Is that a garage door on my ceiling?: August 2010

Ladies and Gentlemen,

this is Summer Mambo 2010…….

{Kind of loses something in the translation, doesn’t it?}

I randomly came across the Disney version of this song today and it annoyingly stuck itself deep in my psyche and so I thought that perhaps a blog entry {{{covering my lack of summer posts}}}using the lyrics might get rid of it.

And last but certainly not least, the thing that has really been keeping be from blogging……………………………………….

We are in the process of trying to buy this house. Our closing date is September 1. I think that is a little optimistic. But just to give you a little idea of the HUGE deal this is in my life---I am going to do a HUGE reveal…………………………………………………………………………………………………..

As my blog title says—I truly do live under a garage door and have done so for 15 years—here is the proof--
