Nostalgia

So I have been home now from Minnesota for about two weeks, and I miss it. ...Homemade breakfasts courtesy of my big brother Michael... yummy soft butter on bread from the bakery for afternoon snacks... Tivoing episodes of CSI Miami with my sister Lisa so we can appreciate, commercial free, the glorious bad acting of David Caruso as Horatio ... beautiful lakes... grand family gatherings and parties... really, sincerely kind and lovely people...
Now I know that Chicago has notoriously wonderful summers. And we also have a lake (singular). And I also realize everything about vacation implies a break from reality, and eventually life gets back in the swing. But I guess I'm feeling the post-Minnesota blues...

Its Friday night and my big task in my laundry.

...ugh... laundry... as inevitable as death and taxes... the reoccurring nemesis of Lovely Lula... it has more tags than my cat, which is hard to believe... (She is napping currently, instead of sitting on my head, pestering me for attention while I procrastinate doing laundry...)

Things will improve next week when I start entertaining kiddies at the Family Fun Festival at Millennium Park!

See all the fun family programming HERE! Anything thats on the Chase Promenade North is in my tent! So come say hello! And be sure to park your strollers in the designated stroller parking areas!
