In two days I will finally be on my way to Milan! It doesn't seem real yet, I have so much left to do, like fitting my entire life for six months into two suitcases! It's pretty much impossible....but I can't wait to be in Italy :)

I don't know the best way to address what happened with my grandpa on this blog, other than to just be blunt. Unfortunately he died this past Friday. The family viewing was last night and the memorial service is today. It's hard to not be there, but ... Read more >

A cold day, but a bright one for Halloween.  Went down to Target and the Springfield Mall today to do some last minute stuff - lots of silly shopgirls dressed up in their wicked witch hats, together with a few younger children in bumble bee outfits ... Read more >
