A Week To Breathe!!

Joe came home for the weekend, what a thrill, I dont realize how much I miss him until I see him and then I fill up a little bit. It was lovely to have him home, even if he brought a load of junk with him. You know your boy is home when you come downstairs on Saturday morning and there is a filthy kayak on your newly carpeted family room floor, bottles of soda and candy wrappers all over the place because the brothers had an all nighter playing nerf gun wars after the midnight movie. Did I really mind... no not really but dont tell them that.

Sunday afternoon Colin, Joe and the dog left for NH. I will go up on Tuesday with Elliot, he has to work Monday and could not get the day off and Colin still had some DIY to do that I prefer not to be around for so it all works. End result is I have a delicious day all to myself. Went for a run this morning, really humid even early and was in more pain than the other day, serves me right for not running for so long but it did feel really good, especially when I stopped!! Just catching up on all those jobs today that I never get to when I am working like a crazy woman. Done with my research class, grade pending, going to hit the book store to buy some trashy romance vacation novels, may bo tango dancing tonight (woo whooo!) and then off at the crack of dawn tomorrow. Spa in New Hampshire here I come!!
