Down Time

One more work day for me and two more for my hardworking husband then it is a week of vacation time. It has been a year since we had some time away by ourselves.

Last fall we went on a great cruise together. This year we are headed back to the beach. After a year of transitions we are ready for some R and R. Sadly, our friends who had planned to join us aren't able to get away with us. Maybe next time....

Weird Schedules

One of us works Sunday to Thursday, one works Monday to Friday, and another works Tuesday to Saturday. Hours vary too, from 4:00 am to 2:30 pm, 8:00 am to 5:0 pm, and another 6:00 pm to 3:00 am.

Add to that some overtime for some and a daughter and son-in-law with also non-traditional schedules. Daughter not only works 30+ hours or so a week, but is also a full-time student.

Guess it might be Thanksgiving before we are all together again for some quality time.

Cooking again

Those that know me, know I love to cook. It is a great stress reliever for me. The past few months it seems we have eating out more Than usual and I am on a mission to change that. Don't get me wrong, I love a good meal out as much as most people, but I enjoy cooking.

This week I have cooked much more than normal. We had company Monday and Tuesday nights. It was great have family over and spend time together. I hope all this cooking and enjoying meals together is a new trend for us.

Now back to the kitchen I go! I am thinking of something chocolate.
