Happy Birthday Alyssa!

Happy Birthday Alyssa!

I think fuel efficiency is the main key with my drive. Plus I have a coupon.

which is the Budget Matto?

any recommendations or votes for a new car for matto? I think it is on it's last legs.

why did the clock start again?

Thanks to AO my dining room is not only much cleaner, it's decorated for Halloween. Makes me feel more cheerful just walking into it.
I've been unpacking a little at a time and am down to less than one suitcase to go -- some of the clothes still need put away for the season, but I'm sorting through and pitching things as I go so it may take awhile.
I woke up this morning for the first time in awhile because of sufficient sleep, not pain so the world is looking much more beautiful again.

Matto & mom, I'll be down around noon tomorrow. Dylan will be ready to eat ribs.

On a roll. I've got all but the last little bit of mail taken care of (those things I need to read closer before I do anything). I've also changed out all those pictures of Rita and Brandon for pictures from Prague, also got a layer of dust off the frames. Deciding if I still have enough energy to tackle unpacking a suitcase, maybe after lunch and a rest.

We're turning back now.

Everyone just relax, Matto unloaded the bags. Back to your positions.

Made it home around 3:00 I think. I've sorted through the mail, paid a bill, gone to the library, made a doctor's appointment. I think I'm done for the weekend.
The drive home was nice, I only hit rain between Clinton and Mt. Pulaski. The hip was nice and didn't start hurting until I got in the house, carried in some groceries; so yes, Matthew, I'll need help unloading. Thanks.

Are we there yet mom?

Mom left ohio around 9. she will need help unloading the car matto.

Back to School night....get to meet all of Frank's teachers one last time.

Kamden and Asher are managing to sleep through the pounding, and
Dax is only going nuts on occasion.

Roofers are here. Dax is on high alert. Glad grandma is here to hold Asher while I hush the dog

Got my passport and visa packet, now am all ready to go to the States!

YAY!!

Yeah! Merel!

We have plane tickets! On October 5th I will arrive in Chicago and on October 7th in Bozeman. See you soon!

Very nice Merel!

why doesn't Nathaniel put approaching events: Merel arrive in USA

congrats Aunt Merel!Can't wait to see you!

Happy to hear you're coming soon Merel, sure Nathaniel is even happier.

That is great news! I agree with Tracy - I can't wait to hear about your plans to move.

And the clock stops! Yay Merel! Let's count down to your arrival next.

Congrats Merel!

Yea!

Congrats merel!!!!!

Just got back from the consulate and my visa has been approved! Just had to answer a few questions, the consular officer did not even ask to see any pictures or additional documentation.

And Merel - Best of luck - although how could they second guess the true love they will see in your eyes :)!

1) try Malwarebytes anti-malware software
2) creamy peanut butter
3) creamy peanut butter is the only correct answer for #2

1) no
2) Butter and honey

3 - kinda) Hang in there Rita!! My mantra is "this challenge isn't going to last forever"

1) no
2) Depends on my mood.

Damn girl, now I'm going to have to make hot fresh yeast rolls for dinner this week!

With 15 hours remaining, I'd just like to say good luck to Merel, we're all counting on you.
Just keep in mind that we all love you!

Two questions.

1. Has anyone ever had a virus on their search engines that just kept redirecting you to a "sponsored site"?

2. What is your favorite condiment or topping for hot fresh yeast rolls?

Just to encourage Rita, on the night before Brandon went back to work, Kamden woke up screaming at 4 a.m., Asher (who's been a perfect baby most of the time) was up early and fussing. Just didn't want her to get too complacent about how in control she was. Grandma would like to be about ten years younger so she could be a little more help around here.

they have been up there for so long it felt like 3 days.
