. . . I am planning to win the HGTV Dream Home in Park City, Utah. I think it will make a great vacation home.
. . . the Momento app for iphone rocks my world. It's like a scrapbook/journal in the palm of my hand. {contented sigh}. Lately, it's been so helpful as I put together the weekly layouts in my project life album. I jot a few notes during the day about things we did, my feelings, observations . . . I write down funny quotes from the kids (from Conner: "While I wait I think I'll just do some planking") . . . and it automatically slurps in my FB status updates and instagram posts and displays everything in lovely chronological order.
. . . without a doubt "embrace" is the right word for me this year. Sometimes learning to embrace change also means embracing the change within the change that gets thrown on top of the change. Lost? Ya, me too sometimes.
. . . Scott just finished a 24 week nutrition/exercise program with a trainer and has lost 42 pounds! He looks smokin'. The other day he shared that Rick (his trainer) says this is usually the point in the program when he gets a thank you from the wife. Well then, maybe I need to send a thank you.
. . . we are moving in 4 weeks. Yes, it is real. 28 days people! Enough is enough with waiting around for this short sale to happen. Scott signed a lease on a 3-bedroom apartment, we're getting bids from moving companies, and I'm selling stuff on Craigslist and amassing a pile for Goodwill. I'm sure there are going to be a flurry of emotions over the next few weeks. After my first blubbering cry over Facetime (as we talked actual moving dates which made it very real) I let Scott know that this is just going to be part of the process for me. I think he understands.
. . . I am getting LASIK at the end of this month. I'm not too nervous. Should I be? I'm only having it done on one eye (the other one is 20/20) so even if they botch it I still have one good eye to fall back on.
. . . I love this photo of Payton. (found while digging through the digital photo archives to write Payton's birthday post)
