All kinds of new photos are up!
Lake Nutimik...my first week long (true) vacation in almost two years...this one did not involve any philanthropic efforts, volunteer work or education benefits. It involved sitting on a beach, sleeping in, visiting and laughing and the occassional beer. Ok, ok...the beer was more than occassional!
There are photos of my new niece Olivia.
There are photos of my nephew Matt's second birthday.
And a couple other random shots that I took and liked.
Click here http://www.flickr.com/photos/crgoodin/ and take a cruise through my photos!
Happy smiles today!

Olivia Hope
I have a new niece.
My heart doubles in size every time I get a new niece or nephew...I love her so much and she was only 12 hours old in this picture.
Welcome Olivia, we've waited so long to meet you!

Heaven
I think I have died and gone to heaven.
My life has become increasingly chaotic over the past few months (hence the post just below this one!) so I decided it was time to hire a cleaning lady.
Her name is Esmeralda and I think she is a angel sent from heaven. I swear she has wings.
So, she comes every other week. She changes the sheets on my bed, she does my laundry ,including folding and hanging. This is my most hated chore, laundry. I have never, ever liked doing laundry. I wish I could invent some sort of biodegradable, fashionable, disposable clothing and never have to spend time with dryer sheets again.
So, the first week she came I was there working with her just to see if she had questions, needed supplies etc, etc. I was doing laundry while she was there. Having her clean the rest of the house was motivation for me to focus on a couple of loads of laundry.
Her second visit was two weeks ago and when I came home, my freakin' laundry was done! I never asked her to do that!! She just did it...and honestly, I'd rather pay her to do my laundry rather than clean my floors. I really, really thought I had died and gone to heaven. I didn't know that cleaning ladies did laundry! She had even washed and folded the sheets she took off my bed! Damn! Now that is a bargain!
Yesterday was her third visit here. This is what I came home to:
She folded ALL the sweaters and t-shirts on the top shelf off my closet. Now, I wish I had a before picture to show you and you would begin to feel a small portion of the relief and excitement I was feeling after I saw this. It was a total, complete rediculous mess. It's almost embarrassing that she saw it let alone fixed it. I was stunned...and relieved.
See. I told you.
Esmeralda really is an angel sent from heaven.

Embarrassing
I just logged onto make a new post here on my blog...and it's very embarrassing that I last posted on April 27th. I'm pretty sure I lost the only three blog fans I had...
Oh well...carry on...
