It's starting to heat right up again.
We're in the last day of having our oldest daughter home and tomorrow she leaves for Honduras, that is, if Delta airlines can keep things moving right along! We had a weekend full of send-off activities for her and that was a LOT of things going on. Now packing for two years into two bags AND being a woman, we'll see how that all goes!
Then we have two weeks before the other kids move into their college apartments and then we'll have an empty nest. Oh, my! We had our three kids so close together that transitions are happening all at once too. I guess it will be quiet around the house. I'm not picking up any extra activities either for a while. Working FT is enough for now and my little volunteer activity will be just right for now. I also stop in by my parents a lot since they are elderly and so is my MIL. They keep me busy also.
Dinner will be a turkey roast with potato wedges tonight with cole slaw. I've intentionally decided not to do big shopping since kids are winding down their time at home. We'll eat from the freezer once again and try to move some of the stuff I had in there for their summer home. The college kids will be allowed to shop from my freezer all winter long as they try to cook meals for themselves. Grandpa grew lots of green beans and carrots that we froze so the kids may take what they want from the freezer. I make jam and bake bread so they may take that also.
That's it for today.
