Erin's Goals and Laundry detergent

I'm still working on getting used to the idea of a blog. I feel that Jason has an unfair advantage over me to post spontaneous subject matter with appropriate pictures. My cell phone does not take pictures - it's a fossil. Working on getting a new one though.

Lately, my life has been consumed by work, all of which is very exciting, and very confidential. So, the remainder of my life consists of things such as dishes and laundry. My current domestic debate: Do I like 2x concentrated laundry detergent? It saves plastic/waste using a smaller container, but I am just not convinced that using such a small amount is just as effective. I lean more toward the school of thought that more is more. Hm. And then, I think, who wants to read a blog about my laundry detergent philosophy? :o)

Yesterday, I did escape the grind of housework to enjoy an afternoon at a Christmas fair called Mistletoe and Magic. It's quite the event here in Tyler, but my first time to attend. I found a cute new jacket (see pic), and also enjoyed their live entertainment. There was one act in particular that I found to be quite entertaining. It was grown women "clogging" in tap shoes to 70's music. They were in tie-dye tee shirts and had big, flourescent green frills at the bottom of their jeans. NOTE: If I had a cell phone with a camera, there would be a picture of these adorable women in their ridiculous costumes. They inspired me to consider returning to one of my great loves - dance. I might take up a dance class of some form at the junior college next semester. A sincere thanks to the cloggers for their inspiration!
