Five years ago.. If you would have asked me five years ago what my five year plan was, I would have told you a whole list of things that I hoped and dreamed for myself because, well, I am a planner. At times, I have even been a dreamer. Ironically enough, one of the things that would not have been on …

I love a good fixer upper project, especially one done around my house. There is just something so satisfying about being able to take a piece of furniture, a room, or a living space and bring it back to life with a little, or a lot, of work. Somehow, in moving out on my own and acquiring family furniture, I …
