Trish's World

It was another busy weekend around here. On Friday Mike & I spent all day cleaning and doing yardwork to get ready for a birthday party we were throwing for my sister on Saturday. We managed to get the yard looking really nice and the inside was all sparkly too. We even managed to get [...]

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 [...]

Thursday night we went to Gallagher’s with some friends. It was awesome and I knocked out some more beers from the list. Check out the link to the right if you want to see what I’ve had so far. And don’t forget to send me some suggestions!
Friday was my super awesome spa day with my [...]

On Friday afternoon, Mike & I decided on a whim to hit Battle Creek and go to Horrock’s. We hadn’t been there in years and it’s a pretty cool store. On the way, I finally got a chance to check out Your Local Yarn Shop on Columbia. Wow, it’s really big, nice, and they have [...]

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 [...]

It wasn’t because of anything [...]

My phone issues are a freaking nightmare. I got a new phone yesterday, it has the same problems as the last one, plus none of my phone numbers are there! I’m very disappointed. I’m working with the dudes at the store to get the problems fixed, hopefully it will be soon!!
Just made this yesterday! I [...]

Mike woke me up around 5 this morning (he was getting ready for bed) because he noticed that the wall underneath our bedroom window was all wet. He pulled off the trim to get a closer look, and there is a gap between the drywall and the window frame. Which is so not cool. So [...]

Well we made an offer on a house on Monday night. We got a counter offer yesterday morning, and we counter countered or whatever the fancy lingo is. This was our final offer, anjd we are supposed to have an answer by tomorrow at 4. I really like the place, and I think it’s a [...]

First, I spilled coffee on my pills this morning. Which sucks because both the coffee AND the pills are ruined. And then I open my email and see this:
Hello Trish,
I regret to inform you that your image of Faneuil Hall which I requested permissions to reproduce for our May issue, has been cut from our [...]
