As of Late

I know we keep teasing you with projects and saying "we'll show you when we're done...", but, sadly we are just not done yet! Harris is working an inordinate amount of hours (I really love using the word inordinate, it sounds so dramatic to me), and I have been traveling a good bit. We did, however, just purchase a few new lovelies from Etsy, which will help enhance the finished product of the guest bathroom - hip hip hooray!

I do travel quite a bit for my job. Usually it looks something like this:
Drive to airport --> Wait in airport --> Fly to destination --> Pick up rental car --> Get to hotel in time to sleep --> Wake up for meeting --> Perhaps drive to new destination and repeat hotel and meeting scenarios --> Return to airport --> Fly home --> Drive home from airport.

It is very rare that I am not alone on these adventures, and even more rare that I actually get to have an adventure. I know, I know - woe is me (how sad is it that I had to stop myself from typing "whoa is me" - I must have Joey Lawrence on the brain this morning). However, just a couple weeks ago, I was able to meet up with my co-worker in New Jersey for a whirlwind Northern Jersey/Manhattan trip. It was nice to have a comrade for my meetings, as well as someone to actually plan to go to dinner with (versus ordering room service or the quickest/fastest thing in route to a destination). Here are a few shots of our adventures (all in NYC, because, really, who has adventures in Jersey - no offense Snooki):

Traffic in Columbus Circle

Bright lights, big city!
 
Heaven in the form of a doughnut, from the Doughnut Plant

Union Square, and a man painted entirely gold. Where else would this happen?

Also, I just got back from my parent's house in North Carolina, where I went for the weekend to help my baby sister get ready for prom. Just me and ole Lucy driving down 95 to help this sweet girl get all prettied up for her last big high school hurrah!

The hubs actually has a couple days off this week (yay!). Unfortunately, the weather man is calling for some t-storms over the next couple of days, so we might be house-bound for most of it, which isn't entirely a bad thing!
