I promise! I've just been working dead out to get things done before everyone showed up for the retirement gig. We have a new roof and new floors downstairs too.
The retirement party was last Thursday and was just fantastic. We were able to skype Katie from Pakistan and folks came from all over the US even Hawaii! Then on the way home we were in a pile-up on the highway. We were #2 in a line of 5 cars and a sixth car left the scene. None of us was badly hurt and no one there got a ticket. I got to bed at 1:30 AM and then we had the ceremony on Friday at 9 AM. The rest of the day was spent visiting with friends and family. Saturday we went to the zoo and then had the Hospital Corps Ball that night. Sunday it was up at 4 AM to get all the kids to the airport for 6:30 flights. Monday we left Bob's little car at the shop for repairs and spent much of the day catching up on stuff. Then today we are off to Muleshoe to take care of some pressing business with my sister who is still in the nursing home there.
So.....I promise there will be photos and such soon. I know I have been a dismal failure at blogging lately but I do have tons of stuff to share if I can just get the uninterrupted time to do it! We'll be back in a few days and home for a week then we go to Jacksonville, FL for 3 days. Bob's a featured speaker there. Retirement is not so retiring so far!!! 8^)
Thanks so much for all your concern!
