Phew!

I am STILL jet-lagged or just exhausted from all the FUN we had on our trip! We got back late last Thurs. and I returned to work yesterday, so it's back in the swing of things again. Suffice it to say, it was an AWESOME trip and I will post pics and descriptions in the upcoming weeks as I decompress!

Countdown Begins!

We leave for England in less than 48 hours! I'm so excited! It's kind of scary, but the time will go by so quickly and I'm sure we'll have lots of FUN!

Another New Baby

YAY! It'a 2005 Hyundai Elantra with only 30,000 miles on it. It's a salvage, but we have bought several vehicles from our local guy this way and have always been pleased, so I am hopeful that this goes as well as the previous cars!

Exhaustion

YIKES! What a crazy last couple of days! It was looking like I wasn't going to get my passport in the mail in time for my trip. Thank goodness my parents and husband got on the bandwagon and through a lot of help from one of our state representatives office and our county vital statisitcs office, they got it sent out and it is now sitting in St. Cloud, ready to be delivered on Monday. PHEW, thank goodness! I am mentally exhausted from worry and am trying to relax a bit before my trip so I don't wind up getting sick.

Eucalyptus Thyme


Laughter

Back To The Future

...is on cable. I love this movie! I don't think that I actually saw it in the theater, but I do remember watching it when I was in Germany during college (I think it was dubbed in German, too). I think one of the reasons I like it so much is because I did see it in Germany and it reminds me of that awesome time in my life! I did see the sequels in the theater and remember one of my friends being upset becasue the second movie was such a filler and obvious lead in to the the third. But I do love watching them over and over and over!

I LOVE

...SUNFLOWERS! They are such happy flowers! This year promises to be a bumper crop (well, at least for me!) of all sorts of varieties. Here's an early bloomer:






More Soaping

I made 3 more batches on Sunday:

Eucalyptus Thyme

Wake Up - a peppy blend of eo's

Laughter - a scrumptious eo blend, as well.

Some time here I'll get pics posted! Too bad you can't smell them - so yummy!
