hallo

wow, i'm really behind on my blogging. our new/old laptop (formally wannie's old laptop) went crash, boom and has basically officially called it quits. my parents generously lent us their laptop for a few weeks while we pony up and freaking buy a new laptop already. we have definitely been prolonging the envitable the past few years, but we finally went and looked at some laptops at costco over the weekend. so in the meantime, i'm not able to upload any photos or videos, which is a bummer because patrick took some great shots while he was in texas last week and i got a super cute video of the two of them before they flew out last week.

i don't have time to do a true update, but here are some things i've been wanting to blog about:
-the fact that i now sorta have to have coffee in the morning. ugh, i did not want that to happen.

-our chickens still haven't produced any eggs and we are anxiously awaiting them to hurry on up with it already.

-that piper is in quite possibly, the most adorable, wonderful, hilarious stage ever. i just can't get enough of her and i want to put her in my pocket and carry her around with me all day.

-that i love fat free chobani greek yogurt a lot.

-i'm in a recipe rut. i haven't been cooking much since this semester started and we've been eating a lot of leftovers and hastily thrown together meals and i miss trying something new.

-that i really want to try and recreate a homemade loaf of Ezekiel Bread. the fancy, organic, biblical bread that is $4.99 a loaf. i LOVE it.

-that patrick planned the best birthday weekend for me. it was one of my most favorite birthday weekends ever and we really did nothing but sit around at the beach and drink, read magazines, watch good tv, walk the beach and take 3+ hour bike rides.

-that i got up the courage to go to a meditation class at the Buddhist temple around the corner from our house and when i got there the class had been canceled and i was secretly so relieved because i really didn't want to go, i was just trying to make myself want to want to go.

Cool updates. Both of us are so busy. It is kinda lame. Why can't you upload pics on M and D's puter? You could still keep them on your card.

I am cracking up about the meditation thing. i wouldnt look into the signs too much on that one.

i went to a meditation half day thingie in kathmandu. it was hellish. you have to sit cross legged for long intervals supposedly meditating but actually thinking how your foot is falling asleep, your back hurts, you want to open your eyes, is anyone else peeking, etc. it wasn't fun or enlightening so you aren't missing much.
