Did you make this?

Welcome to Atlanta! Ya know… again!

Christmas on the lanai.

I could watch this for several hours.

This is funnier than you will ever know.

I’m in full Thanksgiving mode. I’m testing recipes, sketching house decoration plans, and shopping for stretchy pants.

It’s beginning to look like Fall at The Kawata Estates & Corporate Tower.

I hate and love this at the same time. Good luck!

I’ve enhanced my awkward yard space by creating a Pink Flamingo garden.

The House Monitor

Lessons in Paul 101. I’ll grill; therefore, I am.

Lawn care supervisors.

A popular biscuit place moved to my neighborhood. If you ever get on my bad side, a gift of one of these will always smooth things over.

I thought growing old would take longer.

Grilling is my love language.

Or… what if we filled this space with kindness, positive energy, and pictures of puppies? Oh, and used proper punctuation and grammar?

My therapy.

Eureka!

To honor the moment, the newly-engaged couple have decided the theme color for their wedding will be powder room blue. Gift bags will include shell-shaped soap you’re not suppose to use.

She knew something was about to happen when he turned off the fan earlier than usual.

It was such a sweet and emotional moment. Not just tears flowed.

Getting on one knee can be painful. But if you’re already sitting down…

A sweet friend of mine planned to propose to his girlfriend in a romantic, elaborate way. When none of his plans came together, he ended up proposing to her in their bathroom.

Thank you, sweet friend. The jokes from this write themselves.
