Susie, let's organize your room!

The title of this post would never appear in my internal monologue--
well maybe heavily laden with sarcasm or after several cocktails. I
would much rather be making a mess than picking one up. Nonetheless, I
spent a good portion of every childhood Saturday getting my room
probably not clean, but at least "decent" as my parents said. My
sister, however, took great zeal in organizing her disheveled sister
and often hailed the war cry, "Susie, let's organize your room!" to
which I could only say yes. Someone else actually wants to clean? Did
I hear that right? Even if it meant Annie donning viser and clipboard,
it was better than facing the chaos alone and the result was probably
much better with her at my side(or breathing down my neck). And now,
even as adults, Annie pitches in with some organizing hours and this
particular project was long overdue (recall the picture of Finn with
his hands and mouth overflowing with emroidery thread). All I had to
do was put all that tangled thread into duffle with the box my mom
gave years ago at Christmas, give it to Annie and several days later
it reappeared completely done! Yahoo! Thanks Annie!

Winter

It feels like winter already and it seems like the color is all
fading--except in the city!

Amazing toddler Robocop photoshoot. Halloween lives!

Just go here and see what I mean.

Unbelievable!


Okay. Murphy beds are awesome. They make so much sense if you live in a small space but often they are kind of rickety and the cladding is just okay. This video about an Italian furniture maker, Resource Furniture, who makes compact multi-use furniture is amazing. I'm ready to become their Seattle sales rep. Seriously.
Click here to be amazed.

Not making a thing!

Hawaii 411: paradise found.
1. Pololu Black sand beach
2. New suit from cousin Boston (and endless hours of running around
playing cars)
3. Beaches galore. I buried Finn up to his neck in the sand and he
lived it.
4. Aloha.

Working it out fall style



I guess if your pea coat is fleece instead of wool, it's the perfect cool weather work-out wear. Breathable, washable, stylish. Finn is working on some resistance training here, bulking up for his beach debut in Kona next week.
