Well, I'm ending my almost month long hiatus an am now going to inform my 3 readers what I've been up to.
1. Time Out for Women with sister and sis in law. Yes, I cried.
2. Work. Some weeks I work 4 nights and some weeks only 1, but it's still very exhausting. And before you text me me asking, I work as a housekeeper for the IF Temple... And have since March.
3. Half Marathon. I finished it on June 11, but am still running to prepare for my next one in August. It's awsome, but yes, time consuming/exhausting.
4. No internet... But not to worry. After a recent purchase, we now have wifi AND a Samsung Galaxy.
5. Refinishing our piano. After hours and hours of neverending sanding, staining, and 5 coats of polyurethane... It's (still almost) done.
6. Did I fail to mention that we moved? Yes. June 6th.
I could write a list of biblical proportion about how number 6 has been almost the death of my happiness. Moving to a house and unpacking things from 2 storage units (some of which have been stored unopened for 2 1/2 years) has been stressful and not quite as fun as I had previously anticipated. Whatev.
So, I'm back, slightly grudgingly. And yes, I do realize I prolly spelled that wrong.

We're emptying out both storage units.
Yes, you heard, and understood it correctly. We're moving into a house!
No, we're not new home owners, we're just renting it. And technically (if you're going to be like that) it's not completely our house. The attic is a separate unit that some girl lives in, and the basement is another separate unit that is currently unoccupied. However, the main front door, porch, back deck, and fenced backyard is all ours. Also, the 1400 sq/ft main level living space is ours. This old charmer was built in the 1920's and is complete with dark hardwood floors throughout, archways, walk-in closets, and a humongous kitchen (despite the nasty dark-red sloppy paint job on the cabinets I'll be forced to ignore). We're only 2 blocks away from Kate Curley Park and are living in one of the few neighborhoods in Idaho Falls that have sidewalks- pure luxury.
So, it's probably not as nice and fancy as your place, but we're thrilled to have it be ours... for at least 12 months (darned leases). It's Christmas morning all over again! Hip hip horray!
