We made it safely into the new year. Well, except for a touch of the flu/stomach bug I got on New Year's Eve. I'm a party-pooper. I know it. I think my brother held it against me the rest of the night, when really he should have just spent the night with our sister and brother-in-law, he would have had more fun than hanging out with Mom and Dad (and me and Karl). Oh well, too late now.
It was definitely a whirl-wind trip. We spent 5 days visiting people, and 3 days flying. Every single flight we were on was at least an hour delayed. Every one! And the weather was great. Sunny, calm, still cold, but beggars can't be choosers. With the addition of a 4th suitcase we were able to bring all our presents home in one trip. Don't take that to mean we had a ton of stuff, because my 2 suitcases are tiny, since the big ones have been destroyed by baggage handlers over the years. And we needed 1 hard sided case to transport a bottle of wine. Which I'm happy to say survived the trip. Enjoy A & E!
But we did get a climbing rope. As soon as the weather warms up, we'll be hitting the rock.
It was nice to see everyone, of course. I wish we could have stayed longer, or preferably, they could come visit us for a change. I like sleeping in my king-sized bed.
I have not made any resolutions yet. I haven't in years. Of course I want to exercise more, and eat healthier, but I always want to do that. Now that I have a job (for awhile) I can afford a gym membership. I wanted to take a ballet class, but I forgot to sign up before we left. The community center does have a pool though. If only I still fit my swimsuit. I guess I'll have to go to the fitness center first. Then again, I do have a pound cake baking in the oven... I'm a sucker for sweet.
