Rundown of the past few months
Don't know if I mentioned it before, but for the last month or so, the in-laws have been frantically packing/selling/giving away everything they've accumulated in 15 years in a giant house. When the FiL retired early, they made plans to sell the house and hit the road in an Airstream trailer. So the past two weeks have been a hellish madhouse for them and only sort of hellish for us because we've had to help them move, and now they're gone. First trip out. They've been gone literally... 36 hours or so, and we get an email from SiL, who is bumming in the trailer with them for the first month:
"Just ran out of gas on a highway in Kansas, 18 miles from where we were going to stay."
This is going to be hilarious.
On a completely unrelated note, I made stuffed shells for dinner tonight. They are currently sitting on the floor of the oven in the middle of a pool of pasta sauce and shattered Pyrex pieces.
And there is a new laptop, as the old one (Lilith) decided to short out the lamp backlighting a third of the screen. The new one is shiny and runs Windows 7, but is currently nameless. Current votes are: Lara - 3, Lucita - 3, Lucia - 2 writeins. (obviously there is a naming scheme at work here)
