stuff yo

So here are a few things.
1. I got a new-to-me refrigerator. It has a freezer on the bottom. My grandmothers both had freezers on the bottom before it was cool and I have wanted one ever since. It is revolutionary. My in-laws moved to Louisiana last month and ended up with 3 refrigerators. So we got this one. Hurray!

 2. We went to visit said in-laws in Louisiana. I don't know why, maybe it is all those books by Rebbecca Wells that I love. Or maybe it is because one of my most favorite vacations ever was taken in Louisiana, or maybe it is because there seem to be Mother Mary's at every turn. But I love that state. Someday, maybe when I am gray headed and sowing my wild oats at last, I will move there and write fiction.





3. School starts Monday. Yes, we have a short year. Yes, this year it feels particularly short. I don't know why. Maybe it has something to do with the earth's gravitational pull in the future. I am excited to get back the routine, to see all the kids, to learn new things my self. But this year I am hoping to do a little more momma-care. Like going to Water Zumba and the thrift stores. By myself. In the evening. We shall see.
This weekend we have Open House at the school on Saturday and I am hosting a wedding shower (Alice in Wonderland theme!) Sunday. After I recover from all that, plus the first day of school, I promise to be a better blogger!Thank you for sticking around.
much loveJ
