My Brain, part II

Now that I have admitted that I leave things laying around the house, I might as well let it all hang out. When we moved into this house is was enormous. We had lived in a tiny two bedroom in Italy. There we had very little storage space, very few drawers, very few cupboards etc. So we didn't really have a lot of STUFF. Here, we had so many cupboards and drawers we didn't have enough STUFF to fill them.

Everytime I leave something on a counter or a table it gets put in an empty drawer or cupboard. Fast forward three years. All our cupboards and drawers are full and I don't know where anything is. This summer I get to go through each and everyone of those drawers and cupboards, organize and put it all away. Joy. Truthfully I enjoy organizing stuff, so it should be a blast.

Also this summer Jeff's mom has agreed to come and visit us for a month. I am very excited. How brave is she? We have an extra room, so I am working on getting it all nice for her. This is going to be our last summer here so having someone to show all my favorite spots to will get me off my butt and out and about. Plus Lily has never met her Grandma, and Mandy and I have only met her twice. I must begin cleaning.

In my desktop design class, which is an introductory class and I want to point out that I have no experience with art or creativity so be kind to me, anyways I am tasked with picking a business for future assignments. I picked my dad's real business and so I am able to make a logo, webpage, brochures etc for him to actually use. My dad actually retired about 7 years ago, they sold everything they own and bought a fifth wheel and are traveling the country. They learned of a sport called Pickleball and have become very involved. My dad has actually won medals in Pickleball Olympics etc. They have also made many friends their age, people who are also retired and living in fifth wheels. These people meet up in various locations and follow the good weather, winter in Arizona, summer in Oregon, that type of thing. Anyways my dad has started making Pickleball paddles and selling them for a bit of extra money. I will let you know how my design plays out. I hope to be of help.

I had a great mother's day, truthfully everyday is mothers day here at Chez Adventures. My family is nice to live with, they treat me well. I hope you all had a great mother's day as well. I sent my mom a present, which is not typical because I am usually forgetful, but hopefully it will get to her soon.
