A little closure...

Dear Charlotte,

Tomorrow I am packing up and soon I will be leaving you to go to Cincinnati. I would like to thank you for all the great times I've had and the friends I made the short year that I lived here. Hopefully we will come back in a few months to visit.

Love,
Olivia

Less than two weeks

Until we move. I'm a little antsy. Slightly stressed, but excited at the same time.

So many things up in the air. Lots of new. New home. New job. New city.

Last week flew by because I was working so much. This week will probably be the same way just because there is so much to do to get ready. Mental preparations as well as the usual kind.

And then it'll be here before I know it.

If you see me in a state of panic, please remind me to exhale. :)

I've seen this quote before

but for some reason I really like it today.

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." -- Dr. Seuss

Happy Wednesday.

I think my Yahoo email is trying to tell me something...

Or maybe it's just coincidence. I am not sure.

As you know, we'll be moving into a new house soon. Well, it's a new, old house. We are thinking of replacing a few things -- like the entire kitchen -- since the house was built in the seventies. Lately I have been looking at websites, magazines, and whatever to research paint schemes, kitchen ideas, etc. to get some ideas of what I like.

Well, lately (like, everyday for the past week), everytime I have checked my email, the ad banner on the side has been either West Elm, Pottery Barn, or Target. (And, lots of Aveda, too -- but that's beside the point.) Now Target, I understand that. They're a major retailer -- not too surprised about seeing them with my email. But West Elm and Pottery Barn? Really?? I just don't think they'd advertise on Yahoo email. I'm just sayin'.

So is Yahoo reading my mind or what? Kiiiiinda scary.

In other news, I have been getting crafty lately. :) It excites me greatly. I haven't done this much crafting in a loooong time. I finished a painting this weekend. I'm taking two online art classes right now. One for altered canvases/collages and the other is for scrapbooking mini-albums. Love them both so far. I will show the results of said classes when I'm done. Maybe I'll give you a sneak peek if you're lucky. ;)

I have tomorrow off! Yay! Lots of organizing and cleaning to do. With all this arts and crafts lately, I have to do something about my supplies. Wish me luck.
