it may have seemed that i fell off the face of the earth. it's been a crazy couple of weeks. getting lots of work done so i could have a few days off during my mom's visit. plus, we held a big party for 40 friends to celebrate sabin's confirmation. that and a whirlwind day where i worked all morning, picked up four teenagers and raced off to copenhagen to drop them off at a one direction concert, had dinner at nyhavn in the sunshine with my mom and then picked up the girls (along with about a zillion other parents who also had escaped actually attending the concert) and drove 3 and a half hours home to arrive here at 2:30 a.m., fell asleep by 3:30 only to wake up at 4:30 to take my mom to the airport for her flight at 6, came home and got ready for work as usual. whew. it makes me tired all over again, just typing it. but anyway, that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it.
meanwhile, along the way, i collected small snippets i wanted to blog about, but oddly, the words haven't wanted to flow out my fingers as they usually do. i think it's because so much of my work life now consists of things which are secret. i'm an immediate type of person and if i'm working on things which can only be talked about sometime next year or the year after, it gets in the way of the here and now, even if it's not those things i would even want to write about. you get a few secrets in your life and then everything starts to feel like it's a secret. and so my words have been blocked.
so until they clear, here are a few shots of our beautiful party last weekend. it was absolutely perfect weather-wise and the company was top notch. i highly recommend these chinese wish lanterns. they were a big hit. we will definitely be buying them again. they couldn't have been prettier or more joy-inducing.
