The family just left. Yesterday I took the day off to spend with them. We went shopping for my neice's birthday - what a disaster that was. How can she be a member of MY family and hate shopping as much as she does?? Who'da thunk! Got home and my cousin, her daughter-in-law and grandson came over. We did some of my favorite things. Arranging funiture and nesting. We all love to do that, plus I'm told it's entertaining as hell to watch me putter around.
Last night we sat and watched movies and talked. This morning, rushing, finish packing, primping of hair to show off new cut and running for a plane. They should make it just in time, but it'll be close!
Right now, there is not a sound in this house but the hum of the air conditioner and the clicking of this keyboard. Weird. It just feels empty. However, I only have 3 boxes left to deal with, we completely switched the furniture from the living room to the family room and it was the perfect fix. 90% of my candles are out and placed so the house is smelling wonderful. My favorite art work is hung in just the right spots. It feels like home.
But it's so quiet.
It's so empty.
I think I'll call some friends over for dinner.

Major guilt trip. guess I'll be goinf over shortly so they can run over me with their bikes or knock me down on the trampoline. Either way, guaranteed to come back with bruises.
