Back to Work!

Taking a break here for a moment to catch my breath. I went from three weeks off with the entire family to everyone back on-the-go. Lauren isn't in school until tomorrow, but I took her to a doctor appointment after work and now she's at band practice. It's laundry day, which keeps me running around and tripping up and down the stairs ;). I'm creating three Foundation print ads, all due by Friday.

On top of all that, I forgot one ingredient for tonight's dinner. Well, that is the nice thing about having a driving teenager in your house. She is picking it up on her way home from band- without complaint, because it's a driving task! If only I could figure out how cleaning her room could involve a stint behind the wheel.

By the way, Lauren and I kicked everyone's butts at Bananagrams while we were in Dallas for Christmas. We are a freakin' force. Do not mess with us. You have been warned.
