mini crisis, fine dining and goodwill steals

It has been the busiest two weeks of my life. I finally positioned myself mentally to get a grip this morning, so I am back at it. Back to the day-to-day but hopefully without the mini-crisis every couple hours. I think its been a mix of my strained back interfering with my exercise routine, a whirlwind of summertime festivities, while being dragged back into our business scene. I was almost freed from such obligations when we hired outside help, but the help turned out to need my help. I never could get too far from the office, so now I am back in the books. I will deal. I will.

Last week I had the most fun in a long while. My sister, Amber came to visit! Sometimes when I am around my sisters, I see a reflection of myself, and/or my mother. It is quite interesting at times, but isn't it great to be around people who you have so much in common with? In mannerism, interests...and looks? It is always such great bonding time. I just wish we all lived in the same vicinity. As I said on Face Book after I dropped Amber off at the airport, I think it should be against family rule to live in different states. Seriously.


Ambs and I had a delightful time together. Over the next couple posts I'll show you what we were up to. We are happenin' girls, so the week we were together was overflowing with ideas, places, and activities--from blueberry picking, and sewing projects galore, to fine dining and Goodwill steals. Top that off with some homemade vanilla ice cream and blueberry pie and a sweet visit to Saint Cupcake. It's a tradition that I take each visiting family member to Portland's very best cupcake shop.

Hope things are going well in your neck of the woods!

“You must write every single day of your life... You must lurk in libraries and climb the stacks like ladders to sniff books like perfumes and wear books like hats upon your crazy heads... may you be in love every day for the next 20,000 days. And out of that love, remake a world.” ― Ray Bradbury
