Spring has arrived in DC! We had a beautiful week of warm (even hot!) weather. We opened all our windows to let the fresh air in – and the kitties were especially happy about this! This week was very busy with work so I did not have time to blog, but lots went on! We …
Tomorrow is Monday, again. Sigh. As usual the weekend went much to fast, and not nearly as much as I planned got completed. Here’s a wrap-up of what we did. Saturday I spent the day organzing my closet! It is significantly improved, and while it didn’t make for an exciting afternoon- it was worth it! …
I’ve been home almost a week now, and am just starting (today, actually) to feel like myself again! I lazied around all morning watching movies in bed, but am making up for it this evening my making a chicken stock, going for a run, and doing a rush house cleaning because the contractor is here …

On Scott’s last day in DC, Erin took him to the Baltimore aquarium! While you may have heard me mention that it is not as impressive as Monterey, it is still pretty awesome. I asked Erin to forward some pictures, and you’ll notice she is missing – but, she got some good ones of my …
The last couple of weeks have been intense and insane. Last week I logged just under 80 hours for the week. Up at 5 – at work no later than 6:45 – back to the hotel around 4 or 5, then a quick dinner or roomservice, work until 11:30pm or so – then to bed, …
