journey of life

…when you are waiting to move into your new house!

We’ve been incredibly busy these past few weeks, but that’s actually been a very, very good thing. Especially when you are anxious to move into a house! Between appointments, birthday celebrations, Father’s Day celebrations, car repairs, weddings, births, photography and the United States Grand Prix we’ve clocked a lot of miles on our vehicles and have been in and out of Delaware, North Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C. and Indiana.  Travelin’ fools, we are.

But, in a little over a week we will be home at last, in a real live home of our own again.  How sweet it is!

Okay, I am a skeptic. How much difference can there be between eyelash curlers? Much more than I could have ever thought. I don’t know what makes this curler different, but it definitely is much, much better than any I’ve ever tried before. Go ahead, spend the extra money (retails around $18) and get one. It will curl even your stick straight eyelashes.

We’ve created a new travel blog: travels of life.
