We're here...

Colorado!!! Safely. Soundly. With adventures to share...I'll share them soon.

So long, farewell...

Last photos of Corpus Christi, Texas.

And yes, the boxes are packed. The sewing machine is "almost" packed..I still might sew me a big bag for the road trip. But guess what? Tomorrow is the big day! Off to Colorado we go with a night pit stop in Austin to load our storage space. I'm mostly looking forward to the drive once we're out of Texas, especially New Mexico.

Happy Trails to me and happy trails to you! Bye for now...

Instead of packing, I've been a bit crafty. Here is Rachel's apron, ordered from my etsy shop.
It was a 1/2 apron, but I wanted to show you the full one.
It is a longer apron, but I folded at the waistband for your viewing pleasure.
I think it's nice to fold it, especially for those of us short-folk.
I'm sending a little suprise along with this, so I hope she likes it.

You could call this "my summer project." It's a log-cabin quilt for my niece and I finally finished it. Hooray! I find it rather sweet and hope she loves it as much as I do.

I'm feeling pretty emotional about leaving my Mom here in Texas. We've spent a good solid 4 months with her and I just know that little man is going to miss her to pieces. It is pretty hard. I am looking forward to the trip to Colorado especially stops in New Mexico! I also know that my time at Naropa is going to be quite a journey for me. I'm pretty excited about that.

Still here..

I'm still busy going through a ton of stuff. Some of it is on ebay too. We are now leaving this upcoming Tuesday..holy cow! I'll share more real soon. Hope you're doing well!! And I just wish I could find my Donnie & Marie lunch box!!!

I've been busy these past few days. Helping my Mom clean out the garage. And look at these cool things that I've found?!

I'm back but the countdown begins...

14 days. I feel like things have been a bit strange for me most recently. I almost feel like I was in this bubble..this studying bubble and head-in-the-books kind of bubble. Really, people. I'm not smart. I'm booksmart. And I was just telling a friend this...I wish I had studied this hard for my undergrad courses. I am a bit excited to see what lies ahead via my Grad program. And a bit nervous too. I just hope we find a nice place to live and I still dream of the place where we were in Austin. And speaking of Austin, I'm gonna miss that place. I always thought that I'd live there for the rest of my life and who knows, maybe one day I'll be back. It felt like home to me. But as they say, home is where your heart is and my heart will be in Boulder.

I think I have a summertime soundtrack for myself. This one. I have so many songs in my head and so many lyrics on my tongue. I wish I had caught her show in Boulder most recently yet it was sold out. One day I'll see her, yes, one day. I forgot about this chica though. I did see her in Austin and have her most recent album in storage..how silly of me. I wonder how the music seen is in Boulder. It was pretty spectacular in Chicago..pretty great in Austin and now, Boulder, you'll just have to prove your worthiness.

More things to share, soon.
