Ciao Bella!

We are departing for the airport in approximately 4.5 hours. In the last 2 days I have covered all the essentials:
-Pay Bills : CHECK
-Stop Mail: CHECK
-New Hair: CHECK

Normally, I get all excited to get a hair cut/ color. Then I get there and the EXPERTS aka hair stylists say something like, "Yes, yes I understand. We will make it really natural and blendly like**"
**actual words sound more experty. Then, I get home and I am all...I kind of have highlights but I wanted MORE. BOO NATURAL. So this time I said-no talking me out of it! Blonde. NOW.

-Pack
So I am going to ITALY tomorrow-nbd right.  According to "travel expert" Rick Steves, I should have started packing at least a week ago.  Bad Kelsey. I started last night and got this accomplished:

Not bad I would have to say. Take that EXPERTS.
Ricky boy had a few other suggestions that I thought were semi amusing (See http://www.ricksteves.com/plan/tips/womenpack.htm):
-If you won't wear it more than three times, don't bring it


PPSSSHHH. I am going for 2 weeks Rick Steves. 2 WEEKS. I need to look cute for Italy, I will NOT be wearing the same outfit 3 TIMES. No but seriously, I am so crafty I got a lot of variety into that teeeny tiny suitcase!

-You should pack about 20 percent of your body weight. preferably no more than 20 lbs


.....shifty eyes.....am going on a diet as soon as I get back.........




Well I hope you all join me on my adventure around the world (and all the adventures in my home when I get back! **Shameless self promotion-READ MY BLOG. Also, leave comments! I love your comments-they are like food to my SOUL)

CIOA BELLAS (Bye Beautifuls!)

Traveling Fool

I feel like I have been/will be traveling for like a whooooole month after the dust in my life settles. Which is not yet. First, I moved= crazy. Then 4 days later I went home to Seattle = craZAY. Next, I am leaving for Italy a WEEK from Thursday= CRA-ZY mmmmkay. Internet I promise I am not making excuses (cause, no excuses man!) but this is the first time I have touched my computer in like 2 weeks. But, I have thought about you a lot-if that makes you feel better. 

I started off my most recent trip with this little gem:

SkyMall-I LOVE YOU. Seriously, I have already found a reason that I need these mermaid flippers. Tsunamis people! My personal irrational fear-freaking giant tsunami taking out California and making it straight to my door step. You never know! I NEED these.

Another thing I got to experience was -demon dog. Please observe:

If it is not sticking out in your face obvious this mini dog had a freaking 5th leg...if ya know what I mean....ehm. Besides for that this dog had soulless demon dog white eyes that I couldn't take a picture of because I was sitting in the park pretending to text whilst taking this picture. They reminded me of this:

AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!

Anyway, Internet Housewife Adventures is traveling for the next couple of weeks. Check back for ITALY- creepy Italian trees and backwards hand waving. Yes yes and BEAUTY  of course!  CIAO  

*** OOOH OOOH also! When I FINALLY get  my apartment set up there will be pictures! I llloooovvvee this place. If I could give it a giant hug every night I WOULD.
