TAP New York


There could be a mere 4-5 weekends left in our lives sans child. That is quite possibly the most exciting sentence I HAVE EVER WRITTEN. 4-5 weeks! This weekend was split between getting things done on Saturday and having some fun on Sunday. Today we drove to Hunter Mountain and participated in this year's TAP New York, a festival celebrating New York microbrews and local food fare. Not a bad way to spend a Sunday.

The setting was serene - a mountain hardly bare of snow yet already blasting random rays of sunshine that gave off just enough warmth to hang out on the patio with a taste of an IPA and a bite of pistachio pecorino in hand. Yum Yum! Mind you it was still a beer festival so there were certainly the groups of not-so-conservative connoisseurs but for the most part everything was perfect. Hot sauce, hops, grills, barley, sun, mountains, and most importantly lots of people gathered on a newly green mountain lawn just excited to be there.

So, it's Sunday, and we have to start yet another week of work tomorrow. But have you taken a look at the ticker at the top of this page yet? It's officially less than 3 weeks until we could pass court! There's something about being in the 2+ week range that makes me smile a bit bigger, as if that's humanly possible at this point.

Honestly-that sounds like a perfectly wonderful way to spend a Sunday.

And, 2ish weeks! Way, way better than 3 weeks.

(I agree with you about the stay at home mom vs. working mom thing. It's completely situational. It's just interesting, in my opinion, why people choose what they do!)

Did you know that I use your ticker as mine? I know that's weird, but it's a mental thing. If I add one back on my blog, I'll fixate on it like I did with my referral wait. (It drove me crazy!) So whenever I need to, I just click on over to your blog and read your counter. And it puts a big smile on my face, too.
Thanks for the loan ;)
