Yesterday things just seemed to fall into place. Our furniture was delivered and it\u2019s finally right this time. Our home had the ole termite inspection and it passed with flying colors. I took a nice little afternoon nap that I so desperately needed. I planted more shrubs in the front flower bed. Bobby and I went shopping last evening and then stopped by Brahms for some ice cream. We like things going at a slower pace and so glad everything\u2019s coming together on this end. That was the best decision we made all week to stay right here. And we were in bed by 9:30 last night. Oh what a wonderful day!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\"><span style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'Comic Sans MS'\">Today, instead of flying around shopping for our trip, I\u2019m having my neighbor over for lunch and a nice little afternoon visit. I\u2019ve already vacuumed the house and cut the front portion of the lawn, ran the weed eater and swept the sidewalks this morning. Bobby hired a lawn crew from here on out to take care of the lawn and they will be here Friday to take over.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Comic Sans MS'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA\">This weekend, Bobby is having some work done on stone walls that surround our home. Some of the stones have cracked and we\u2019re looking to have someone out here to get the walls fixed up nice and pretty. Our lists are getting shorter and shorter and our stress has melted away.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since we made our decision not to go to Alaska this week, we are both so very much more relaxed.
