Today was so great!
We wore our hot pink flip-flops.
Our attitudes matched!

Scheduled flight cancelled
One more night away from us
He’ll be home today
Hopefully…
Yes, Daddy’s connecting flight last night was cancelled in Chicago. No weather problems. Fully functional plane. “Crew issues.” What is that, exactly?
It doesn’t matter. It is what it is. He was able to get a flight out today, and is waiting to board right now. Claire and I will go pick him up this afternoon, after he retrieves his bag. His bag didn’t have to deal with crew issues, so it arrived on schedule last night.
How convenient.
“Daddy will be home today?”
“Yes, Daddy will be home today.”
*huge sigh of relief*
After two weeks, another day doesn’t mean much to a toddler. And, it shouldn’t mean much to me, but it does.
I’ve found that it’s all in my reaction, and she didn’t see me cry last night… So, it’s all good. He’ll be home soon and the last two weeks will fade into a blur.
I can’t wait.
A new year is here!
A fresh start, a clean blank slate…
Ready to jump in?
Happy New Year, 2008!
Trapped within the tiles
A warm piece of heaven glows
And makes my feet sigh.
It’s at a time like this when all the hard work is worth it.
As we installed the heating element under the new tile flooring for the Master Bathroom Remodel Project in the heat of summer, it was hard to focus on the future…the day when we’d actually slip our bare, cold feet onto the heated tiles.
When we first wake up:
Outside: A brutal 8-degrees (Fahrenheit)
Inside: A modest 62-degrees
The Tile Floor: A decadent 83-degrees
Pure bliss.
