May they rest in Peace
I just literally finished spending a week with Keith's parents and grandmother. What's that you ask? Wasn't I just in NY for two weeks with family? Why, yes, yes I was but the day I got back home they arrived a couple of hours later. I drove all night by myself (yes, night), walked in the door and unpacked my car within minutes, Keith came home and wanted lunch (Welcome home honey), Unpacked my clothes, put Em to bed.... then I was so tired at that point I felt like I was going to vomit and the room was spinning so I decided to curl up on the couch. About an hour after I awoke the In-laws showed up... wanting dinner. Then later that night Ernesto hit, we had no power and bunch of debris to clean up.
So, it has been a busy past few weeks. NY was great. I love being there and even though every day is a whirl wind of events I enjoy just being with my family. I love being in NY and being surrounded by memories of growing up and being comfortable in my environment.
Keith's family just left an hour ago. I don't know how to describe their visit... it is always chaotic... I guess that is the word. It has been awhile since I have hung out with an older person. I forgot some of the funny things they do. Every time Keith's grandmother talked about somebody that had died she would say in mid sentence "May they rest in Peace". I heard that phrase allot this past week people... She would also whisper when talking about somebody alive if it was in a gossipy sort of way... ya know, so the person in NY would not hear them all they way here in NC.
Anyway... today is cleaning, get the house back in order day. Today is the day that Em takes a nap... a nice long quiet nap. I don't have anything exciting or witty to report... I am too damn tired to write such a thing. I will say however that I am oh so excited about sleeping in my bed tonight. Especially since our air mattress deflated early in the night then Keith's dad knocked on our door wanting bottled water at 3:30 am.
On to something else... a few random thoughts in no order.
1. I am still upset about putting our cat to sleep. As the Vet. said we were doing the right thing but it still sits badly with me. I miss him and I feel horribly for having done it.
2. Steve Irwin... How horrible. His wife and kids... his parents.
3. Babies. Whether in relation to myself, my sister Kris, or Kari...Why?
4. Been wanting to move out of base housing and rent a house. Need lots of money to move.
5. Can't wait to switch Cell phone companies soon.
6. The holidays are already coming. Yikes!
7. Must touch base with all my friends.
8. It getting darker out earlier and earlier already.
9. Must loose weight again.
So that about sums it up people. Not very exciting, I know but it is what it is. The next couple of days are going to be cleaning, laundry, and getting us all back on schedule. I will cya around... Later people.
