The pictures above. One: the moon. Two: Greg doing dishes!! In the dark because we still have no kitchen light. Three: Depressed dog. Four: Not depressed dog.
We took a long weekend and drove to Nebraska last week. The first leg took 18 hours because we stopped at Cabela's and later fell asleep at a gas station for 3 hours. Also there was another hour spent at a dog park in Wichita, KS because pups was tired of the car. You know that scene in Tommy Boy where the deer is trying to escape the Plymouth? Just kidding, he's not that bad! Mostly because he doesn't have antlers. Other than all that we made good time...
The way back took less than 14 hours and was rather uneventful. Except when Greg thought he saw a kangaroo. And when we waited too long to get dinner and one of us got hangry.
Shifty eyes.
But the trip was a blast. The longer I'm in a city the more I love visiting Nebraska. I would have never said it at the time but I was so spoiled growing up there. Ahhhh, the years just keep on sugar-coating those high school memories.
Smiley face.
Now I have 300 photos to sort thru from just 3 days of family stuff. This may seem extreme but there were sibling football and volleyball games that found Greg in possession of the camera with instructions to "capture something good". He just kept clicking but I think there are some winners buried in there.
Well, Monday I hit the ground running. Five loads of laundry were did and groceries were shopped and I even took the recyclables out. Enter Tuesday and that last load of laundry was still waiting in the dryer and the black bean soup I was planning on making became cereal and then I was super sore from a weight workout and hated having to move. Today hasn't been much better. The post-trip high wears off quick.
Have I mentioned it's cooling off here? The 70s, can you believe it?? October and I'm already thinking of hibernating.
That's all the drivel for now. Roscoe needs some outside time.
Have a great day :-)
