Yup, def not busy here.

You guys…not to get on a soapbox or anything, but I came across this article the other day and it REALLY spoke to me. This whole busy concept just really blows my mind. I hear this phrase so much around me and honestly, I really dislike it. It’s like everyone is trying to “out busy” each other – that being busy defines you and makes you a better person. And that if you aren’t crazy busy, then you aren’t being a productive member of society, that you aren’t successful. UGH.

Haircuts over the years - cultivatedrambler.comLooks a little different, eh? I decided it was time for a good old face lift for my blog since I’m into my 8th year! Just like my hair style changes with the times, so should my blog. Am I right ladies? It’s a work in progress, but I’m headed in a new, fantastic direction.

Check out my ‘about page‘ to see how I thought up this new name. I think I like it šŸ™‚ Oh, and I also decided to jump ship to WordPress from Blogger. I’ve been with Blogger since 2007 but much prefer the WordPress interface. I use it a lot at work and definitely started crushing on it HARD. Having a self hosted blog is very mature if you ask me!

But even though there are some changes, you’ll still find the same old me here. Same content. Same attitude. I hope you enjoy the new look ‘n feel! Lemme know what you think!

I’m sure if you reside in the PNW, you’ve seen this article cross your social media feed as of late.

I’m a bit of a nervous nelly when it comes to natural disasters – I didn’t need this story to get me fretting! Living in an earthquake zone that has not “seen the big one” yet makes you kinda think sometimes. Not to mention the lovely Mt. Rainier that we can see from our front yard that could blow her top any day now. Oh and/or a zombie apocalypse. OK, so maybe not real zombies, but some sort of health/medical disaster. Ugh. My mind can be quite morbid at times.

But at the same time, I’m not one of those ultimate preppers who digs a bunker in their backyard and stockpiles large amounts of food. I like to think of myself as self-sufficient gal who could take care of her family for a week without outside help if need be.

So here’s how I break it down: (more…)

Seriously. What a band of misfits! This is my third season playing intramural softball through Underdog Sports Leagues and I love it. It’s great getting to know new people and brushing the rust off of those batting skills. Wish I could say the same thing about my fielding, but hey, you can’t win ’em all. We play Sunday afternoons on various crappy fields around Seattle. If you are ever in the mood for a lil entertainment, come and check us out!

Celebrated a few special people’s birthdays over the weekend – Grandma & Walter! Got all fancy-like and went to to the hottest restaurant in Lacey, Terrace Falls šŸ˜‰ Took the opportunity with the new camera to get some family shots as you can never have too many of those. Good times with good family!
