Written on March 21, 2008. Written by lorene.

Er..well..not exactly. However I did see his portrait in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC. A few weekends ago I was supposed to go to Vermont to snowboard with my sisters, but the weather was calling for rain, freezing rain, and then cold and windy. Not good. So Friday night we decided not […]

Chi-Town Weekend

Written on November 12, 2007. Written by lorene.

US Dollar TANKS!!

Written on September 20, 2007. Written by lorene.

The Euro reached an all-time high against the dollar today - $1.40. Even worse $1usd = $1cad. This sucks..I don’t foresee traveling outside the US anytime soon. Remember the time when Canadian dollars were like monopoly money? Ahh..the good old days.

The Mommy & Me Roadtrip is on! Theoretically this should have been 2 days but since my mom’s flight came in 2hrs late (thus landing on Thursday) it’s all one day! I had booked us a room at the downtown Radisson. So after I picked her up we went back to the hotel and crashed. […]
