It's been a lovely day!!!

It is quite cold here in Richmond, but we haven't gotten any of the snow that has affected much of the country.  It was a week ago today that I made my final drive home after being in Pensacola with family for just over a week during Christmas.  Jackson and Maddie both turned a year older in Dec, and Seth will follow suit later this month.  I cannot get over how much they are growing and changing!  Admittedly, I would love to live closer to them so that I could see them more frequently!  Four days on the road round trip is becoming less enjoyable!  Getting to visit friends in the Atlanta area is a perk, but . . .

As usual, getting back into the groove in Richmond is a challenge.  But, the clothes are all clean, there is food in the house to eat, the Christmas decorations are down, and I am getting things done that I have been procrastinating over for weeks!  It is hard to believe that if all goes according to plan, I will be in Kolkata in three weeks.

It has been nice to spend time with friends since returning, and I am looking forward to the next couple of weeks here, just to see how things will all come together.  I have a stress test on Mon which I am pretty sure will say that I am fine, but I have had a few symptoms and wanted to leave for India with a clean bill of health.  Something funny is also going on with my heating system.  Someone is coming about that on Mon, too!  Hopefully it can be taken care of easily, quickly and inexpensively.

I think now that Christmas is over . . . the kids go back to school around here on Mon . . . I can put my head down, make a list of what needs to be done, and get it taken care of!
