Well, it has been a while since I updated, so I thought I'd fillyou in on my life. We unpacked over 3000 new books for my library and it took me just over a week to get them processed, organized and shelved. Our shelves are very full and needed to be rearranged a bit.
Then, every night I would go home and box up my life. We are adding onto the back of our house and needed to box up an old bedroom, a bath, and the garage, plus patio in two weeks. Now we are getting our new pantry and bath while the rain dries up enough to cut ground for the new part. I've taken a few progress pictures to show my children and others interested. I gave up on the gym for a few weeks as the boxes wore me out, but now I need to go back...
Tonight I'm going to the temple, as I have not gone this month and feel the need. I have a week until Maddy flies to Sapporo, the mester ends, March hits, and life picks up tempo again. I have actually enjoyed the rain for the clear skies and green land that it brings. My joints feel it, but what good day is without pain anyway? We are working on cleaning up boxes which got moved/packed too fast and may send out some clothes/books/ etc. to DI, but need to clear out clutter or die amongst it. :) I get to go get Afton in 6 weeks or so and Stills seems to enjoy his college drama class on Monday nights. He is planning on going to a local college after graduation and working for a while. A friend just got to the Brazil MTC and will be serving/learning Portuguese for a few weeks in Sao Paolo. I need to write him and let him know his mom seems OK. The first few weeks are hard. Now Maddy has been gone for 10 weeks and I'm almost feeling I can do this. ;)
I look forward to visits from Giles and Jimenez family reps. and will fly home to dad in March. Please keep in touch, V
