Tuesday I do actually care about you.
This morning before work I headed up to the stacks and then realized I didn't have my tripod and there were people EVERYWHERE! but attempted anyways.
How about this?
Screw it. I grabbed camera before it went off again.
So I went down to my desk. I heard someone moving in the cube next to me. Dang I thought they weren't in yet.
Oh and I had a teal hoodie I ripped off right before that.
But you know what. I kinda love this outfit. A girlie cut dress. Slightly utilitarian boots and a bright scarf.It was literally a case of it was all clean and not planned but I think it is a very ME outfit even if I haven't ever worn a combo exactly like this.
How are you my dears?
I am well. I have had a lot of heartache lately (I lost a 5th family member last week) and it wears you down but I am feeling OK. Seriously I didn't know I could ever do that again a month ago. A really good friend had a baby yesterday and my heart exploded with love. I sent a gift off to my first "nephew" who was born a few weeks ago (oldest friend's bebe. I am an only child so I gotta get it where I can!) yesterday and it felt like a little cosmic happy. Despite all the loss there is always going to be new adorable little life. Dave is insanely busy. For those who are fairly new he went back to school for a degree in architecture and he is in his 6th year and he is supposed to graduate in December! He has been going FULL time and working FULL time for 6 years and the closer the end is the happier I get. (The busier he is unfortunately finishing up his thesis project!) My gram has a mental count down. When ever I talk she says "so its two months and week" She know Dave out of school = we visit more often.
We are planning some sort of graduation trip. We are still in the "where should we go?" stages. We need/want to keep it as cheap as possible but are open to just about anywhere right now. Its so wild to be able to plan things like a vacation. It's been so hard the past 6 years because he was ALWAYS busy. We were throwing the idea of Greece out there this week. It has everything we want fun architecture, completely different than what we've ever done and it has aqua waters which is my only request.I "might" be 1/4 Greek too so that is fun to think about. Have you ever gone anywhere fun and affordable you'd like to recommend? I have been to England, France, Switzerland, Germany, Mexico, Canada, Aruba and Venezuela and Dave went to Amsterdam, Germany, Austria(??) and France in one epic trip and our honeymoon was to the Keys and Mexico and we went to Canada a few years ago. So we are thinking somewhere neither us have been. Food is a BIG concern. We actually are looking for a place we can get an apartment for a week because eating all our meals out is not an option with his Celiac and hypoglycemia. I don't want to go on a GO GO GO vacation. I want to chillax.

he has terrible time management and has been very very sick off an on through out the past few years. Three trips to the ER and countless other visits. He has Celiac Disease on top of it!
Chop busting aside, if I could pick one place for you to vacation, it would be Umbria in Italy. It is Etruscan (Greece only thinks it is old). There is no architecture like in Perugia, and Orvieto is my favorite city anywhere. We based out of Todi and day-tripped.
Depending on the time of year, you might also consider Buenos Aires. It is like a fabulous European city, only in your timezone. It is also cheap, and if you like leather...!
Just a couple thoughts.
No matter, you look great and people who really want your accessories can squint.

Have you ever considered New Orleans? :)
There was A LOT TO SEE, the food was great and the people were friendly and loud - in a positive way.
Barcelona is also quite nice, there is a lot to see there too, you will not get bored - very city life and transportation is very good.
Enjoy your planning! ^^ I love planning almost as much as going :p
I'm doing okay. A little rushed, a little crazy, but okay.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss, and congrats on the new little joy. Life's a real balancing act.
You got me wondering.
Oh I think I'd better have a snack!
Also, I miss having a more private cube so I could take pics in the office, but I still always felt so self-conscious when I did. My current office is much more accessible for wheel chairs, but means virtually no privacy.
I'm planning for Serbia, Croatia and Italy next Fall.
