Mr. Peanut and Harry Potter are in the Trash

Yea! Abe finally got new glasses! As you can see, Mr. Peanut (his pair of glasses that was missing, well, one glass) and his Harry Potter-ish glasses from his college days are now in the trash. It was a historic moment in the life of Abe. He's a pack rat of sorts, so I know that letting go of non-functioning (let alone non-fashionable) glasses was a lot for him. I love the new glasses. I think they make Abe look very handsome and distinguished.

To show you that I'm just as dorky as my husband (I swear he's the only one in America who's still has a "Vote for Pedro" t-shirt), I've posted a picture I took last Sunday night.

I got my haircut and loved it, so I wanted to make sure I knew how to recreate the look. At 11 p.m. Sunday night I got out the digital camera. I know it's nerdy, but hey, it helps!



I have also been dreaming a lot about Punta Cana, which is where Abe and I went for our honeymoon. We had a great time and our resort was perfect. My latest thoughts about Punta Cana were magnified when I found a CD in our car of music from there. Listening to it in the car helps me relax. And, ever since we went there I have loved pineapple. I loved eating so much fresh pineapple at every meal and, as you can see from the swim-up bar photo, I also loved the pina coladas. Now whenever I eat pineapple it takes me back to that place. We just saw a deal there in the paper, but we're planning a trip to the Canadian Rockies this year to attend Abe's cousin's wedding. That's OK -- I smile to myself whenever I open up pineapple yogurt in my lunch.
