VACATION and the return

Sorry for the silence, but we took a week's vacation in FL to visit my bro, SIL and niece and nephew. Its our annual trip to warmth without spending a fortune. They have a guest house across the pool, so its easy to stay with them and still have some privacy for each family. It was also our 6-year anniversary, which is another reason we go away this time of year. We were married on the beach, so we try to spend every anniversary on a beach as well. It wasn't the Carribbean, but it worked for us, since we're quite broke.

A great time was had by all, especially the cousins. My nephew was adopted from Korea, and is only 10 months older than J*, so they play together quite well. My niece is 6 1/2, and is the ring-leader. She was a big help with watching the boys when we needed her, except when she was baiting them or blaming them for something.

I actually got to take a walk each morning (just a mile or two), which felt GREAT! I have my follow-up u/s on Friday, and technically should have waited till after that to be "active", but I couldn't resist the beautiful mornings and the time alone. I am sure all is fine with Doo Doo. He is growing and moving like crazy!

Edited to add . . . Well, back to real life. Never fun when you get back from vacation to find things going wrong. Can you believe the cable TV went out on Monday (meaning TIVO couldn't record it) so we couldn't watch the 24 season finale?? WTF!! Thank goodness for internet episodes, but come on! Then, this morning, my coffee maker decides to be broken. Damn expensive Cuisinart piece of shit! I had to go OUT for coffee. Not my idea of a leisurely morning . . . good thing I planned an extra day off. I need it.

I'll update after Friday's scan.
