Finally here after our trip

Since it's after midnight, and now Friday, I guess that makes it officially over a week since I was in to say "HI". Well, I guess I did forget that I dropped in for a quick hello to you all from Indiana, but here we have been back for 3 days, and I'm just now getting the chance to touch base with you.

We had a wonderful trip. We arrived in Indy at about 5 am on Saturday morning, and naturally, regardless of time, spent some time visiting with Lee's mom Laura and cousin Chris. We finally went to bed around 6. The sun was coming up already. The drive down was beautiful. Our air conditioning isn't working, but since we were driving at night, we drove with windows down, and enjoyed the nice spring breeze, and the smell that the farmlands left in the air. It smelled so wonderfully clean. But we were soon faced with the hustle and bustle of the big city when we rolled into Indy.

We helped laura do some moving. She has to be out of the place she's in now by the end of June. We got quite a bit done. We've talked about trying to go back another weekend, but I'm not sure how we'll do that. I can't take another day off. Aaron is going to be gone tomorrow, and i was gone on Monday, so this made for a short week as far as pay goes. I can't ask for two monday's off in a row. Then, the following weekend is Father's Day, and I'd really like to spend it with my Dad, and have Landon be able to spend it with Lee...and the Grandkids with their Papa...not stuck in Indiana. Then, there's only one weekend left in June, so I'm just not sure if it's going to be possible to get back up there. There really wasn't much left to do...couch, bed, a couple of dressers, and kitchen table...the rest will just be boxes...and clothes. We were able to get some of the heaviest stuff out this past weekend.

So...since it was late when we arrived home on Monday...or Tues., technically...we got home a little after midnight, we decided not to go pick up Moriah from Landon's. Besides...we wouldn't have had any room for her. With Laura moving, she was getting rid of alot of things. I ended up with a bunch of stuff! She just recently got a new laptop, so she gave her old pc to Moriah....including printer, mic, camera...plus a really nice desk. Since we weren't able to take a trailer, we had to take the desk apart, to haul them back in the car, as well as two shelves that we took for landon. There were 2 shelves, with 6 shelves per unit. Then I got a new coffee pot...and some new silverware. They're got really nice. Got some new towels, and curtains...and more linens to come later. I got a few mugs, some very cool martini glasses...which I don't drink...but they're cool...along with some small nick nac...candles...just a bit of everything. Needless to say, the car was packed! In fact...I got stuck driving all the way home, because the back seat was so full that Lee couldn't scoot the seat back, and he finds it rather difficult to drive with his knees cramed against the dash board, and his chest about 3 inches from the sterring wheel....lol He tried..but he did look rather funny, just trying to get in the car, much less be able to set in the seat. hahahahaha

I picked Moriah up Tuesday afternoon, after I got off work, and then we just came home...I was SOOOOOOOOOO pooped! We did get out long enough to meet Lee at Pizza Hut...it's on him way home, and not far from our house. I sure didn't feel like cooking, not to mention that I didn't have any food in the house after being gone for 4 days...still don't have much. lol

Landon and the kids came over Wednesday night...amanda had to work, we did supper, and help Moriah some with setting up her computer, and trying to figure out what we're going to need ot connect her to the internet. Unfortunately, the Buick, which was working so great, has now quite...again...for the 3rd time!!!!! MAN...I sure wish I knew what was causing those harmonic ballencers to go out. Someone's got to be able to tell us something. Something HAS to be causing it. Anyway, so without the buick working, I had to take Landon back home, and what did we do.....???? It was so late, and we were all so tired, that we got all the way back to landon's and realized that we hadn't gotten the diaper bag. At one time I even asked landon if he h ad remembered to get the formula...which he said he had. So...there's no formula. But...they had milk, which would sure do...and plenty of diapers, so when i got off work today I took the diaper bag back out to Landon's Mary was chowin' down on some of that good old 2% when I got there. lol

So, finally tonight, after supper, I got a bit of a second wind, and started some laundry. I've gotten quite a bit done, plus the laundry room picked up. That is just that much less that I have to do tomorrow. I don't have to work, but I have to do some work here! Just this evening I finally got the rest of our clothes out of our bags, and stuff unpacked. I still have a duffle bag of shoes sitting in my livingroom that hasn't been unpacked yet. So, I've already told Moriah not to make any plans...she's gonna help me clean, and we're going to get this done before we meet Lee a little after 7, and head for Ashland. We're going to do supper, and drop off Moriah...she works over the weekend.

Well, it's all I can do to keep my eyes open. Goodness...it's almost 2. Can't believe I've been talking that long! lol Of course. I didn't spend al that time typing...was checking on laundry and running back and forth.

So, I'm going to close. I hope you had a wonderful day, and I hope that you enjoy the up and coming weekend. Take care, and I'll talk to you soon!

Much love,
Lev
