Having been getting to know my "new" routine has been unusual... but I'm coming around. I'm learning that I do NOT need to answer to all - though it is hard to break that when I've lived that for too many years to count. Friday night my daughter and 4 kids spent the night and we went to my nephew's marching band performance at the High School Homecoming game. We had a very nice time, and a very good visit until the wee hours of the morning. Saturday I stayed with the little ones and gave her money for a tire, one that she had not noticed, front driver's side was completely slick. She returned shortly and had the kids vacuum and pick up their things and left. I had the place to myself by noon. I heard from an old friend and was invited to go out to the country for a little R and R and though waiting on other plans to materialize, I just decided to throw an overnight bag in the car and go, so I did. And I had the most amazing, relaxing time.
