Leaving on a Jet Plane


Well, I'm headed out West friends. I know you're crying in your cornflakes because it means I won't be posting very much. Wait...that's no different than normal. 

I keep meaning to come here and talk to you but the living of life has just gotten in the way of writing about life.

The dessert table I was putting together and decorating for a wedding...done.

A really large presentation for a design client...done. And maybe when I get back I'll have word that they're ready to get started!

So where am I off to?


The smalls and I are flying out to california to celebrate my grandparent's 30th wedding anniversary.
Wes has to stay behind and work, so it's going to be a 'girl's only' trip...with my mom joining us from virginia. I am beyond excited to go back to where a large piece of my heart lives.

I'll get to see aunts and uncles, cousins, cousin's kids to play with my girls, and of course my grandparents...who don't know even know we're coming! 

And even if I didn't know a soul in SoCal, I would get on the plane to go there just because the weather is going to be THIS:


 










AM Clouds / PM Sun AM Clouds / PM Sun AM Clouds / PM Sun Sunny Sunny Sunny Sunny Sunny Sunny Sunny










75°F  76° 77° 79° 81° 79° 77° 78° 77° 77°        












See you later gators!

keep on keepin' on

I really should have had better time management in school. Every time I have a project or a trip coming up, I start having flashbacks of that waiting-till-the-last-second feeling, even if everything is going smoothly and I do actually have plenty of time to complete what needs to get done. And then I get all antsy and frazzled and it manifests itself in irrational ways...like when I tried to sort out my un-matched sock basket today and when it wasn't working I threw it down and yelled "Where the hell are all the other socks!! Who can LIVE like this!!?? To myself. In the closet. And then I threw them all out. Straight to the trashcan. It's summer. Who needs socks. We are now a sandals-only family. If it was good enough for Him, it's good enough for us. 

I'm going to get some alone time today while Wes watches the girls. I have to go to a craft store to get some supplies for the dessert and candy table I'm decorating at a wedding this weekend. And then I'll do what I do every time I get to go out by myself...drive around giddy with freedom and wondering what I'll do with all this time, and deciding where to go until my time has run out and all I've really done is get a diet coke and waste gas. But a diet coke enjoyed with an empty backseat is the sweetest of all ;)
