What a day!

From the moment I got up until about now, it's been going non stop, one thing after the other.  Oh the joy of going away on vacation, everything has to be ready for the people staying behind, never mind the stress it causes me, I'll be away on vacation after all...  I must say, the past weeks have been squeezing all types of juices out of me.  No matter now, I'm about to leave for a wonderful time away, with my lovely husband, my mother and a friend.

This morning I received a box of goodies I've ordered, being creative to try to avoid quite expensive shipping fees and using some connection.  I was hoping it would get here before we left and it did, yay!

Our regular mail delivery also included a nice pair of earrings I've ordered on Etsy and a cute charm I had ordered on e-bay.  Everything came in, woot!

I went to get my hair cut for the trip and resisted the temptation to go short again.  I did get some shorter bangs, because the long ones were annoying me.  After that we made our way to the dealer and picked up our new 'used' car.  It's actually better than I expected.  I hadn't seen yet and was pleasantly surprised.  I think we did ok overall.

Yesterday while on Bacefook, a friend who lives in LA mentioned he was also going away.  Turns out he'll be on the same island we will be on at the same time, how strange is that?  Sometimes one has to wonder about those coincidences...


Anyway, I have much to do still, and like every other time we've gone away somewhere, we'll manage to get everything done (last minute)...  at least I hope we will.  Aloha oe!
