(I know I am weird… I like odd numbers!) Like 3:33.. I always seem to see that hour on the clock!? weird ~ I know!

It’s funny you’re an odd-numbered person– I’m an even-numbered girl. I was SO happy when my daughter was born on the 14th!
And I can’t afford a house cleaner– but I might be hiring one anyway!

Yes, you must move to California – Orange County to be exact and we can do the beach 🙂 I know Tammy will miss you, but she can come visit.
