The week is off to a busy start between doctor appointments, school uniform shopping, and medical stuff for school. My daughter A came home late Friday night. My dad flew her home, and he stayed with us for the weekend, flying home Sunday night. His visit was awesome! We drove around and took him to … Continue reading The Last Days of Summer

Lovely Weekend, Lovely Week
We went to the same church as last week today. The pastor preached boldly from scripture about wives submitting to their husbands and husbands loving their wives sacrificially. It makes me excited to go back. I emailed about getting involved with some volunteering. This weekend was lovely. We took care of errands together, but more … Continue reading Lovely Weekend, Lovely Week
Trying to Recover Me
Tuesday and Wednesday I volunteered at the dog shelter. A dog I fell in love with the first day was adopted the second day, which made me happy. I came home exhausted, strangely exhausted, but with the satisfaction of making living, loving little animals' day better. Today I am running on little sleep and have … Continue reading Trying to Recover Me
Nice Day

In Hawaii
We arrived in Hawaii yesterday afternoon. The dogs arrive today. Right now we're driving along Fairington Highway on the leeward side. It was so sweet. When we arrived at the airport, C had someone there to give is leis with real flowers. Gorgeous. Write later.
Moving Week
This is day 3 with the movers here. Tomorrow is the last day, then we have a party to go to and then a final cleaning. Once that's done, we fly to Hawaii. From Hawaii, after we spend a few days there, we fly on to our new home. I'm not doing the move out … Continue reading Moving Week
L’s Last Day
The movers come to start packing our house tomorrow, so L's last day with us is today. Her coordinator will be picking her up today. Having an exchange student has been a wonderful cultural experience, and L has become family to us. We wanted to take her out for a nice lunch, but the car … Continue reading L’s Last Day
