scrubbed clean.

  it's been too long since i've been around these parts.
my mom even noticed my absence (hi, mom!).
i've missed this little space of sharing; this slice of the interwebz.

life has been really busy & lovely as of late...
full of all of the best stuff:

meals & drinks with friends,
bridal showers,
alma mater basketball games,
fundraisers/parties,
fancy pharmaceutical work dinners,

a guestroom filled with those we love,

 miles logged along the shores of lake michigan 

& rockford time with the family clan.

i've spent the whole day cleaning, organizing, and catching up on
internet reading & mindless perusing.
it's been awesome.
you know you've been too busy when you actually look forward to
going through piles of papers.

speaking of, i snapped this photo of our table & realized it represents exactly how i'm feeling.
our kitchen table has literally been covered in piles all week;
my blow dryer had even found its home there {long story involving an electrical outage}.
i wish i would've taken a 'before' picture,
but this 'after' is definitely how my mental state feels now:
scrubbed clean, de-cluttered, & refreshed.


i'm thinking about doing a little round-up of life in the last month or two,
to record & remember how we've spent our recent days.
stay tuned!

wishing you bits of sunday calm...
