A whole lot of new this week.
I don't want you to be jealous, and I wasn't going to say anything, but I assumed you'd probably figure it out this week, so I might as well tell you: I have the whole week off work. Yep, the whole thing! And, while I have the whole week off, I'm also dog sitting (hence all the pictures of the cute pup) so going out of town wasn't really an option. Instead, I was trying to decide what I'd like to do in the city in January for a little staycation. Of all my brainstorming the one thing that was always on my lists was 'go to the museum', which to me is the perfect example of taking a break, learning a little bit, and actively being a member of the city you live in and what it has to offer- not just being a bystander. Then, the more I thought about it, the more turning a little break into a weeks worth of new things sounded like a good idea. So, this week the plan is to go to 5 different museums in 5 days. I'm also going places I've never been, and I'm excited to see what I find...
