In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Did it again….

So, in typical Rachel fashion, I have once again put off the brunt of my housework until the last minute. I did clean out the refrigerator, and straighten up some of the main living areas. Everything else, though, is left for me to do before this evening. We have my little cousin’s birthday party to attend this evening, so I’ve got to do it before then. For some reason, yesterday, after I got up and went grocery shopping, I couldn’t seem to get much else done. So, that’s what’s on the schedule for today….cleaning house, cleaning out the van, and baking Chris a birthday cake. His birthday was last Saturday, but I’m not letting it go un-celebrated. You’re only 29 once, you know. Well, unless you’re my Aunt Debbie, that is.

Do you hear that? That’s the laundry. It’s been calling out to me. “Fold me, Rachel. Fold me!”. I’ve been ignoring it for three days. Sometime between now and then, it has become, “Okay, you lazy bum, this is getting ridiculous. Get up off your big, fat tush and FOLD ME!!!”.

So, um, yes, Laundry. I’m coming. I promise.

Jen,
Hey. Sorry it took me so long to reply to you. I have been busy since Chris came home. He got home Saturday morning, and then went right back to work on Sunday morning. He’s on midnight’s right now. I won’t be at church Wednesday, so if you came over tonight to watch Gilmore Girls with me, it would be a perfect opportunity to give me the invitation! I still haven’t got Jec’s shower gift. With Chris coming home, it kept slipping my mind when I was out. You said she needed hot rollers or something like that. What kind should I get her?
Come over tonight! Please, please, please! ;) Chris will be at work.
