I am sorry I have been neglecting this blog! I'll try to do better now that the holidays are over, but I have so many things on my plate right now that I'll have to schedule it in my planner to make sure it happens!
Matt spent his 10 day leave with us for New Year. I wish we had been able to plan lots of exciting things for him to do. There isn't a lot around here to do, though; especially when you're on a budget. I hope he wasn't too bored (though I know he was). We also no longer have a room dedicated to him. It reminds me of those shows you see on TV where the parents convert the child's room into something else the minute the kid moves out. But, really, we are in the limbo of waiting for our next remodel phase, and planning a guest room for when the next kid moves out.
Anyway, while he was hear, we all got sick of hearing "DROID!" every few seconds. His new phone has this automaton voice that says that every time he receives a text or e-mail, which is pretty much ALL THE TIME!
Another highlight of Matt's visit would have to be the number of IN N OUT burger joint visits Matt made while he was here. In the short time he was here, he became a regular of theirs!
On the 9th, we hosted an open house so that friends and family could stop by and see Matt while he was here. I scheduled it from noon to 8 pm, but I really should have just had it in the evening, since that is when most everyone came. The photo above is from the open house. It was good to see everyone. Now we simply have too much soda left over. I wish Matt could have taken it with him on the plane so I could have it out of the house. I suppose I could just pour it down the drain...
Now that he has gone back to San Diego, I miss having another driver around to help with errands.
