Nature

Over the weekend we:

Camped. Went wine tasting. Met a nice couple from Oklahoma. Picked lavender. Stopped at fruit stands. Went on a hike. Saw a waterfall on our hike. Ate three cucumbers in one sitting. Cooked 100% of our food on the campfire. Saw four people wearing tie-dyed shirts. Stole a shower. Never slept better.

See…




{All photos/fun were taken/had in and around Mt. Hood and Hood River (one of our favorite Oregon spots).  Let me know if you'd like more info on any of our stops...}

MO...Mission O-ccomplished

Hello, my friends, long time no see. I am in the midst of a little self praise. I love setting goals for myself, and I love even more the feeling of actually moving toward reaching the goals. Currently my goal is to be more “lady like”.

I come back to this dream every summer…and fall, and winter too, but generally most often in the summer. You see, I hate shaving my legs. I absolutely loathe it. I often wonder what celebrities do in this area. I can’t imagine someone with unlimited financial resources actually shaving their own legs. Laser hair removal? Waxing? What’s their answer? If I weren’t saving up for my eye lid lift, I would be saving for total hair removal of the fiercest kind. Until then, I am stuck with the old fashion razor and cream method.

My poor live in. My other qualities must out weight this teeny tiny issue, because it’s very rare to find me with silky smooth legs. Not even on our wedding day did I shave. Not even on our wedding day.

However, since I don’t know of an AA meeting for shaving, I will proclaim to you my friends that I have been clean for four weeks now. This is a big deal. Sure, I have to wake up 25 minutes earlier than I normally do because I have the speed of a 14 year old. Sure, my knees have razor burn every.singe.time. But, I am clean. I can wear skirts now. I can go swimming. My life has no restrictions now.

I don’t know if I would necessarily fall into the “lady like” category, but I do know my legs would.
