Jungle Fever...

Thank you Mimi and Papa, for giving us our jungle. This isn't even ALL of them. But I do love them. I just hope I won't kill them...

I had my last day of work today, and I was sooo busy, in a good fast kinda way. Received our first Wedding Present from my boss and his wife, a beautiful Crystal vase. People are so generous, it is amazing.

Poor Nana is on her way up. She has been super ill the last 3 days with food poisoning. She is halfway here, having made her first flight today and is overnighting for her flight tomorrow. I wish she had put off her travel for a day, but she wanted to come now as everything is all booked. It's too bad that my house will make her even more ill when she sees my measly attempt at cleanliness. I didn't fully realize to what extent not "deep" cleaning for a few months will do to a place, yikers.

Daddy has been a "stay at home Mommy" for the last days, and has fared pretty darned well. I did interrupt a few "catnaps" with my "rude" whatcha doin' phone calls, but the kids are still alive, and were clean and happy when they picked me up after work.

Sydney and I will be visiting the doctor tomorrow for a quick ear check up. She is so hard to diagnose with infection, that I hesitate to leave her tugging a wee bit with Nana for a week. Then I have a waxing appointment on Thursday, and a hair trim and final tanning appointment on Friday. Otherwise I will be cleaning, laundering, packing and making lists for the next 3 days. have I mentioned that we are leaving on Saturday, for A WHOLE WEEK ALONE?? Yeah, we are.
