Sorry about that. We landed around 7:00 Sunday night, got home around 9:00 and were at work early next morning. I'm never doing that again. I think I have only just recovered but I'm not really sure about that! My cold is hanging in there. I've been telling the kids that I went to Maine and all I got was this cold.

It was a good trip but way too short though I don't think we could have stayed in the cold any longer. We truly were happy to walk out to the car in the warm weather when we got to the airport.

Next day we brought the cats home and that made the house complete.

Since then it's been run, run, run all the way. This weekend is supposed to be our chance to relax but I think we will end up working most of it. This afternoon we need to do our laundry then tomorrow morning, bright and early, we have to go to the lab to get our blood drawn for our physicals. I hope we get the chance to go to the movies this weekend. I need to catch up.

Right now I am substituting for the art teacher. There are kids crowded around work tables, talking and laughing, and working, while I play nursemaid and make sure they stay under control.
