Home Sweet Home

We are home!

Deborah and Isabelle picked us up at SEA-TAC last night and we had a joyous reunion. It was well worth the trouble to get home to see that little smiling face. My bed felt soooooo good last night.

The trip was long but uneventful. Everything worked ok except for an hour delay at takeoff when the pilot announced that the radio had too much static and they they were going to replace it. They made up half the time in flight. Customs was a breeze, but it took an hour for all our bags to arrive on the carousel. We collected everything, then had to put them on another conveyor to send them to another baggage carousel. We finally got everything loaded in the car and then made the long drive home.

Phone calls, mail, unpacking, grocery shopping, and a pedicure are on the list of activities for today. Michael woke up at 3 am and started working with HP on fixing his computer. They did a Hail-Mary and it actually booted up so he could at least backup everything before he turns it off, maybe for the final time. Won't know for a few days if it is dead or if it can be fixed.

Now its back to regular life. I have to make my own bed, pick up my shower towel and hang it up, and -- gasp -- make our own meals.
And clean. I will take some time to recover from the jetlag and fatigue.

Good news: neither Michael nor I GAINED any weight! Wooo Whooo.

This is Beverly and Michael signing off until September. See you then.
