About

ME: Huntsville, AL/Sardis Lake, MS. She/her. Mama. Fur mama. Daydream believer. Weather nerd/pluviophile. Etsy seller. DIY/MIY. Fascinated by things that go bump in the night. Vintage & kitsch enthusiast. Music is my boyfriend. Sweet tea flows through my veins. Loud music and the open road soothe my soul. I love to lose myself in books. Storms and stars are two of my favorite things.

THIS BLOG: This is my personal blog, where I’ve got a bit of everything that interests me here as well as an absurd amount of Blog Hops. It’s not always family friendly, but I still hope it might someday grow into a unique lifestyle blog.

Summer of 1983. I was an awkward, not quite teenager sporting braces, camp counselor-looking clothes, and a Deb Bradshaw-esque side pony. My dog Tuffy, was such a good girl. You can’t see them in the photo, but her eyes were so blue! #tbt #throwbackthursday #1983

Look, @justlaurahere! I found this pic of us from a show in 2011 for #waybackwednesday. I can’t wait to see you next weekend! I can’t believe it’s almost been two years since I’ve been to Atlanta - or seen you. #minivacay #roadtrip #weekendgetaway

Happy Father’s Day to all you wonderful dads out

Happy Father’s Day to all you wonderful dads out there! I see you working so hard to provide for your families, loving and raising your children (or having already done so), and hope you’re all having the most wonderful day letting your children celebrate YOU!

Sending extra love to those who have lost your father, children, or otherwise don’t have celebratory relationships with them.

Today, I’m celebrating the men who made me who I am.

The first photo is the last one I have of my Dad before he passed away in 2017. He introduced me to a lot of cool music at an early age. One of my favorite childhood memories is of being woken up around 10:30 on Friday nights so I could watch The Midnight Special. Anyone remember that? He’s also where I got my love of fast cars, and Cheech and Chong and Troma movies.

The second is of his father, my Papaw Miller. I sure do miss Saturday mornings watching Scooby Doo and then Memphis Wrestling with him!

Next is my Mom’s dad, Pop Taylor. He loved and spoiled his grandchildren, and his constant companion was his cat Ruby, who actually outlived him. He retired from a luggage factory, had a huge garden, and was an amazing cook. When I first. started staying by myself during the summer, I’d walk across the road to his house, and he’d make me a sandwich and we’d watch Days Of Our Lives.

The fourth pic is one of the only ones I have of my stepdad, who didn’t have any kids and raised me as his own from nine years on. He always took me to the river to run trot lines, threw a ball with me, and eventually taught me to shoot a gun even though I never could bring myself to go hunting. He’s slowed down a lot from his outdoorsman days, but is still a huge sports fan (Hail State! (The only time I will ever say that!). Go, Cowboys!) and one of the best cooks I know. He also bore the brunt of my wildly challenging pre-teen and teenage years, so I feel somewhat responsible for the grumpy man he’s become!

All four of these men proudly served our country in various branches of the military.

The last ones are more of my Dad. Love and miss you so much, Daddy!

Believe it or not, this IS the face of someone who is overjoyed that the work day is over! (And who also just picked up goodies from Crumbl Cookies...)

This is a perfectly acceptable lunch, right? #tgi

I actually wasn’t a troublemaker as a child, but you’d never know that by looking at this pic of me with a supervillain grin, side-eye, and gleefully rubbing my hands together! I would also like to point out that I was apparently a good twenty years ahead of the slouch sock game. #throwbackthursday #tbt

I finally Voila’d myself (at least a week late to the party, as always!). Not sure which I like better.
