I Survived, Again

Over and over again in my life I'm sure there will be moments where I utter the sentiments, "I survived!" Today, I am happy to report that I survived our dinner gathering for thirty of Frank's colleagues. I had fun! Frank had fun! And I hope everyone else had fun! We ate well, drank plenty, and stayed up way too late. A big thank you to Steve for keeping the kiddos.

In my opinion, it is no small feat to have dinner prepared and my home relatively picked-up for my own family much less a group of people I barely know. This is particularly true since I still have a few boxes to unpack, piles to organize, and projects to complete. And I'm not talking about the one day I'd like to type of projects. I'm talking about the things that should be done in the immediate future. For example, our silverware is still sitting in plastic storage containers on a bookshelf. I'm just thankful to have the bookshelf...

As I always say, when you come to my house you will typically get a decent meal but don't look too closely because there might be dust on the baseboards or in last night's case toothpaste on the counters.

A bit embarrassing but I'm just keeping things real...
