I am alive....

barely alive, but alive just the same.  BUSY weekend....pretty much worked nonstop the last several days.  Today I attempt to, I don't know....recalibrate myself or something....get back to some kind of normality.

Tomorrow morning I take off for South Carolina....

Ernie and Ann got Judi's room painted---well, one coat at least.  It looks great----Owen calls it the Cocoa Puff room.  When Ernie went back to get a second gallon of paint however, Sherwin-Williams was out of the necessary base for Mexican Sand.....  Geesh....   So Ernie will finish that on Tuesday when they get that in, Wednesday her mattress will be delivered and on Thursday, Judi and I will head back to Illinois---hopefully arriving on Halloween.

Wish me luck on the drive, etc. I can't wait to be back and get Judi settled....
