Our family of 3 will soon be a family of 4!
Details after the Holiday weekend!!
Have a happy and safe Fourth!
PS: A RANT
And stop annoying your neighbors with those dumb fireworks. Know when to call it quits. And save it for the 4th only. We don't need a pre-show days before or an encore days after!!
It's really happening. Trask and I are going away for a night without Taylor.
You may remember that this has happened once before, about a year ago, and as punishment for leaving him, I was plagued with food poisoning and spent our night alone in our apartment barfing, holding my puke bucket while Trask and I watched Hot Chick on the couch, semi-snuggling as he held my hair back.
I know this trip will be better! We are going to be staying at Boreas Bed + Breakfast Inn, and I am already excited... I love breakfast. Especially breakfast that I don't have to prepare.
I have never been to Long Beach, Washington, so I am very excited. I have heard that the beach combing there is great. I LOVE beach treasures, so I will be on the look-out! It will be so nice to have some time with Trask. I will miss Taylor like crazy, though.
Taylor is going to have a blast while we are gone. He is going with his Nana and Pampa up to their property in Trout Lake, Washington, to camp in their trailer and play in their dirt pile that was created for him. They haven't built a house on the land yet, but Taylor will be more than excited to spend time up there in the dirt, and with the tractor.
We're still trying to figure out what we're going to do with our dog, Maddie. I am hoping that one of Trask's co-workers can be bribed to take her for one night with perhaps a bottle of wine or two.
I just shared my thoughts on a very touchy subject of mine on my sweet friend Marie's Blog, Behind the Scenes of a Life in Progress.
Let me know what you think! And THANK YOU MARIE, for allowing me to be a part of your blog! You are welcome to guest blog on mine ANY TIME!
Why hello there. Good to see you.
I thought I'd answer a couple of the questions that were emailed in to me... are you ready for some answers? Please note that that does not mean that they are legitimate answers, but they are my answers.
Question: What is your favorite quote?
Answer: I have several quotes that I like, but two that I really love. And no, I am not choosing some of the amazing things that I have made up over the years. Basically anything I say is amazing and totally quotable, but it's not always about me.
Here are my two favorite quotes:
- There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One is roots; the other, wings. - Hodding Carter
- We could have never loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it. - George Eliot
Question: If you could go anywhere for vacation, where would you go?
Answer: After stopping in Florida to harass Winn for awhile, I'd go spend as much time possible in New Zealand. I have always wanted to go there. And to stay there. For forever. Or just for three to five weeks. I have never been.
My favorite place that I have already been to is Kauai, Hawaii. The eastern part of the island is my favorite, but I also love the North Shore.
If anyone wants to trade 50 pounds of awesomely hot fat for a few plane tickets to NZ or Kauai, please let me know and we'll make the arrangements accordingly. Totally a fair trade, because you can stick the fat wherever you want.
Thanks for the questions! Keep them coming and I'll answer more soon!
xo,
Shauna
You've got questions, and I have answers. Please email me with questions you have, about anything. Periodically I will post the questions and my answers to them. Not all the answers will be correct or true, but that's okay.
Questions can be about me, or just random fact questions or just mysteries of the world. I know it all. Or I have a smart-ass answer for it all.
Come on, it'll be fun. The first person to send me a question, either via email or a comment on this post, will get a prize. A good prize. Not a dumb one.
Questions can be emailed to: lemondropstudio@gmail.com
I'm waiting...

How many times have you sprayed yourself directly in the eyes while trying to take the lid off of the can of PAM cooking spray?
My score: 4 times.
Why am I so desperate for a blog post that I give my readers more examples of how NOT graceful I am?!
