In Response to Complaints That I Haven't Blogged All Week...

You know who you are. ;)

I should tell you upfront that I wrote a post on Tuesday, an appendix to the PEI Travel Journal, but I haven't added the pictures yet, so it's just sitting in the "drafts" bucket. It will get done tonight, if I can find the sticky note...

Literally, this is my desk right now. I have a list of things to do around the house, a list for purchases I need to make, a separate grocery-and-coupon list, a list of errands to run before I die, and a list of people to call. And my home internet is being a poo. And I'm shopping for car insurance. 

My list of lists should qualify for today's Funny Friday. If only I was being funny. 

But it's all good. I like being busy, and I know that this weekend will have a lot accomplished. The antsy side of my brain just wants to cross things off the list, but I can't do that yet. So in the meantime, my brain just keeps coming up with things to add to all my lists, which is kind of maddening, but hey, that means I'm being productive, right? Right????

I have crossed a few things off my list, which is nice. One of the most important things was installing one and replacing the batteries for two additional....smoke detectors!

I feel so grown up with the smoke detectors...until I start cooking. Lame. 

A Funny Friday story is unlikely to happen at this point, I'm sorry to say. But hopefully you'll get a Travel Journal special this weekend, and maybe even a My Productive Weekend post on Monday. Happy Friday!

A Little Announcement

Yes. It's true. It's finally happening. My bff and I are getting a place together and going to be real, live grown-ups.
This is us together...Watch out, world!


We started talking about getting a place together in January. We plotted and schemed and chatted and talked and emailed and discussed and watched Doctor Who and researched and budgeted and plotted some more, and now it's finally happening. As in, my stuff was moved in on Sunday, and Samara's stuff is coming on Saturday, and WE WILL BE MOVED.

I know that this is the beginning of a new and exciting chapter, one that will bring a lot of maturity and responsibility and wisdom {hopefully!}.

Look at how responsible this person is. Grocery shopping: nailed it.

And then sometimes I still feel like I'm pretending to do this whole "grown up" thing...

And I'm pretty sure that this will happen at some point.

Anyway, the point is, Samara and Beks are setting off on an adventure that will change their lives forever...it might even change the world. And it's already changed something... one white wall is now Frolic Green :)

P.S. Check out Samara's point of view on our excitement!
