Home Sweet Home

We are back from our trip to the great state of Ohio and I brought home two new kids. May I introduce to you 'Whinin' and 'Complainin'. These two won't be staying long but they were definitely here today. Whinin' first appeared this morning when he couldn't find the shoes he left in the middle of his bedroom floor. Oh, the drama! Complainin' seemed to be in and out all day, but she was firmly seated at the table for meals.

May they quickly find their way to someone else's home. Someone with more tolerance for such non-sense. Brenna and Daniel are welcome to return - any time now.

In the meantime, we have spent the day cleaning out the fridge, getting groceries, doing laundry, washing dishes, and unloading the car. Oh, and putting all the stuff away that I spent so much time gathering before we left. Actually, we didn't finish that chore today. There's plenty more for tomorrow. After I get more sleep, of course. We didn't pull into our driveway until 1:15 AM last night....long story....so a nap today was necessary.

On the 'To Do' list for tomorrow is an item that reads 'Upload pictures'. After that I'll be able to fill you in on our spectacular visit to Pittsburgh and eastern OH. Among the treasures will be the Pittsburgh Zoo, a boat ride, stories about the relatives, and a bit from the Ohio Amish.

Until then...I'll be sleeping. : )

Hope the terrible Whinin and Complainin disappear after some sleep tonight. They don't have nearly as many people to dote on them as Ohio does, lol.

PS. I look forward to reading your blog and once again living vicariously through you and your adventure to "the homeland."
