Just droppin' in

Just a quick note to say "HI". I haven't been on much at all, just a short time yesterday morning, before having to go to work. Once work was over, I had to take the car in to have a tire checked. Then made the little over an hour drive to the lake to pick up Lee's mom, and bring her back to Columbia, to spend last night with us. We are leaving, probably within the next 1 1/2 hr. or so, and headed to Indy, to take her back home. Lee had a bunch of stuff still at work to do, so he did have to go in for awhile today, to try and finish up, or we could have left before now. He is due home in 30 mins. or so, and then it will just be a matter of getting the car loaded and we'll head out. We were talking about stopping in St. Louis for a bit, to sees Lee's nieces new baby, but I haven't heard any definate word on that, so I'm not sure if that is still in the plans or not. Lee doesn't work Mon, but I do, so we're going to have to turn around and leave tomorrow, so won't get to spend as much time there as we'd like.

We are going to meet up with Lee's sister Amanda, who is in Indy this week for her wedding shower. Lee made their wedding rings for them, and we're going to deliver them to her while we're there. Her and Don are getting married next month, but the wedding is in the DC/Arlington area, and as much as we'd like to know, I don't believe that finances are going to allow us to do that, even with the fact that we have a place to stay free of charge, which is definately a big savings, not having to worry about hotel cost, but there's still the matter of the cost to get there. We definately can't afford to fly 3 of us there, and right now gas in MO is $2.78 gal....and I hate to think what it will be in the DC area. Then, none of us have ever been to DC, so there would be lots of stuff I'd love to go visit while there, that I might not ever have the chance to see again....so, being able to spend at least a couple of days there, doing the tourist thing, would be another added expense. So...who knows.

Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know why I hadn't been around much, and won't be for awhile. We'll get home late Sunday night...gonna do my best to make it before midnight...lol...since I have to work the next day. But, depending on when we get home, I'll probably pop online for a few, to check and see what's been going on over the weekend.
Hopefully, I'll be back in "fullswing" sometime monday...probably evening.

Hope you are all having a fabulous weekend. It's beautiful here in MO, so I hope the rest of you are enjoying a beautiful weekend as well.

Much love,
Lev
