a quiet afternoon

its nice to have a quiet afternoon in the apartment. doing laundry, getting ready for the week, planning my target list for the afternoon (why do i love that store so much?) matt's family just left; it was so fun to have them here. we tried to stay cool as much as possible, went to some great restaurants, the zoo, the outlets, a vb dodgers game. it felt like a mini vacation even though we were working most of the week. some pictures later.

there are flowers all over the house from my birthday and having company. i just counted six vases, which i know will all start losing their petals at the same time, but they are beautiful for now.

i'll put up some pictures of alaska, curves and other summer things soon.
