I love my heated throw (so does Justice)!

I kept counting myself as 5'4" for a long time but I finally succumbed to admitting that I am only 5'3" now.

Only one thing to do (other than bathe Kirby after his fun stay at camp)! Lucky you!

Quick post - it is almost 4:30 am and I have to walk to the airport shortly.

Yesterday was emotional but good. Amazing how many lives my BIL touched and how many counted him as a family member in addition to our own. Lots of stories about his fabled chocolate chip cookies. And good family time. But it kept feeling like BIL should be there with us. Different from deceased DH's funeral as he had already left us way before. My SIL and remaining 2 BILs are having a hard time with the loss of another sibling. I stayed with SIL and eldest daughter for an extra couple of hours afterwards having a glass of wine and talking. At the hotel by 8 and asleep by 9 (though I woke up at midnight a couple of hours). Good thing I had a leftover 1/2 sandwich from the night before as there was no restaurant at the hotel.

Off to walk through the freezing cold. I may add more from the airport. Update: I am sitting at the gate at 5:15. We take off at 6 (hopefully) and should be back in Florida between 9-9:15.

Have a flying Friday!

Some somber moments today. I hope Liz is safely back to the hotel and found solace with family today. Peps comfort as you say goodbye to your beloved aunt.

A lot of shared dental trauma. Is it our age? Was dental care more brutal in the day. I have a friend who was literally strapped down in the dentist chair as a kid. She cannot even talk about teeth related things. Our family dentist is the best, kind, careful, skilled. My children think about dental care differently than I do, thanks to him.

Cold,cold here. -4 this morning. We store our precious diet coke in the garage. We have it wrapped in blankets so it won't explode.

A 34 inch waist is awesome! My DH is even bigger than that! He is trying to get back down to a 33, which is where he was when we met. He needs to fit into his suit by May for his daughter's wedding.

I vote the wine suit as well! Your aunt will be smiling from heaven!

Good gosh. I sat down to crank out a quick Treasurer's report that should have taken 20 minutes and 5+ hours later I am done! My email program for my role crashed, several phone calls for that, several phone calls from someone on the board who needed a mailing list, so I had to pull that from our donor list and clean it up then cross reference with an old list. Then call the bank because a CD had matured. yada yada yada.

I like Aquafor but it's Vaseline-y textured. Claudia and my dad swear by Vanicream.
