Update Number 1

I think this may take me a few sittings to get up to date with what we have been doing for the last month. Well as my last post stated my wonderful Mom has been and gone. We had such a great visit with her that I seriously thought about keeping her here against her will. If I didn't think that Dad, David and Ally would have been upset she would still be here. She really earned her keep, as I had to work five days while she was here, she reorganized my kitchen, my Tupperware cupboard ( that was a really job alone) and my linen closet. Not only did she do all that but she also came to work with me and did a days worth of work for me, cutting and re cutting pages to go into a communication book for us to demo to classes. Mom that book has been out twice already, Eleanor and I still talk about how great it was that you did that. We had a nice long weekend at the end of her visit and I took an extra personal day to spend with her. I think we really tried out the saying shop till you drop as we hit the church bookstore, the distribution center, Crave (my favorite cupcake place) and IKEA twice! On Mom's last day here we thought it would be fun to take her to the zoo, we thought it would tire her out and make it easy for her to sleep on the plane. Boy were we wrong, sure she was tired but all that walking made her legs jumpy for the flight. Sorry Mom! Well all in all it was so great to have her visit, I wish we could see each other every weekend... wouldn't that be fun!

Mom Hard at work at the office, she got to go to a business lunch that day too!
