Dear Kopy

Let's just pretend I haven't been a pathetic blogger who hasn't shown my face in months. Okay? Great.
This one is for Mr. Jon Kopy, who is likely now my lone reader.

While I was not working on my blog, I was working way too many hours, watering plants (a lot of watering), going on vacations and weekend getaways whenever I could, trying desperately to keep in touch with my distant friends and family, enjoying summer concerts, watching a disgusting amount of fall TV shows, trying to stay active, and "managing" my fantasy football team (which somehow keeps winning even though I have no real managing skill). Mostly, I'd like to think I have been takin' care of business, which brings me to a little list I will leave you with. (Feel sorry for me.)

Lame grown-up things I now get excited about:
1) Having a portable dishwasher (dishwasher--I will never again take you for granted).
2) Buying our own cable modem so that Comcast can't gauge us $7/mth to rent one.
3) Discovering that thawing portions of a $9.95 giant Costco bag of berries for my yogurt is much more. cost effective than buying clamshells for $4+ every week.
4) Hanging hooks for my purses in my closet.
5) Installing a wall-mounted cabinet in our bathroom to replace the grungy rotting one.
6) Finding a stainless steel trash can at Costco that comes with a free mini size one for compost.
7) BestBuy's service plan paying off with a replacement mouse for our broken one (better, wireless version and no charges).
