About this blog

I don't know why you're here, but I'm here because life is easier when you share. That applies to playtime with toys and also thoughts and feelings. Sharing your experiences and unique perspective on life makes everyone feel less alone.

I've never been very good at sharing unless I'm talking about myself, so a blog is a perfect place for that. You can share too, but only if you're nice. If you're mean, you can just go home right now.

In defense of mason jars

So you've decided to do it yourself. Let's take a moment to make sure this is a good idea. Image source My wedding DIY journey went something like this: 1. Book the venue 2. Ask for referral for a florist 3. Set up phone call with florist and fiance 4. Florist says the "bare minimum" will be about $4,000 5. Politely tell the florist to go fuck him or her self 6. Decide to just do it all yourself 7. Do it all myself 8. Die Ok, that might be a bit dramatic. Actually, I don't think it's dramatic enough. There were way more steps until I got to number 8. Image source If you're going to do the flowers and decorations and everything yourself, you need a few things:  1. The will to spend 97% of your free time working on them until your wedding 2. At least one friend/family member/bridesmaid that is willing to do all your bidding 3. More money than you'd expect, but definitely less than if you pay someone else to do it Doi...
