August 12

So what does one do on her first day back from vacation…unpacks her suitcase, all the clothes were clean thanks to Tara (Thanks again Tara!)

I also had three weeks of mail to go through… do you know how much mail you can get in three weeks…. One pile to be shredded, one pile just trash, one pile all magazines and catalogs to toss out later, a pile of newspapers, thank goodness it only comes twice a week, a pile of bills, another pile of personal mail, a small (very small) pile for Mike, and a pile for Jonathon, including one very interesting looking very large envelope from UD.

I had to cook, imagine that. And no one waited on us, no one came and asked us if everything was ok… it was boring

I also looked through the thousands of photos we took and tried to remember every minute of every photo. Where were we, what were we doing, what was the weather like…

We were in Socorro New Mexico getting gas on a very warm day, no, make that a hot day. I was talking to Jonathon on the phone, and we were pulling out onto the highway when I saw something moving..

And what am I doing today… car shopping… don’t ask.
