what a month!

Well, my busy week turned into quite a month!

Excuses as to why I have been absent recently:
- House guests make it difficult to blog and post on Etsy.
"Excuse me, but I need to sit on Blogger and Picasa for a few hours today while you guys drink wine by the pool."

- I got Wii for my birthday.
"Wow, how many sets of eyes do I have to go through before one looks relatively normal..and there is really only one nose option?"

- Lots of crazy going on with my day job.
"M'am we can't sell that to you for an additional 10% off. That would make it free."

- Adam took the only working camera in the house on a business trip for 9 days.
"Wow, I didn't know the iPhone didn't have a digital macro option."

- Lost my iPhone. Seriously.
"What do you mean it will cost me twice as much to replace it as it did to buy it?? I don't think you quite understand, Ms. AT&T person, my LIFE was on that phone!!"

- Heartbreaking turned into heartwarming memorial service for a close family friend in Portland.
"What would I do today if I were brave?"

The entire time in Portland, I just had Fern's voice in my ears reminding me to breathe. It has been a challenging time lately, but everything happens for a reason. Fern's passing reminded me that sometimes it is okay to go with the flow and allow things to happen naturally.

However, in the other ear, Fern was whispering, "Stop wasting time on Wii, blog and Etsy to your hearts content, and you guys should really get that second camera fixed."

So, Fern...this post is for you. The camera is going into the shop this week.
