Disappearances

So I disappeared for a couple months. There wasn't all that much exciting going over the summer, just work.

Things have been busy in the last couple months. We drove to FL for Thanksgiving to see my parents. 12 hours in a car is not that fun, but it was good to see them and their new house. We had a quiet week of reading by their pool and enjoying the good weather down at the beach.

Since Thanksgiving, work has been busy. We finally made the move into the new building this past weekend, so the past couple weeks have been packing and the few will be unpacking. I love the new building. I had the furniture people take all my furniture apart and set it up so I could see out the window, so now I see sky and trees over my computer screens. Much better from the last building where I could go all day without seeing daylight.

Pete is getting over the flu, which has been fun for all involved. I felt bad for him last weekend. In the height of his illness our washer broke. He had to drag himself out of bed and vacuum all the water out and then we went to Sears for a new washer and dryer. They were our Christmas gifts to one another. They are nice and very quiet.

We are getting ready to head north for Christmas. I am keeping my fingers crossed for snow. It is the one time I will be able to see it. More on the trip later.
