p.s....

p.s.....this is where we will be next week. i'll have my phone for emergencies only, including texts...it is ridiculously expensive and i am now officially broke.

off to aruba for sun, sand, those palm frond huts, and snorkeling!

don't worry...i'll bring the spf. ;)

OOPS...

so, it has been an eternity since i have posted. my apologies. but, there really aren't many of you who read this yet, so it's all good.

since we last spoke, we have gone to boston and visited with marist girls, drank sangria with blair and matt, worked a bazillion hours and bought a house!!

oops, we bought a house! it's adorable. tomorrow we will finish the financing stuff and the inspector comes. we are very excited!

here's a little sneak peak....we should find out soon when the closing will be, and i will keep you posted.

this week has been exhausting!!!

wonderfully, deliciously exhausting! :)

thievery

i'm not sure why, and i absolutely cannot explain it....but every time i see one of those DunBar armored guards carrying out large sums of money from stores or restaurants, it takes everything in my power to NOT try to steal their loot. everything. i have to force myself to stay where i am as i watch them saunter by with their little loaded guns. it has absolutely nothing to do with the actual treasure, but i always wonder if they would shoot me dead. would they shoot me? would they reaaaally??
anyway, i know it's ridiculous.
i just can't help myself.

freckle party....

let me just say, i had the most fabulous day.
it was the first day in i-don't-know-how-long that i didn't have a plan, and had nothing to do.
my mom, my sista-friend and i went down to a favorite RI beach, laid out in the gorgeous sun all day, dipped our adorable pedicured toes in the ice water, watched very small children dig very deep holes, ate (delicious) turkey sandwiches, and ended the day with a slice of pie at Mystic Pizza.

this love of the beach thing is a fairly new thing for me. i have terrible childhood memories of singed flesh and blisters galore. but today, with the help of good ol' banana boat SPF 30 (applied liberally every 2 hours, of course), i managed to throw a fantastic freckle party, and the aloe wasn't invited.

a good time had by all. i'm taking my sun-fatigued freckles to bed.
goodnight. :)
