Chattanooga Here I Come
BIG NEWS! I’ve accepted a position as children’s librarian at the Chattanooga Public Library, with the (unbound) directive of making awesome things happen with kids ages 0-7. I’ll also work a bit with the older kids too. The Dunn family will be booking a one-way ticket to Tennessee this summer. Why Chattanooga Public Library? After meeting THE Justin Hoenke last […]

Phone Photos
I’m retiring my blackberry at the end of the week. We’ve been together for quite some time now, but the time has come to part ways. This afternoon, I was downloading all the photos from it and thought I would share a few… Apartment view from roof. Park Slope, Brooklyn. Anna Sui, Spring 2008 Will […]

Demise of the Traveling Garden
I’m sorry to report that my Traveling Garden didn’t make the very last leg of the trip. Really is a pity, since they were doing so well until the very end. I mean they made the move from our house in Ludington to Will’s parents house and then from Will’s parent’s house to Kansas City. […]

Summer Shuffle
It’s been awhile. A lot longer than I thought it would take before I would blog again. It was a priority that got lost in the shuffle, but I am here. Here making a regular appearance once again. We’ve finally settled into a somewhat normal, although temporary, routine for the summer. I started my new […]

Over the past week, I’ve been back and forth during the move out of our house on whether or not I would go forward with The Traveling Garden. I’m going to […]

Farewell, little red house. We shared a lot over the year. New beginnings. Joy, anticipation, tears and laughter. Lots of laughter. I brought my baby home to you. This was our living room. It was where my baby learned how to sit up. How to walk. How to crawl. How to smile. And does she […]

At The Inlaws
As of today, we’re completely moved out of our little red house. The keys have been handed over. Nomads for the next couple of months. Currently, we are living with the in-laws. They live outside of town. At night, you can listen to the wind rock the trees. It’s peaceful here. Next weekend we move […]

Window Exit
This is exactly what it looks like. And yes, this is how we got the mattress in the house in the first place. And yes, I didn’t breathe the entire time out of sheer fear. And yes, we know exactly what we’re doing. Well…. sorta. When I was pregnant last summer, the more my tummy […]

So Long For Now, Jolene
Jolene the Sewing Machine will be vacationing in a storage unit over the summer. I thought about it and it just wasn’t practical or realistic to continue on throughout all the moving. I bid her adieu over the weekend….my lessons in sewing to be continued this fall.
