day eight hundred and three

i'll be in mexico in a mere forty-eight hours (#68!!!) and thinking about everything i want to do on that trip made me realize that i've neglected the blog for a bit. so, quick update before i have to go get mis patos en una fila.



i put up a wee tree for christmas early december (#43). thanks to mom for sending that one my way! i only have a few ornaments, so it worked out nicely.

i also volunteered another shift with my seattleworks group, this time at the low-income housing institute (#91). we sorted through linen donations for the residents, and yeah, it's about as gross as it sounds. incredible how many people donate what should just be thrown away; i'd guess we could only keep about fifty percent of the pillowcases because the rest were too soiled or torn. on the other hand, most of the keepers were in better condition than my own sheets. whoops.

...anyway

...TO THE YUCATAN!!!
