I have been in bed sick with the flu since Saturday and this is the only view I gave seen... Sorry for the lack of posts....
Here is a view of the main room at the cabin we stayed in. One thing this trip did for me was confirm my hunch that I would like living in a house that has an open space concept. I am trying to achieve that with the house I have right now but the location of the basement and upstairs stairs prevent me from doing it completely.
There are alot of people in my life right now who are perfect for me and Erin is one of them! My birthday was in January but she didn't feel like a gift had spoken to her yet, she hadn't found the perfect one, so she didn't rush it and I can appreciate that!
Today at lunch we took a field trip to Abacus in Portland, ME. We had walked by there yesterday but didn't have time to appreciate it fully so today we had the whole hour! In the back of the store is StoryPeople... i can't describe it here just check the site. Erin went NUTS! She loves StoryPeople.. they are her finger puppets - the small gift that Jermaine gave to her when they started dating that meant so much to her. We spent some time looking through them and I found this one - and this one was perfect for me - so she said "THIS IS IT, THIS IS YOUR BIRTHDAY GIFT" and it was a perfect moment! Its perfect on so many levels, its prefect because we found it together, perfect because it was something that was dear to her that she is now sharing with me, and perfect because this saying sums up exactly where my life is in my 35th year.
Thank you Erin - You are perfect for me!
As u know I have been off the dunk for a week or so and today is the first day I made ice coffee with the press and I actually liked it!!! I have almost drank the entire thing!
The cabin we stayed in
We went away this weekend, and the full details of the trip and a nice photogallery will be posted in the next day or so (there are 488 images) but here are five quick ones :)
