Checking back in to the site after a month's absence...
It's been more than a month since the last post. I have a few longer topics for the coming weeks, but will leave you with a few thoughts on things going on in the meanwhile...
We've been taking an Italian class for the last few weeks and I'd forgotten how much work a class can be, primarily because of the studying and homework. More on the class in a future post, but so far I consider this to be pretty enjoyable. I guess the real test is the next time we're back in Italy though :).
I've started watching landscaping TV shows lately because I'm trying to get a handle on what we should do with our yard this spring and summer. Clodagh's approach of taking a landscaping class is probably a better way to go, but I'm already starting to get some ideas from the shows. I'm wondering how long it will take until I can't take any more - we watched a lot of "staging" and "selling" shows while we were getting ready to put the condo on the market and I can't really watch them anymore because of it. Probably a good thing. Anyway, I'm hoping that the dude from Yard Crashers is at our local hardware store soon because we could certainly use the free professional help :).
Clodagh has finally convinced me that the photos section of this site kinda sucks both for the user as well as for us uploading so we've gotten a smugmug account. And now that I'm playing with it a bit I'm sad that I dragged (drug?) my feet for so long. I haven't done much customization yet, but slowly but sure our page will be getting more pictures and jazzed up. Also a topic of a future longer post.
