Catching my breath
I was going to finish writing about my birthday road trip but I’m having issues with photos coming out all weird when I publish the post. So that will have to wait.
I’ve neglected my blog lately because I’ve been traveling for work…and working hard on the house because my parents are coming out from Oregon for Thanksgiving. I’m looking forward to a week off, hanging out with mom and dad, and catching my breath…tomorrow.
Tonight we’re still running around doing all of those last-minute pre-house guest stuff. They land in just a few hours and we still have to vacuum, mop the floors, return curtains to Pier One, make yet another Target run, and run to the laundr-o-mat for a 2 hour wash-o-rama. And clean the car. And eat dinner. And make the beds.
Why the wash-o-rama at the laundr-o-mat?
I don’t have time to go into the entire washer/dryer saga right now so here’s the short version: we currently have a brand-new, fancy-schmancy front-loading washing machine in our laundry room that we can’t use because our dryer can’t be delivered until Tuesday, which might not matter because the electrician may not be able to come out this week to check the outlet, which we tried to take apart to fix…
I’ll stop here because this is where the story gets long and I’ve got to get going.
