Oh wow, it's been awhile since I posted! I think this post will just be an update on what has been going on in the Neurotic List Making house.
Farmer's Market
I had my first day at the
Poulsbo Farmer's Market. I did better than I expected to. Actually made money after all my fees were deducted, which is always nice! Here's a few pictures of my booth. Sorry I took them with the cell phone right as the market was opening so they aren't the best quality, but it will give you an idea.
Here's my tutu chalkboards. Yes you can really write on them. And yes, they do come on the hanger so they are ready to hang on the back of a door or hook on a wall :)
Here's some of the tutu's I made. Kind of makes me wish I had a little girl!
Here's a picture of the booth. Along with my helper (not by his choice, but hey he got paid! lol). The things you have to do for your parents when you are a teenager ;)
Here's an up close of some of the things in the baskets.
The color run
Justin and I also registered for
the color run. We're going to do the one in Seattle on Mother's Day. It looks like a ton of fun!
DC
And we've started getting things together for our summer vacation in Washington, DC. We are staying at the cutest little
cottage. The guy that owns it seems really nice. All the reviews are great about the place too. I think it will be a nice break from the craziness of DC to be able to come back to the cottage to rest. My mom is going to come with us too. She likes to travel, but she's not as much of a walker as Justin and I are. And yes I've got list for this trip!
I'd show you a copy of the spreadsheet, but my computer isn't wanting to copy the screen and my tech geek is at school.
If I could copy it, you would see that the spreadsheet has tabs for daily schedule (and I have several different schedules to choose from, depending on how the day is going), grocery list, stuff to do before the trip, tour info, dining, packing list, flight info, lodging info, and car rental. I told you I was a little neurotic about lists.
Disney
We won't discuss the spreadsheet I have started for our vacation in approximately 844 days. Yes, that's two years from now! No, I don't see a problem with planning that far in advance. Where are we going in two years? Well, I'll tell you. Why non other than one of our favorite places on earth.
Disney World
I know, shocking surprise. We were going to go right after Justin graduates from High School, but have decided to wait until the end of August after graduation. Disney World has historically offered FREE dining the end of August and most of September. So after crunching the numbers for what it would have cost us to stay at my parent's condo in orlando, the condo is free but once you factor in car rental, parking fees for the condo and all the parks, food (let's face it I'll be on vacation, am I really going to cook). It wasn't that much more to stay on disney property during the free dining period. I asked Justin where he wanted to stay (mind you some of those resorts are pricey!) and he chose.........
here!
This is where we stayed when we went in 2007 for Christmas.
He wants to stay in the 50's section again. They have the coolest pool.
If anyone is planning a Disney Vacation you should really check out
the disboards. Even if you've been to Disney World or Disneyland before, there are so many great tips on this board. And if you're a
little lot Disney crazy like I am, it's a great place to go so you don't drive your family crazy with all your disney talk! Thankfully I have a kid that loves Disney almost as much as I do :)
I think that's about it for now. I'm supposed to be finishing up a hat order right now. A shop in town ordered several of my viking hats to sell at their store. And since Viking Fest is in a couple weeks I need to get my behind in gear!
