I'm back






So, I have been quite AWOL for a long time but promise not to leave for this long again. I have had a wonderful couple of weeks-went to Moscow to watch Steph and a few of her friends graduate from college (first one in our family to do that!) and then a trip to Atlanta to get her settled. We had an awesome time and now WE want to move there. I do like Alaska but.....Atlanta...LOVED it!!

I am off work now for the summer and am in the midst of planting and trying to clean up this place. We still talk about listing it with a realtor but so far have not. I would love to have a smaller house here and then a townhouse in Atlanta to spend my Christmas break as well as my summers there. It has been pointed out to me that that this is very backwards--winters in Alaska and summers in the HOT HOT South but that would be pretty consistent with my usual pattern-backwards!!




Jeff and I are going on a strict diet (yes!! a new one-this is just a never ending theme with me) starting the first of June. We will be "clean eating" (read NO WINE or sugar :( ) and doing the P90X workout videos. I will keep you posted-if I live thru it although, I will probably live but kill Jeff-he annoys me when we diet together. I lose a pound-he loses three dress sizes.



But, until then I plan on drinking the vino, snacking on EVERYTHING and pretty much having an awesome weekend. Charlie and Sam will be here Tuesday, Blaise may swing by for a bite at some point and time and STEPH....she will be here in spirit but whooping it up in Atlanta-you go GIRL!!

Here are a couple of quick pictures--yes, the can of sauerkraut and the ring of sausage--dinner!! This is what happens when I don't want to deal with Fred Meyers on Friday night!
