Peeking In
Today our internet is being turned off. Really, that will just mean more of an excuse to take breaks to go to the coffee shop and use theirs.
I just crossed a bunch of things off the do to list:
- finish setting up new bank accounts
- have Isadora's microchip updated
- call the electric company
- have our cable box picked up
- go to the doctor
- swing by the dentist
- lots of laundry
- research Portland stuff
- go out with a family friend
- write a few vendors with our new address.
- TONS of excitement.
But last week I found a bike!! I'm waiting for it to come in at the bike shop up the street, otherwise I'll just buy it in Portland.
YAY for a bike I like!!


Good luck with your move, that's very exciting :) I'm making a move out west at the end of August, can't wait :)
Love the bike!

Looks like you've been very productive!
And that bike looks absolutely wonderful! Love the color. Raleigh is a very good bike brand.

That is such an exciting move, especially to Portland where it seems so cool. We are moving two in a week and a half. I am glad I saw your list of things to do..it reminded me to change my dog's microchip address..
thanks :)
