1.) Even if the car would be big enough for the five of us, even if we could swing the payment, the trip, would I really be brave enough to knock on the door of some stranger, some long lost distant cousin? Would I really be able to communicate with no Swedish language skills whatsoever? How do people do that?? I know they do, but how?
2.) ha, ha, ha. I don't know what I was thinking. While I love the idea of cocktails on the green in the golden glow of a balmy summer evening while the kids run around in crisp white shirts, I don't think we're joining a country club anytime soon.
3.) I think the boat dream is pretty firmly moored at this time. It's just so much work. Someday.
4.) Since we just hired someone in our department with an emphasis on green candidates, I think its pretty clear I'm not going anywhere. Which is a good thing because I love my job and my people. While I think it makes sense to continually challenge myself professionally, I am currently way more drawn to plants and paint colors. I can't lie.
5.) Ah, a longer race. I technically could. I have two legs. I could. I just don't know where the time comes from. Where does the time come from? It would be an exercise in commitment if nothing else.
6.) I've never really signed the kids up for camp, so its not like I'm whimsically thinking about these things. We went for the one that was a little of everything. Down side is that its expensive. Up side is that its two weeks of full days and all three kids will be there. Upside is that I might be able to justify the cost and time by painting the house. This is also the downside, if you needed me to spell that out.
7.) So, the weather pattern has been AMAZING. Finally rained, for like a week, followed by 3 beautiful sunny days, followed by days of rain, followed by days of glorious sun. Its a miracle. The plants couldn't be happier.
8.) I actually can choose the plants I want myself, and I think, I think, I did a pretty good job! Really excited about that Pinky Winky.
9.) Easter? Went with sticky buns and morning glory muffins that turned out to be a little too dry. That's ok. The asparagus, goat cheese, sundried tomato quiche was fantastic.
10.) THE DOG... The dog, the dog. I found myself saying the other day that I want a puppy. Really?
