Family & welcome home to rain

Papu, Grandma, Uncle Brad, & our family before heading out to SUNNY Arizona.


The one and only Nona

I'm Back.

Thankfully I had book club last night...
and a Jr. High girls basketball game to distract me...

This rain and these gray skies are enough to spiral one into depression.

Of course with returning home (after being gone for a month...)
there are many things to do...

put Christmas decorations away
unpack
launder clothes
grocery shop (and believe it or not some lady came up to me and said "I would hate to have your weekly grocery bill) and I tried to kindly tell her I had been gone for a month so there was NOTHING in my house. Who makes comments like that anyway?
deal with CM issues and get back on track for the new year
basketball games
basketball practice
4 wks of mail.... that was NOT fun.

anyway, my point is there is a lot to do and while I would love to update you with all of the wonderful things I did this last week it will have to wait...

because my son has gotten into the car and is honking the horn at me...
SERIOUSLY!

anyway...
Natty photos and stories...
meeting a new relative & staying at his home...
Book Club
and more.

Hopefully coming tonight...
O yeah I am also hoping to finally get out Christmas Cards... preferably before Valentines' Day...
