I'm going on a trip. To a place called crazy. Care to join me?

Hi there. Remember me? I'm Joanne. Otherwise known as Elise's pancreas.

I used to blog. And read your blogs. And leave comments. You know, doing my part in the DOC.

It's been a little quiet around here lately. With good reason. We bought a house.

Actually, we bought THE house. You know, the one we put a contract on, but had to rescind it when ours didn't sell? Yeah, that house. It's a fun little story, remind me to tell you sometime.

That being said, we are supposed to close on our new house, move out of our old one and into the new one AND leave for our trip to Portugal in the next two weeks.

How do you spell stressed? J-O-A-N-N-E! Seriously. Reserve my room in the mental hospital now please.

And to top it all off, I signed up to take part in:

I had so much fun doing it last year, that I really want to do it again. We'll see. If I just post a picture of me curled up in the fetal position, does that count as a post?

Anyway... that's my update from this corner of the world. Now back to my regularly scheduled rocking in a corner, pretending that all of this is not happening.

  2. You got the house!!! Yay!!! :) So happy for you! Life may be insanely busy and stressful right now, but it'll all be worth it. When the boxes are unpacked and the new abode feels like home, you'll be so glad.

    I must add that I'm impressed you're taking on blog week! You go, girl!

  3. Oh, I'm already there waiting with a yummy little umbrella drink for you!!

    So excited for you about the house! I know the next couple of weeks will be insane but there's a huge reward waiting at the end...and no, it's not having to unpack the boxes you packed!!!

    I've signed up for the week, too...we can compare pictures on Wednesday to see who's fetal position is more accurate!!

    HUGS!!!

  5. So happy for you that you got THE house..... Yup, pix of you in the fetal position do count as a post. You don't have to even post that; we will just imagine it. New house and going to Europe, that's so great! You deserve it. Enjoy it!

  6. Oh Jo this is the BEST news! I am sooooo excited for you! And...yes, you are freakin' crazy. It seems you are right where I was last year...Moving + Blog Week = CRAZY TOWN. I didn't even have a trip to Portugal thrown into the mix.

    Happy Mother's Day to one terrific lady!!!

  9. Awwww honey. I am happy to hear about all the joy coming at you guys, but I wish I could s-l-o-w it down a bit so it didn't feel like a freight train bearing down.

    I am also happy to hear the reason you haven't left any snarky comments on my blog is because you are busy, not hiding. I was about to send out a distress call!!!
