My Bad...

Hi friends,

So, it has been brought to my attention by more than one blog follower that I have not posted in a month...insane!! It hasn't felt like that long, but I suppose that is what happens when you're VERY busy.

I know that when I visit a blog that I like only to find that new content hasn't been posted in a looooong time I usually go through the following thought process: Is the blog writer okay? (and then almost instantly to...) Wtf, where the hell is she/he?!

With that being said, I feel that I owe you an explanation. Well, not only have I been suuuuper busy handling client matters in my legal practice (I'm a business transactional and corporate attorney with super busy corporate clients...so, naturally, that translates to lots of work for me, for which I am blessed and thankful for), but I have also been devoting a portion of my free-time to the ACLU as a volunteer attorney. Not only am I loving the the first case that I am working on, but I am also really enjoying the opportunity to work closely with other attorneys. Let's face it, when you're a solo practitioner, work can be a bit lonely at times, so it's always nice when I get to go in to the ACLU offices and discuss fascinating cases with really cool attorneys.

Speaking of lonely, have I ever mentioned that I am the primary house-keeper in our home? I don't didn't mind it at all...until recently. When I wasn't that busy with work, it was pretty easy for me to maintain a clean home. By easy I don't mean easy (as it would usually take me hours upon hours to get the whole house clean), but it wasn't really a challenge, per se. Nowadays, my schedule is so jam packed that I rarely get the chance to devote that many hours at a time to housecleaning. Enter Dr. Love :) Yesterday, he helped me by doing the dishes (which he often helps me with) and vacuuming the entire house (which I'm pretty sure he has never done at this house before). My post-cleaning observations: Dr. Love is a damn good vacuum-er...he is thorough (vacuumed all the base molding/window panes too) and the man does.not.stop. He must have vacuumed for HOURS straight (except for the xbox game stop between vacuuming the downstairs and the upstairs which I requested as I was not yet done preparing the upstairs rooms for vacuuming). Needless to say, I was impressed.

Dr. Love's post-cleaning observations: "we need to hire a cleaning company...," which not only made me laugh, but also made me feel pretty damn awesome for always doing all the housecleaning myself. Needless to say, Dr. Love was impressed. We topped our long day of housecleaning off with burgers and fries at The Counter, after which we returned to our VERY clean home and watched Game of Thrones (obviously).

That's about it friends...below are some recent pics.

That's it for now...or, based on the roll I've been on, that's if for this month :). J/k...I don't plan on being MIA for that long anymore, but hey, you can only plan so much. Until next time...enjoy this song that I'm digging:
