July headed out for Maui


Yes, the above picture is of the 3 of us and the below picture is our organized drawer in the bathroom.

I am posting this because it is a symbol of Morgan and I ejecting Mark from our bathroom. With Marks departure we gained one extra drawer in the barroom :)

The good news is that Mark refurbished the down stairs bathroom. New sink and vanity so he could take all of his manly items down stairs. Even put a fan down there.

We purchased, new pink "smart store drawers" and put everything that was just laying around in the drawer into separate containers. I swear this shortens your bathroom time, which is good with a 6th grader she just wants me out of there.

I might do a Maui blog when we are there but for sure no Facebook. I just want to dis-connect. We are staying for 3 weeks a sort of mini early 50th birthday party. I have mixed feelings about turning 50 in February. I guess I am in shock that 50 years have gone by. I remember standing in our front yard when I was about 9 and doing the math in my head about what year would it be when I turned 50. 2015 seemed like forever. How can 2015 be 6 months away?

I have so much to be grateful for which makes it easier to say, Yes, I am turning 50.

I find it easier to say, "Yes I want to do that"
Have a house keeper and get my nails done "Yes I want to do that."
Sleep in late on the weekends vs. getting up early to get everything done so I can be an extra attentive mommy to Mark and Morgan "Yes I want to do that"

I am feeling that 50 is not so scary as I thought it was. Maybe even come February I will have a big 50 party and invite all my friends to a lunch/margaritas party.

Blessings and July Maui Love,
