my makeup bag. Granted, I don't wear that much makeup, but having to replace it ALL was expensive (nail clippers, tweezers, mascara, toothbrushes...) We were gone for 7 weeks that time and we had a cruise planned so I even had some of the "fancy" stuff in that bag like lipstick and some eyeliner. Needless to say, when we remember Denver, we remember spending money on replace makeup. This year, it was the first thing to go in the bags.
Brad left this morning at 5am and me and the kids are waiting for our flight at 4. So, he took all the stuff with him except a small bag I am carrying on the plane.
Just waiting.
Last night, we packed the car and Brad asked me to do the trivial task of backing the car down the driveway and I backed right into our other car. If he hadn't been standing there to scream at me I probably would've damaged the heck out of it. Instead, I stopped fast and no damage was done. I'm a loser. Brad was super impressed!
Chloe is really ready to go. I just saw her sitting on the chair on the back porch just staring. She has no toys to play with because I cleaned them all up. Poor kid, but not poor kid because soon she will be on the big plane and then at Grandma's house and completely entertained for 8 weeks.
We are leaving this gorgeous May weather and headed to snow in Utah. We will mostly likely return to an Illinois furnace.
I had this vision of being self-reliant and planting my way to a healthy/economical life with my little garden. We spent 23 dollars at the W and I just looked at my little "garden" with tomatoes, onions, basil, peppers, and flowers and realized the chances of my little creation surviving is slim to none. What was I thinking? Pray for my little garden.
Well, I am going to disconnect the computer now.See you all soon and to everyone else-we will be back in touch later.
Love,
Mel
