A Picture Problem

July 19, 2011

I’ve had my Macbook for about 5 years now & it’s served me well, but…well…I’m ready to move on. It’s getting to be a bit slow, some of the plastic has chipped off of the case, it’s dirty, the mouse clicker thing is permanently half-depressed at all times making it difficult to click, and I [...]

Whip my Hair

June 23, 2011

Ever since the wedding, oh, eight months ago, I’ve said nearly every week “I should get a haircut.” But I never did, and my hair just kept growing and growing and then…it kind of became a mess. Please excuse the poor computer-webcam quality of the image.  I’m in the process of learning how to use [...]

Dear Husband…

June 22, 2011

Never. Ever. Allow me to buy lotion again. I don’t care if I’m dying of the plague and I think the only thing that will save me is a new bottle of lotion.  I don’t need it. And you, my love… You are never ever allowed to buy gum again. Ever. We have issues.

Jill of all Trades?

June 17, 2011

Today is my last day of work!!  Scary, but I’m also kinda excited.  It seems like the last day of school and I feel a little lost, like I should have a yearbook for people to sign or something. In honor of my last day of work, I thought I’d put together a post about [...]

Surgery Approval!

April 28, 2011

I just wrote about this on Twitter, but really, seriously, I can’t hold this in. I’m getting my surgery for my sweaty feet!!!  Holy crap! Our insurance provider (Aetna) approved it SO fast that I’m still stunned.  Eleven years ago, it took months of appeals and letters and recommendations and bullying in order to get [...]

Half of a Year!

April 11, 2011

Yesterday marked 6 months since our wedding. Part of me feels SO junior high saying that–”OMG, we’ve been together for 6 months and he hasn’t told me to eff off yet!”  I really  hope I don’t become one of those women who seem to count their lives in months–”my child is 33 months old!” “we’ve [...]

A Little Hope

April 7, 2011

For those of you who know me or followed me closely on Weddingbee, you might know that I suffer from something called Hyperhidrosis.  It’s a very non-life-threatening yet very annoying condition where my hands and feet sweat an abnormal amount. Before my surgery nearly 11 years ago, my hands dripped with sweat 24 hours a [...]

Man Cave Madness

March 27, 2011

Mike and I watch a lot of HGTV, mostly House Hunters and House Hunters International since those are the shows on during the time slots we’re able to watch weekday evenings.  One thing we’re both super peeved about is all of this discussion on how the man of the house needs a “Man Cave.” Source [...]

When the Husband’s Away…

March 7, 2011

The wife will probably do a number of crazy/odd things. Mike is out of town this week on business (only to Virginia, nowhere super exciting unfortunately) and while he’s gone, I find myself doing things that I normally wouldn’t do if he were around.  Don’t get me wrong, I miss him like crazy, but a [...]

Shifting Gears

November 19, 2010

Now that our wedding is over, this website (which was our wedding website) is now going to be our personal blog!  How do you like its face-lift?  I’m still toying with it, so it may change. My first order of duty for this “new” blog is to explain our title:  Married Up With Wine. Many [...]
