So it has been a busy week on the blog. I AM SLOWLY getting blog posts up from my trip. To start you all off I wrote a post full of a TON of fun statistics of a summary of my trip. For the Greece portion I am also taking an Art History Class and we have to create a journal of our trip for a majority of our grade in any format. For mine I’m going to be publishing blog posts for each day of the trip and then print them out to turn in so that I can have my travel notes on my blog FOREVER..for the entire internet world and because I’ll be honest I hate clutter and after a few moves the “travel journal” will sit in a box for years and then eventually end up at goodwill.
Over at CatholicMom.com they are doing another dose of Lawn Chair Catechism. This is such a cool program. It is basically a book study done via a blog link-up. It started last week and they are reading one of my FAVORITE BOOKS! So of course I have to join in. They are reading Joe Paprocki’s A Well Built Faith. Go read the first week of the book study to read how I gush over how much I love the book here.
Another awesome blog post that went up this week was the One year anniversary for the Not Alone Series Link-Up. I LOVE this link-up and all the awesome girls that have been linking up. They have become an awesome community of support and friends over the past few months and I can’t wait to meet some of them in JULY.
So when I was away I was super awesome at keeping up with my email using the awesome MAILBOX app for gmail on my iphone/ipad and a few times even had NO EMAIL in my inbox. There was just this one minor flaw. Any email that I needed to either file or deal with or needed a computer for I swiped to the left and told it to bring it back to my inbox in a month….and that month has passed. While I was away I swiped about 400 emails to the left and now my inbox is a MESS again…ahhhhhhhh….so alas my awesome emailing skills have failed me once again. One day I will learn how to handle email better….maybe….until then you will find me clearing out all the email.
This is really embarrassing but we had a huge flea bug problem here this past week. After getting bedbugs 2 years ago this seriously gives me MAJOR anxiety! I would wake up at 5am every morning just itchy! I’d been taking a ton of benydryl and so waking up super early wasn’t helping. We were finally able to get an exterminator to come out yesterday and spray and so far things are better…as long as you don’t look at my scratched up feet.
I LOVE these “Kids React To” videos. They are always hilarious and fascinating to see what they think and how weird things used to be (not that long ago)…but sometimes they just make me feel REALLY OLD. I like this one on Rotary Phones.
Sneak peak Greece picture! So this is one of my favorite pictures from Greece because I think it’s funny that the couple behind me photobombed my photo of me on the volcano.

Bummer about the fleas! Hope they go away quickly!
I had a great time looking through some of your pictures. What an awesome trip.

I hate email, I really, really do. And I’m also really, really bad at it.
What I’m getting at is that I feel your pain.
