

Wow, Mike & I had kind of a crazy weekend. Like the kind you have when you’re 23 and full of energy and can drink unlimited quantities of beer and liquor and still function the next day. Except we toned it down a little since we’re in our early thirties.
We bought a grill (FINALLY!!) on [...]

My birthday was really really fun. First, I got flowers! I saw the delivery guy pull in the driveway and I assumed he must have been turning around, but then he got out & came to the door! He had a lovely arrangement of bright yellow daylilies and pale green roses. The card said “Happy [...]

Happy Blogiversary to me!!! Yesterday was the 7th anniversary of Trish’s World. Can you believe it? I’m not sure I do. What have I been babbling about for 7 years? 7 years, 7 deadly sins. Coincidence?
After a looong debacle involving several different worker dudes here for many different days, my tub is finished! As of [...]

On Friday night we realized that the tub in the master bathroom has a crack on it. We figured this out because we were downstairs watching TV and noticed some weird wet spots on one of the drop ceiling tiles. I’m not sure if I mentioned here that we also recently noticed that the shower [...]
