I would like to offer a million apologies to our readers and to Coralie. I have been M.I.A. for the last two weeks: no posts, no #waybackwwednesday, no nuffin’. There is just something about being back in Georgia that makes a… Continue Reading
Okay, like I promised- here is the 2nd half to my 2 part series on Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Alabama. Last week I outlined my favorite places to eat if you find yourself on the… Continue Reading
Y’all. I do believe I have just experienced a 5 month time warp! This has been the fastest winter of my life! I am sure that those that live further North than me would not agree- particularly those who have… Continue Reading
Bub and I just got back last week from Dallas. We went for AdvoCare’s Success School. This year, rather than flying and renting a car when we got there- we drove… all 650 miles out there and all 650 miles back.… Continue Reading
Y’all. Bub, Baby Bub and I took a little family vacay to Charleston weekend before last. My dear friend Lori and her fiancé, John, were throwing an elopement party on a paddleboat. The story was that they were going to have… Continue Reading
This past Friday, Josh and I celebrated our one-year L.A.nniversary. We have lived in Southern California for a full year. The flexibility of my perception of time makes this occasion both surprising and kind of trippy. One year. This year has seen a lot.… Continue Reading
Can you hear that? What?! You don’t hear the trumpets?! You can’t see the confetti?! Well, let me tell you… it’s a veritable Carnivale over here at FTTDWYW. Cause, you know what? This week is our one-year blogaversary! Fun Things To Do… Continue Reading
[spotify track=”spotify:track:0lTrunYU4xo46shJeK9Xjp”] If asked to describe Vegas in one word, I would first ask why someone was asking, but then (after thinking) would have to answer, “surreal.” Vegas is literally the antithesis of reality. An adult Disney World rising out of the middle of… Continue Reading
I would like to offer my apology to (apparently) everyone in the Northern Hemisphere who isn’t in Southern California. I’m so sincerely sorry. Between Polar Vortexes and Winter Storm Leon, things are looking pretty chilly for most of the people in… Continue Reading
I am so excited to share with y’all another great guest post today. Our friend, Holly brings us another great, thoughtful post about a fantastic social/media experience that she and her family were chosen in which to participate. You may remember Holly from her amazing… Continue Reading
After an amazing, yet exhausting holiday season back in Georgia I hopped on a 7 p.m., 4.5-hour flight back to LA yesterday. Since travel days typically involve airports, packing, and goodbyes they are generally pretty crummy. Although my day yesterday had… Continue Reading
Parting really is such sweet sorrow. As excited as I am about returning to Cali (especially with the cold snap sweeping every part of the nation EXCEPT California), leaving home always breaks my heart. Whether I’ve stayed a week or… Continue Reading
This is the second to last ’88-Day Challenge’ post. There are really only two weeks and some change left in 2013. Let that sink in. Remember, 74 days ago… when I was all like, “the time will fly… why not start… Continue Reading
I am a list maker by practice. I come from a family of list makers and thrive on the act of checking/crossing off something from my list. Kids these days put their lists on various electronic devices… and I get… Continue Reading

Well, yes it is. I must admit that I do… Continue Reading
Ashley McGough is an old friend of mine (Coralie) from Auburn. He and his roommate and I worked together and looked after each other for most of the time I lived in Auburn. I was very excited when Ashley agreed to do… Continue Reading
Moving to another city is hard. Especially if it’s on the other side of the country. 99.9% of the time, I’m super glad to have moved to California. But, there is that 0.01% of the time when I get a little sad… Continue Reading
As I alluded to in the introduction on the book report I posted last night, Bub and I spent a 4 day weekend in Dallas this past weekend. We went for Success School but added an extra day to our… Continue Reading
My Grandmother is an avid letter writer. One of my favorite types of letters she would construct would be to break out a legal pad and a pen and pass it around to everyone at a gathering and ask each… Continue Reading
