Today has looked a lot like the picture I posted above- we’ve been in the airport for most of it. Our originally plane was set to leave Manchester, NH at 6:20 am this morning, and we had planned to wake up around 3 am to drive to the airport. We were again using Southwest Airlines Vacations, which we had luck with when we went to Disney World last year. The phone rang this … [Read more...]
After doing all of my research last weekend and trying to get my best price on Hyundai Elantras from different dealerships here in Western Massachusetts, I finally decided to buy a car. If you remember, I was looking for a 2012 Hyundai Elantra Limited in Red Allure with the technology package.

I always look forward to the Super Bowl, for a variety of reasons. While I sometimes enjoy the game (and look forward to a New England Patriots Defeat), I like the gathering of friends, the commercials, and the food. The Hangar is always crazy, and you have to order Wings ahead of time. We decided that the following are choices for what we can have during the big game. … [Read more...]

I have been thinking about habits versus routines, and how long a good estimate when it comes to a habit versus a routine. Specifically, I have started going to the gym again regularly, and have tried to determine what stage I am in in regards to a habit or a routine.
