Travel or Be Practical?


My assistant just asked me if she should buy a laptop or go to Europe. What kind of question is that? You can experience great things and provide fond memories for the rest of your life or own a laptop for a few years? I realize that I am the last person she should ask advice about that. During the last episodes of Sex in the City, she and I argued whether or not Carrie should go to France. I thought it was a once in a life time opportunity. Who cares about her job? I didn't even think it mattered that the Russian was too busy to spend time with her. LIVE IT UP!


I have been dreaming about going to Morocco for years. Besides the interesting cultural mix they have, I love their furniture, tiles, etc. I am dieing to spend a couple of days in the markets buying things to ship back. I know that I could sell a bunch of it on e-bay and pay for the trip. The only problem is coming up with the money to
fund the whole thing. Now that we are trying to buy a house with some Mediterranean influences, my obsession has started building again. I have even played around with trip itineraries on Expedia.com. We can each get a round trip ticket to Madrid for about $500. It is cheaper and we can enjoy Spain as we make our way down to Morocco. Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming... For now, I'll continue to look for over-priced imported decor on the internet.

about me

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.

For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.

Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .

Named after two Greek Goddesses, which were selected because I needed luck for buying a house and getting pregnant. I am not superstitious, but somehow it worked! The house was bought in March & I found out I was pregnant in June of last year.
