Sorry I've been remiss in keeping up with my blog lately--things have been hectic beyond words the last couple weeks--wrapped up the end of the school year; refrigerator quit when a transformer blew out, which made me rely on others (and the commitophobes all screamed AAGH!) to shuffle food around; had to clean out, clean off, and make room for fridge exchange; bought a house...
What's that, you say?
It's true, my lovelies, I have made one of the most ginormous commitments one can make--my very own first house! Exciting, terrifying, exhilarating, nerve-racking!
The next day I flew to the East Coast for 5 days with my mother and Tough Cookie and her middle school friends.
Haven't slept much the past several days, and last night caught 11:15 pm flight to Chicago from pdx, then to Baltimore, arrival at 9-something am. Bus ride to DC-->Smithsonian (American History) for Abe Lincoln's stuff (way cool!) then literal jog to Holocaust Memorial Museum. Itty bitty shoes and mountain of human hair. Suddenly being tired and stressed seems an extremely petty complaint. Next, meet my sister (who just moved to DC) for dinner at Union Station and off to evening tour of WWII Memorial, Jefferson Monument, and something else I can't remember.
I'm a little tired.
It's now after 11 pm and I just now got to take a shower for the first time since yesterday afternoon, haven't slept for a very long time, and I'm glorying in the smooth clean yumminess of freshly brushed teeth. But I'm safe, half my family is with me, we're well and on vacation.
And I bought a house! Me. I'm a home owner.
Wow.
God is good.
Don't forget to watch the Troopathon tomorrow and donate to help the troops!
