Updates..

Sorry for leaving you all hanging.. but I've been in Michigan visiting with the family and the internet has not been working.

I'll admit.. it was kind of liberating to not be able to jump on the internet (or my phone-- cell service stinks in the middle of nowhere) whenever I wanted. It was freeing, almost.

On the flip side of that, I totally missed all of you! I'm STILL catching up on your lives and trying to comment. I missed hearing about your lives- it sounds crazy, I know- but I feel connected to so many of you. I found myself talking about some of you to family and friends and referring to you as "my friends". Even though we're bloggy friends, I really appreciate you!

In case you wondered what I've been up to.. go here. Yes, that's me in a bee suit. I'm the blonde on the left. I also spent 3 hours in a car with my parents. That's always an adventure. It's even more of an adventure when dad puts the gps on Spanish so I can "work on my Spanish while driving", mom gets confused with the time zones, and I'm generally a wreck when others are driving in busy traffic. Needless to say, there were plenty of laughs. And no panic attacks. Phew.

Yesterday, I spent time with my in real life best friends from high school/college. I love those girls. I wish they lived closer. There's just something about having girlfriends...
