Ack. I’ve been bad about responding to comments. Usually I blog throughout the day, answering comments at will. But now I only have time to log in at night.

Another exhausting day today. Went shopping with Kevin and Mom. He wanted to buy shoes (tax free in PA, miss that in GA ) I [...]

Today was a “visit the family” kind of day. Grandma Dorothy invited us over for lunch at 1. I was thinking maybe…Sandwiches? Foolish me. Spaghetti and meatballs, and a salad. For dessert? Huge homemade apple dumplings.

I’m back. I’m safe. I’m exhausted, mentally and physically. I will post all about my weekend when I’ve had time to decompress and think ab0ut things.

In the meantime, I’m going to go read up on you guys and find out what I missed!

Good to be home
