Oh, lawdy. It's been soooo long since my last post. SO much has happened - in fact here's a recent pic of me now:



And here's little F now. She's grown into such a lovely young woman:



Sometimes when she gets angry, she scares me.


I freelanced as a designer of magical environments at the photo studio for the past month. It was lovely to make some money and be all busy and feel like I was not a suburban stay at home mom.

How fun it is to converse with creative people, over the age of 24, who aren't child-obsessed.

Here are some of the topics I covered with my coworkers:

1. China's current role in Africa

2. Bras and how hard it is to find good ones

3. Beverages that lend themselves to addiction

4. Stray animals we love

5. The Monroe, WI Cheese Days Festival. Be sure to click on the link to the Cheese Days song.

6. Pubic hair

7. Different ways in which feet slowly break down


Next week, F and I get the house all cleaned up and we start to pack some beach goods for vacation! wheeeeeeeeeeeeee

By the way, here's a video I can't get enough of, and I think you may feel the same way. Soundtrack courtesy of Vampire Weekend:
