Robins!

Mike and I were getting the trailer hooked up to the truck last Sunday and found a little nest. I asked if there were any eggs in it... Mike pulled it down and this is what we found

We figured it wouldn't be good to just put them back on the trailer so I placed the next in a nearby tree and hoped for the momma to find them. When I looked Monday morning while doing chores, the momma was sitting on her nest. YAY!

evening out

i had an amazing day yesterday. it was so what i needed. i spent some awesome time with some social work student union peeps. i miss these wonderful ladies and i am so fortun ate to know them. well need to board my plane.

tourist

i was able to take in some sights yesterday while al was working. im always amazed how much history is around me. here is some of what i saw.

breakfast

al and i just got back from the original pancake house in bethesda, md. it was awesome as you can see.

Washington DC

we made it safe and sound to dc yesterday. ordered in hotel food since everything was closed when we got in. sat in conferences all day and went out for supper. its a really great hotel on the potomac river... gaylord national conference center and resort.

Exhaustion

I think it's finally set in for me. I'm sitting in my office as the beautiful sunshine comes in my window and I'm totally ready for a nap! We got more boxes put away and repacked last night... the result: I was able to get ready in the bathroom this morning with out tipping boxes over or tripping on a turtle or fish. It really was great. Made for a little less stress. Tonight, we tackle the closet in the bedroom... after we enjoy some tacos. This will be the first time I've ever had to share a closet. hmmm.... how much space does Mike REALLY need? ;)

E-Dog

How is it that this dog will eat anything? Including paint chips. He's so cute, but darn it, he is not the smartest. Sounds like the effects will not be long term. Carl seems to be missing him more than me :) It is weird not having either of them around. Maddie is fine she had very low levels... quite frankly it was probably from her just licking Emmitt. She likes to make sure he stays clean. I'm probably going to go to the Drs. office this weekend and get tested just to be safe. Doc Doug felt that would be smart as did the nurse at my doctor's office. Could be why I'm not getting rid of this cold... or it's the stress this move has given me. :)
