The Mock Dock

So, remember how my life is completely changing (for the good) and Mr. A and I are completely changing careers, schedules, homes, etc.? Yeahhh…it’s a lot right now. Not to get too personal here on a snark-site, but seriously, I have cried/laughed/cry-laughed/craughed literally HUNDREDS of times this week. Just to give you an idea of the insanity this is my life right now, I am sitting in a van headed to Michigan on a planned family vaca, driving nine hours away from an existence that currently includes leasing two apartments simultaneously (as of yesterday), with new graduate school classes looming next Wednesday, with a husband who is now awaiting Firemen Academy and meeting a gaggle of new brothers next Tuesday. Meanwhile, we will be moving over the next two or three weeks to a different side of town we know nothing about while trying to start the process of applying for a first mortgage and finding a house.

Sighhhhhh…(I’m craughing again)…

So, as this vacation is needed and timely, it is hard to drop everything and run…well…drive.

Anywhoo…here is some snark to finish this post. The Aufschneider gang is headed to that little tip between the “Mich” and the “Igan” parts of the state above. There is a loooooooooooooooooong bridge that connects them and our family will be WALKING ACROSS it come Labor Day. It will be our third year at such event. And, as you know, large events mean only one thing. People to mock. Just look at what I found last year: see here. I will have camera in hand, and will have a full report.
