Seeking God Knows What

I spent this last week on the family vacation.  It wasn’t too bad this year.  My mom was not as stressful as she often is during this event.  We sisters got along fairly well and so did the kiddos.  Widget did surprisingly well- in fact, she was almost the best behaved of all the kids.  She did miss T as he was not able to get out of work except for the 4th itself but he did make the drive up after work Tuesday and then to an appointment about an hour south of where we stayed Thursday morning.

The weather was typical northern Michigan.  Cloudy, cool, rainy, followed by clear skies and warm temperatures.  We wore everything from jeans and sweatshirts to shorts and tank tops or bathing suits.  Makes packing rather difficult!

My camera battery was dead and didn’t get recharged so now I have to wait until my sister sends out the pictures she took to post a couple.

And now I have loads of laundry and an apartment to clean since it hasn’t been done in a while since there were 7 of us living here for 10 days. But there has been a bit of a reprieve for us as M and her three are staying at my parents’ for the rest of the time they are here.  I love them dearly, but we’ve had a lot of togetherness
