Off to the PNW
Soon very soon.. kind of not soon enough I’m off again to the grand old Pacific Northwest. Michelle is (finally) turning 30! To celebrate the occasion we’re going to the coast and having a 3 day girly weekend plus a couple days in Portland too. Cooking, drinking, watching stupid movies, roasting marshmallows, walking by the...
Like Cows We Gathered to the Artifact. Maybe We Were Bored.
The funk has slightly lifted. Still feeling a touch funky but sitting outside for an hour yesterday afternoon feeling actual warm sun on my back seems to have helped a bit. The additional cheese making supplies have arrived and I’m excited to start the next one, feta. I’m slowly working my way up to the...
Wisconsin
Whut..? I have a lot to say today. Gimme a break! Monday we made a trip up to Milwaukee to meet up with my folks to sign some legal papers, estate, wills etc. Bunch of morbid complicated stuff that I don’t fully understand. We’re at the attorney’s office going through the giant binders of papers...
Oh and another thing..
I’m Portland bound again to go to a Halloween party at the Franklin’s humble abode. Mr. Franklin sent me a text message asking if I wanted to come out and surprise the misses and attend their fantastic 2nd annual Halloween bash. I bought my tickets and am on my way in a month! Now I...
The recap
Back from Virginia. The wedding was beautiful. I couldn’t listen to any of the vows or readings or look at anyone because I am a total sap and would start bawling uncontrollably. What I did see and hear was great. Charlottesville is beautiful and all the old friends and other people I met were so...
Almost vacation time again
Friday morning we leave for Virginia for the Floyd-Magill wedding. I can’t wait. I’ve never been to Charlottesville. I’ve heard great things about it. Adam and I haven’t taken a vacation together since our honeymoon. We aren’t going for very long but it’ll still be a nice break. When we get back I’ll post some...
Right around the corner
In a week I will be in the glorious misty Pacific Northwest. So excited! I was up before the sun this morning and have already put in an hour and a half of work. It’s crazy how much more motivated I am these days. Work is way more interesting when you’re doing it for yourself. ...
9 Days!
9 Days til Portland! I can’t believe it. Time flies so fast when you’re old. I’m really excited to go on a trip and see some new scenery. Though the past couple days have been absolutely amazing here. All the trees are budding and the grass is getting green again. I’m just really happy to...
Week In Review…
Well last Saturday was my friend Carina dear’s birthday. The hubby, the pup and I drove up to the great white north. Had a few Guinesses, it was St. Patrick’s Day after all, played some bar dice and generally had a great time. Sunday– The puppies bit at each other endlessly.. Adam and I went...
Yippee Skippy
Only 27 days until I go to the Rose City. I can’t wait to drink some wine and get some quality girl time. I haven’t left the city for non-family related purposes (except the honeymoon trip) in way too long. I haven’t been to Portland since 2005 (3/26- I just realized I haven’t been out...
so content and excited
so content and excited! Yippee! The wedding is over, a wonderful day but I am happy to just be married instead of thinking about being married and planning the wedding. It’s much better to finally be here in this amazing place. Spent the last week with the hubby in Montreal which was so...
