That word pretty much sums up my weekend. I did a whole bunch of nothing. Do you ever feel like doing absolutely nothing? I didn’t even feel like knitting. I did a little, though. Most of the weekend was me parked on the couch watching tv doing nothing. I have to admit it was nice … Continue reading →

Yes, I did fall off the face of the earth. It’s weird how completely changing your regular schedule will really mess you up. As I mentioned before I left, I spent the last two weeks in Dallas for work. Basically, I’m a recruiter for a college, so I spend time in the fall in various … Continue reading →

It’s going to be hard to adequately capture the last couple of days in words and pictures, but I’m going to try. This timeline starts out Sunday afternoon and continues through Monday. Make sure you “read more” to see all the pictures and such! 3:30 p.m. I got in my car and headed to the … Continue reading →

I just got in last night and am exhausted but in such a good way. We had so much fun! I have so many stories and pictures and such, but won’t be able to get them up here until tonight. I just had to let you know as soon as possible that things went wonderfully! … Continue reading →
