I have some very exciting news to share...are you ready for it?? We're moving! I can't tell you how excited I am about this new development. Perhaps it is because our new house will not feel like it is constantly caving in on us due to it's incredibly small size. Or, perhaps it is because we'll be a little bit closer to a new "American" restaurant that Chris & I are dying to try. But, if I'm honest, I think it is because we will now have a dishwasher, a garbage disposal, closets (actual closets, people!), and lastly, and MOST importantly...a washer & dryer!! I will no longer have to spend exactly $9.25 every other week to do laundry at the really rather nasty laundromat! I will no longer have to waste hours of my day sitting alone, waiting for my clothes to wash and dry. Oh, think of all the wonderful things that I can do with my extra time now! The possibilities are endless!
I'd post pictures if I had any, because I know that you are all dying to see what I am raving about. Now, I can't say that it's the house of our dreams, but holy moly it is a VAST improvement from where we have been living the past 2 years. These plastic bins, that hold everything from clothes to computer gear, are just not cutting it anymore. There is only so much you can do to those babies to make them look decorative, and I'm afraid I've failed miserably in that arena! But now...now we will have room to use Chris's poor speakers who have made their home under our guest bed for the entire time we've been in England. AND, we have a full size mirror...I'm incredibly excited to see the bottom half of my body when I get dressed in the morning (or am I?? heehee!). We move in about 2 weeks, and I'm literally jumping for joy at this very instant.
I'll post more about it when it gets a little closer, but for now I'm just daydreaming about doing my whites :)

Isn't it amazing that a garbage disposal and real closets are something to get excited about. I remember those days from Italy, and now I'm just waiting for the day we leave Hawaii and get back to somewhere that requires central air. Can't wait to see pics of the new house.
Yay! You crack me up. I'm just proud of you for putting up with a laudromat for so long! I would be wearing really dirty clothes by now if I had to do that :) I hope the move goes smoothly...I was really hoping you were moving back to TX...maybe next time ;) Miss ya!
Oh my word - you are a trooper b/c I don't think I would have lasted that long without a washer and dryer, closets, and a garbage disposal. HAPPY MOVING!!!
