The Den
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on May 8th 2008
So…. remember the other day when I painted the den and you were guessing colors? I finally remembered to take some pics…..
This room was once intended to be Suki’s room…. of course, she was in college when we bought this house so she never really used it. Last year when she got her own apartment, [...]
The “Folder”
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on May 4th 2008
Yesterday morning - I whipped everyone into a frenzy of cleaning, which required some serious effort and a few stern looks. After we’d finished, a little voice in my head started whispering that I should paint the den. It was a great day to paint - I didn’t really have anything else planned and it [...]
Plans? We don’t need no stinkin plans…
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Apr 1st 2008
When my husband and I first started dating, he was very much a “planner”. He liked to plan everything. He had lists about his plans … what he wanted to do around the house, movies he planned to see, whatever. As a matter of fact, I wasn’t real sure if there would be an “us” [...]

Beebo is not really my second child’s [...]
The Man Question
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Mar 24th 2008
I realized something Sunday morning, in a moment of total clarity…. and I’ve sort of thought about it off and on ever since. So, your hearing it here first: I now know what it must be like to be a man! No, I didn’t suddenly start wishing I could sit around watching March Madness or [...]
You just gotta love him
Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Mar 17th 2008
If there is one thing that drives me nuts - it’s someone messing with MY stuff! If you need to USE my hair brush, my hair dryer, my anything … go for it. It’s ok. I don’t mind. No really, I don’t. But, pleeease, if you’re GOING to use it, please PUT IT BACK where [...]
