On to the Next Thing!

Today is the first day of back to normal. Well... as normal as normal get you know? The food show is over!

Once upon a time, Husband got a promotion that didn't include more money but did come with a lot more responsibility, namely, being in charge of the food show. As it approached Husband got more and more busy and a little bit more cranky. And finally it was Sunday and he left the house suitcase in tow and he returned last night!

Apparently it all went well. Want to see it? Turn your head sideways and get a peek!


Of course as with anything there are always little things that come up or things that could be improved for the future, but all the major details and such were pretty great. Apparently. He was excited to stop dreaming about the food show but alas, woke up this morning after more food show dreams. I am sure those will stop soon though right? 

I had 54 hours of soloing, which is nothing in the real world of business travel and deployments but man, I am a better mom when I am not the only one calling the shots at the end of the day. 


This was the only picture I took of my kids over the course of the few days. And they weren't even supposed to be playing with the window clings. But they have been and I pretty much just let it go because they were $3 and at least they're being entertained while they destroy them. 

Also in a funny story, we went out to dinner on Saturday and M was looking through the desert/drinks menu. 


She really wanted the ice cream brownie and when I told her no she asked for this Root Beer Old Fashioned. She told me "I want this drink. But with a lid. And no cherries." I am proud she asked for a lid so she wouldn't spill! It was really funny to me, and perhaps that won't translate to being funny to you but there it is. 

Anyway, now that it is Wednesday and the food show is all over it's just a steam roll to Christmas... M's birthday, Halloween, Elton John, Thanksgiving, Christmas. So, hang on to your hats (yes, like Herbert Nenninger and No-Noggin') because the rest of 2017 is coming up quick!
