Summner Heat

So it is a little warm for WA state. We have been upper 70's, low 80's. We are not used to this weather. Today being Saturday we decided to try to beat the heat by lounging around the house with fans and friends. Being on the couch with my laptop and 4 guys around me ... this is a lot of heat.
We are not at home with the AC but at a friend's house with fans and the sun at my back. Heat makes me sleep. I am tired and hot and uncomfortable.

I luckily have working the past few days in an AC room with the fan on and with today was the last Sat of the month it was the last min crunch. Today was 13 evaluations and I did it in 6 hrs instead of the 8 I had planned. I just tell myself I have 25 days left then Vegas here we come.

Speaking of Vegas I hear that once we get to Vegas and sign in to the Con it will be non-stop action and chaos. This will be my first Con and not sure how this works. Hopefully I will be able to keep up. Speaking of which I still need to pick up some shirts and shorts and some tanks and jeeze a basic new wardrobe... wonder how much it would cost for a Britta filter thingy in Vegas... or if bottled water will be the best option as both boys are allergic to chlorine. What fun to think about that.

Vegas here we come!!!!!

So my plan in life is to visit all 50 states and maybe some other countries. So far I have been to 4 states soon to be 5. Well we live in WA state, so that checks that one off the list.

We also took a vacation to Georgia to visit friends and go to Dragon con. That was a lot of fun. I wish we could have stayed longer for the full con. Maybe next time.

Next state we went to was California where my hubby proposed to me underneath the archway in Sleeping Beauty's castle where they do the fire works. Mind you I couldn't eat much afterwords but overall the trip was fun.

So that is three states so far, but the last state we have been to was Oregon. We went for a wedding and to visit Uurson's parent's graves at Willamette national cemetary. It was Memorial day weekend.

Now I can say that officially soon I will have been to 5 states. I am going to Vegas baby. Now mind you both Uurson and Matt are somewhat allergic to heat. Which is going to pose to be an issue. But I suppose we will be up for the challenge.

We need to get a few last min things, plane tickets, shorts, and shirts. But we have the hotel, and the Con tickets. We also get to see an old time friend. I haven't seen her in years. I get to meet her youngest and see her oldest again.

On a side note that I have a new mini type laptop. It is uber cute and it allows me to blog more and avoid the computer desk. Something I sit at every day. Here is hoping Vegas comes soon and will make for a great trip.
