Busy. Oh, so busy. Why the title? It was at least 95 degrees today in Portland. I would argue that was around 25 degrees too hot. We had temperatures in the 40's earlier in the week. I can't say that I am thrilled with the transition from May to August temperatures.
Tomorrow I head to a conference on Mt Hood. Right now the snow sounds very appealing as I have every fan in the metro area blowing on my face. The timing of the conference couldn't be worse as I try to move and catch up on everything else at work/home. On the other hand, I am looking forward to staying at Timberline Lodge and relaxing with colleagues. It is one of the best venues for a conference. It will be the first time in 3 years that I have attended so it is good to be back.
Moving. It is happening. We picked up the keys on Wednesday and have started moving things in. My mom was here this week and packed up my entire living room and kitchen. I can't believe how we lucked out with this place. My apartment has already rented to the first person who looked at it.
Overall, I had a really busy week with my mom's visit and the whole move thing. It was a really nice week. We did get out a little - a day trip to Astoria, Oregon, celebrated a friend's birthday, had dinner with a college friend (one of the coolest guys I've ever known), celebrated a new place and a friend's new job, a concert (Girlyman) and Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden. I hope to post some pictures when I get back from the conference.
