pink caladryl lotion

Monday August 17, 2009

Well, I am home in Kato.

Hanging out with the parents.

Just got done organizing the linen closet with my Mom.

We threw away pink Caladryl lotion from 1988.

It is 2009.

That is over 20 years expired; which means it was probably purchased before 1988; which means it has been in my Mom’s linen closet for approximately 22 years; which means I was probably eight years old when I last used it.

Just because their was pink Caladryl lotion from 20 years ago in the linen closet does NOT mean the linen closet hasn’t been cleaned out for 20 years – it just means that the pink Caladryl lotion has been saved that long.

Now that is some longevity.

Hmmmm, I wonder what is in the laundry room?

change is good

Yeah! Second day with my new blog!!!

We, and when I say ‘we’ I mean Jake, had to work out some kinks yesterday — with the RSS feed and the ‘brown bar at the bottom’ aka ‘the footer’ — but for the most part all should be working fine today.  Please let me know if something looks out of place or isn’t working right.  We really appreciate the feedback.

While talking with my Mom yesterday, I asked if she had checked out the tabs on the top – archives, about, Judy, and work.

She replies, “I didn’t know what the ‘about’ could be, I already know all about ‘Judy’, and I knew there couldn’t be anything in the ‘work’ section.” Not exactly what I thought she would say but actually pretty accurate!

I have been wanting to change things up for awhile, so it feels really good to have this new place to call my own.

I have always believed that change is a very good thing for the soul.

welcome to my new blog

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Welcome to my new blog!  Oh my goodness gracious I am so excited!!!!!!!!

Isn’t it pretty?  That’s dill to your left.  Dill from our garden.

Did you see the little twitter bird?!  I love it!

Jake and I collarborated again on the design (first time with our wedding site) and then he does all the dirty html, css, blah blah blah code work. I am so lucky that he knows what the hell he is doing.

We have hit our limit though – of sitting next to one another and making decisions about color, dotted vs dashed, uppercase vs lowercase, etc. — for real, I just yelled at him.

Okay, I just apologized.

What I meant to say was THANK YOU for being so creative and smart, I am so incredibly lucky.
