Gone... til ext time

[susandennis]

I took bill_schubert to the airport this morning. This visit seemed like the perfect length of time for getting in all the todo's, all the eating and all the visiting we needed. We are now both recharged and ready to survive on texts and emails again until the next time.

I am so lucky to have him in my life.

Now I am doing chores. Somehow Robby lost his map of the house. I remapped him and now he's doing the first vacuum this house has had for a week. His little dust bin is going to be full.

Biggie is outside bird hunting when he's not inside looking for Bill.

I sent a bunch of emails - to the car guy for an appointment to for annual maintenance, to the cat behaviorist to move our next call appointment, to my Mariners guy to fix a ticket issue... takin care of bizness...

I need lettuce and bread. So I may go out in a bit. But those are my own plans. No baseball today. Maybe some laundry. But, I think I'll probably spend the bulk of the day just enjoying all the changes we made around here and appreciating the new simplicities we created.

It's lovely to see two siblings getting along so well. So many siblings seem to struggle with that.

Well... in fairness, I should reveal... we have a sister. The middle child. I haven't been in contact with her for a couple of decades. My choice. My life is way better because of it. She and my brother have exceedingly minimal contact.

BUT he and I are both very grateful for each other. For sure.

I am visiting the one sibling that I am close with and having a blast. We have two others that we feel the same way about that you feel about your sister.

I am fortunate that my brother and I have always gotten along very well. It helps that we have a lot of interests in common. (We have tentative plans to visit him and his wife, whom we haven't seen in about two years, in Philadelphia this fall. My sister-in-law has mobility issues that pretty much preclude their visiting us.)

I'm glad you had such a nice visit.

What made you know Robbie lost his map? My Robbie is acting strange, like going into rooms he shouldn't.

The map on the app was pretty much all gone. Sorry now that I didn't snap a screen shot. But it was like someone took a big eraser to most of the house. But, remapped and he did a great job.

Sounded like a lovely visit!
