Mrs. Enginerd - Nerd Whisperer
In my quest for ideas to execute during my layoff, I came across a few posts on how to remodel bathrooms for less than a certain amount of money. Pinterest posts and ads from major home repair and supply stores focused on updating bathrooms that were in working order and could be redone with a […]
Books tend to find me… I was at the airport waiting for my flight to San Francisco (June 2015) when a Hudson Booksellers caught my attention. They had a buy two get the third book free sale but because of the short flight ahead, my interest was on acquiring just one book. A quick read. […]

I am the bridge between Generation X and the Millennials, not quite fitting in both sharing characteristics of both. I was brought into a world at war with drugs, the Russians and the Middle East; […]
Chalkboard paint is the it item of the 2015 DIY arts and crafts projects. You can make pretty much anything with it, from labels in containers to full size room walls to draw to your heart’s content. My husband, W (Mr Enginerd and ultimate beer drinker), collects all the bottle caps from open bottles in […]
I got the layoff notice on Jan 16, 2015. Friday evening around 2pm. My first thought was relief. There was a chance, small but real, that this would be resolved by March 20th. Awaiting the inevitable, for better or worse, I decided to make a list of things to do while I was waiting for […]
Ten years ago I was a blissful new hire at one of the world’s great aerospace companies. I had placed every single item I owned in a box and convinced my college sweetheart to venture with me into the Pacific Northwest. Little did I know that after a few bumps and severe turbulence I’d be […]
