smitten with monday!

i’m back from new york!  it was a whirlwind trip.  i’ll be blogging about it soon.  my phone fried on the way to new york so i’ve been out of touch for over a week and apparently greta’s eyeball exploded or had a flesh eating disease or something crazy while i was gone.  whew.  so this week’s smitten with monday will be a little short.  thanks for the patience, concern, well wishes, etc.  we love you guys.  seriously.

we’re smitten with:

*family.  i can’t tell you how much this trip meant to me.  i got to spend time with family i haven’t gotten to spend time with since i was little.  i got to see pictures of my dad as a child and of his parents and grandparents.  i’d never seen pictures of my great grandparents and only one of my grandparents.  i can’t tell you what this meant to me.  i saw family records with my maiden name (rea) on them.  more rea’s!!!  also, i found out how you spell my italian name!  cinequemani!

*downsizing.  i’m currently working on making sure i keep my love of material things in check.  and i looooove to shop.  so.  yeah.  it’s difficult.  but we don’t have a lot of storage space in our home.  and we are currently really broke.  so i thought it was a good time to keep things in perspective.

*greta’s eyeballs.  turns out we need those.  well, her more than me.  but her eyeballs do play a part in my life.  haha:)

this week’s picture is of my best friend christie and i outside grand central station.  which if you’ve never seen, is beautiful.

greta has some crazy eye bacteria bug thing! it’s like super rare or something. but she had surgery and all is looking well. no pun intended. she still has some healing to do but everything is going well. i’ll pass along the message!
