We've Been Having Fun

There's been dancing in front of the mirror.

There's been popcorn while watching football.  

We've been baking

and doing minor car repairs on Daddooooo's Testarossa.

There's been time for swimming

and playing silly games

and drinking fancy drinks. 

There's been no time at all for writing to you.

The big kids and their parents leave tomorrow on a 6am flight.  Big Cuter is taking the week off and will be the primary caregiver for Honey Bunny.  I'll be lonesome and blue but will have time for you.  

There's lots to share.  I've been reading some wonderful books, watching some interesting tv, and playing some fabulous games.  I have deep thoughts about our Supreme Court and the freak show that is the Republican Party.  I have lighthearted imaginings.

I'm going to spend tonight with all my chickens under one roof, reveling in the wonderfulness of it all.  In the morning, when the traveling guests are gone and their bedding is laundering and deflating, The Burrow will begin easing back to its regular schedule.  Look for a mid-day post tomorrow and then daily posts live at midnight, Tucson time.

It will be hard to say goodbye.  It will be good to get back into my routine.  Such is life.
