moving back

Today is a momentous day.

Exactly 24 days ago, we moved all of our office to our home due to severe flooding. So, we've been overloaded at home with employees, customers, phone calls, and just plain old "stuff".

Today... we are moving back to the office.

Honestly, I think it was easier moving out. We only had a few hours and we had to work as fast as we could and shove everything into boxes and bins and get it out.

Upon returning, we have to touch every. single. item. and put it in it's proper place.

We're taking advantage of this time to rearrange a little. I gave up my private office for one of the salesmen to have his own office. And I am rearranging all the displays and trying to come up with a better configuration for things....which is no easy task.

The bottom line... I don't know why we have so much stuff. blech. I will spend the next several days at work getting things back into order before we actually get anything accomplished.

It amazes me how much stuff changes when a town is flooded.

Maja said the same thing today when I asked her if she was glad that the flood was over, some things will never be the same. Yet all temporary. You will do so awesome at arranging it all, you are the best. seriously. you are. and to think, in about 24 days from now life will all change again. insane. or maybe i better check to see if you really still want your house to be in that much of craziness...?

coffee

I have to take issue with something. Dave Ramsey... love him. usually. But, today... I got an email from him (not because we're personal friends but because we've paid to take his FPU class)... and he had the NERVE to say that coffee is not a necessity. it is a luxury. I'm contemplating my open letter to him. Something like this... Dear Dave, Although I appreciate all that you have done in your life and ministry, I have to take issue with one point. Coffee is not a luxury. How can I ask my husband to extend a special line item in our budget for Starbucks when you continue to claim that it is a luxury? Let me educate you on the value of my daily Starbucks .... First of all, it is research... when I get the necessary funds, I plan to open my own coffee shop, and it is vital to my financial peace that I complete the research needed for a successful coffee shop. Secondly, ... have you SEEN me in the morning when I don't have it? Do you work beside me? No... you haven't...

Quick! Call an Ambulance!

I went on a bike ride with my 9 year old yesterday. Okay... I will wait a minute while you gain your composure. You don't have to be so loud about it. I had been promising her that we would go on a bike ride together for a few days. Why didn't I promise her a trip to Starbucks for a nice hot latte? So, we ditched a few responsibilities and went on a bike ride. But, I didn't have a bike. So, I was going to walk. She said I could borrow Abbie's bike. Except Abbie has the bike seat from the land down under - you know what I mean. And my rear was not meant to sit on that tiny thing. But, I rode it anyway. After we crossed the street, we started heading down the road and it was pretty nice for a couple minutes. Luckily, my dad lives 2 blocks away, so we had to stop there to say hi and to tell him that we are on a bike ride. Then, we headed back on our bike ride. We left my dad's and there is a slight hill. Emily got tired just-in-the-nick-of-time so I had to walk...
