I know I’ve basically disappeared for the last two months, if not most of the winter, but it is for good reason – We’re moving! I’m sure you hadn’t already figured that out from the title and the image 😉 Most people that know us personally take the “We’re Moving” conversation as a […]
A Tour through Blogland at Puddy’s House
Happy Monday! I’ve seen many tours through Blogland posted lately, and when Amy at Always Never Done asked me to participate, I jumped at the chance! Amy and I have basically been on this blogging journey together, ever since we went to our first Haven Conference and got the bug to change from just DIYers […]
Celebrating Year Two
Today marks my second blogging anniversary! Sometimes I can’t believe how fast time goes, and then sometimes I feel like I’ve been blogging forever. I feel that way when I think how far I’ve come since I wrote my first post. The fun part is to look back on it all. I enjoy having my […]
Haven 2014
If you have been reading Puddy’s House for a while, you know that my blog was created after attending the Haven Conference in 2012. Haven is like the mecca for DIY bloggers. I had to go back in 2013, and of course returned again this year. The conference is held for 3 days in Atlanta, […]
Winter Blogging Blues
So, you may have noticed a bit of silence on the blog here….sorry, it wasn’t intentional! Apparently, I have the winter blogging blues. I looked back in my archives and discovered it hit me last year too. Last year, I was lucky that we had the bar tiling to work on, but I also wrote […]
Julius Sturgis Pretzel Factory
Over the last few weeks, I was working behind he scenes on Puddy’s House. I tackled the blog conversion from WordPress.com to WordPress.org by myself and survived. And, I think I got everything transferred correctly! But, if you find anything on the blog that is not correct, please let me know. I still have plenty of technical […]
Haven 2013
Last week, I spent 3 days in Atlanta at the Haven Conference. You would think that a 3-day conference would be easy to sum up into a few words and pictures, but it really isn’t. Haven is the one time of year that I don’t have to explain what a blog is, or what DIY […]
Weekend Fun
There was not much time for DIY projects this past weekend, because it was a weekend full of fun! Even though I had to work Friday, I kicked off my weekend on Thursday night. Thursday evening, I traveled to York to meet a group of local bloggers. Many of us are going to the upcoming Haven Conference […]
Life and a Little DIY
We spent the long holiday weekend at the beach. It was great to get away, but Ocean City, MD was pretty busy because of the holiday. We did our best at just relaxing and enjoying the time away. Bob and I found some time to relax by the pool, hit the beach, and boardwalk, and […]
Balance
This weekend I really began to reflect on the simple word “balance”. Last year, I focused on balance when it came to my exercise. I had previously just focused my workouts on running, but I wanted to change it up and balance my workouts better. And, last year I felt that I was finally able to […]
