It’s all personal
I'm Kim and I have a few blogs (and perhaps an issue with over sharing, and too much time on my hands). My other two projects are www.fiftyfiftyvision.com and www.thisisplanbe.com. I also tweet at https://twitter.com/TheKimTackett and instagram at http://instagram.com/kimtackett. But here, it's all personal. I show up once a week, sometimes less, never more. I don't have a niche or a purpose or a plan. Just a few stories and pictures. Welcome to my personal space.I write about stuff

don’t get too close
Or I will sneeze all over you. And it won’t be pretty. That’s what I get for mocking Steve and his wimpy little cold last week. Excuse me while I wipe down the screen and everything else around me.
oh yes, she did
We spent the weekend on a new project…part of the ongoing series, Home Improvement: One Crappy Corner at a Time. The big reveal will come later this week. But just in case you were curious…it involved this color. Yes, it … Continue reading

autumn-ish in the arboretum
Friday afternoon I wandered over to the UC Davis arboretum to see if fall had arrived yet. It’s on its way for sure. But in a brown-not-yet-orange way. It’s subtle, or tired, however you want to frame it. At any … Continue reading

how does a family of three pile up so many dishes so quickly?
Yup, that’s all I have for you today. I tell you, one misstep with the dishwasher, one skipped cycle and there they are, dishes and cups and wine glasses and coffee mugs and pots and pans, all queued up with … Continue reading
strange love
I found this on Pinterest, and while it’s not 100% accurate (I don’t think of myself as strange, but I do think I am a little whack-a-doodle), it still spoke to me. You know, that part where we think we … Continue reading
