Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Thanks, Kat - from both CJ and me.

K-Bug just drove back from NM and she said on her way there and on her way back she ran into horrible construction zones just before she got to her destination. Getting slowed down when you are so close makes that time go 5x slower.

Yeah, it does. There's so much construction EVERYWHERE -- Recovery Funds at work!

Ok, I think this is crossing threads but I just realized that the stubbed toe never would have happened if I'd gotten up first thing and put shoes on! I did get dressed, though, and my sink is reasonably clean.

Anyway, yay for Maria check-ins, yay for home safe peoples.

K tells me no more traveling, but then I was like, WAIT! we have a three day weekend in a week. We should go see Liese and her DH....She vetoed that idea.

We have a three day weekend then too AND IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!

Ooooh! Super tempting... I don't think I could coax K back into the car with the twins though. The kids were great travelers, but also, exhausting.

Perhaps another 3 day weekend in the future?

The comments on Nick Ashford's (of Ashford and Simpson) obituary are incredibly sweet and touching. Occasionally newspaper comments are a good thing. [link]

That manicure reminded me - for DCistas - the Aveda store/salon in Georgetown has a good selection of nail polish, including a limited number of Zoya polishes.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Kat, I totally get where K's coming from. I won't schedule two kid included trips close together for the sake of my sanity.

Why is it only Tuesday? The kids have 8 days of summer left and I am ready for them to go back to school.
