7 Quick Takes

1.  I'm at the beach again.  I think this is the 5th time I've been at the beach this summer, albeit 2 of those times were only for a few hours each.  No tropical storms crashing the party as of yet.

2.  I'm going to Botswana in less than a month! 

3. It's kind of hard to pack for 2+ years when I really don't know what to expect there.  I'm stocking up on a few things I'm not sure I'll have access to there like quality shoes, and hoping I can find whatever else I need there.

4.  Mom and I have worked on sorting every cluttered room in the house.  None of them are completely junk free yet, but the crypt is 3/4 organized, the furnished part of the basement is about 2/3 organized, the garage is organized except for 2 shelves, and we cleared 2 desks in the office.  There is still a lot of junk to deal with, but we've made a LOT of progress!

5. I bought myself a netbook and am attempting to adjust to a smaller keyboard.  Here's to travel-sized electronics :)

6.  I think I'm also going to break down and get a kindle too.

7.  I'm in this country until 9/11/2012, so please give me a call/e-mail if you want to hang out before then!!
