Stuff and more stuff....
Coffee of the day is...ummm...er...Guatamala Huehuetenango. Yup..had to think about it a minute. Things have been a bit of a blur since we got home Tuesday night. I even have an annoying scrape on my elbow I have absolutely no recollection of receiving but it doesn't make it any less annoying whenever I irritate it bending it.
We've enjoyed a visit from Morgan and Nora and Nora got to met the elusive Auntie Anna. Sometimes it's Hard to get the whole family in one place at one time so we just have to take advantage of those times when we can get some of them together some of the time.
Granny has been moved to her new digs...some of her "things left behind" have been allocated to new homes...some, I'm afraid are going to have to find homes outside the "family". Hehehe...no fighting over the family heirlooms among these siblings..."No, I don't need it, you take it...no please I insist..you have the best place for it." I don't think any of us really "need" more stuff. Maybe the best part is just going through the stuff, recalling fond and maybe not so fond memories these things really represent. I know I enjoyed watching the reactions the 3 of them had whenever some thing in particular was uncovered, discovered and in some cases..re-covered. snort. It was just plain enjoyable to be in the company of those who were able to be present.
Since we lost a couple days of our week at home, I had to rearrange a few appointments, but I did manage to get the cats in for their checkup and vaccinations. I'm proud to report ~Elmo received high praise for his half pound loss in weight. hhhmmm...Dr Alden did mused that another 2-3 pounds less wouldn't hurt him any. Geesh..isn't that what they all say! When was the last time you heard the Dr (any doctor) encourage weight gain?
So, this morning was filled with getting Morgan and Nora back to the airport and home again...roasting coffee...fitting in the trip to the grocery store for milk and other essentials (albeit 2 days after getting home)...getting our drugs before we run out while we are away again and even squeezing in that haircut today that I had scheduled for tomorrow. Whew...now I only have to make dinner and go to a class at a Bead store I signed up for last month. What WAS I thinking...it sounded like a fun thing to do at the time.
Hope you are all having a fine day.......
