We're Finally Home

We finally made it home yesterday and found much work to be done. So, today we went to work and we're now worn out and refuse to do any more. We had a wonderful time traveling across country and a great week relaxing in Snowbird (mountain resort above Salt Lake City). However, it is great to be home. The problem is that there is so much to do it's hard to decide what to do first. So we just don't think about it. We see something that needs to get done and we do it. Who cares about priority.

Mom weathered the cross country trek and really enjoyed watching us swim at Snowbird. Her health is almost back to normal but we keep having her use the walker just because. Of course, when she first gets up from sitting for any length of time, her leg is a bit stiff but then she's ok after that (wait, are we talking about me???). It's kind of funny in a way, sometimes. She is a bit insecure (fear of being left behind even though we constantly tell her we won't leave her) and when she doesn't see either Marti or I for a minute and she know's we're getting ready to go somewhere, it's amazing how fast she can move. It's almost like she picks that walker up and starts running (not quite but she does move pretty fast).

Last Friday, Sept 4th, we celebrated Mom's 93rd birthday with a lot of Marti's family and my daughter Michelle and her new husband, Jason (surprise, they got married July 31st). We had a great party. Thanks for the cards and letters which were waiting for us when we arrived in Rexburg.

Well, I'm worn out and can't think of anything else to say. So, ta ta.

Love, Dennis
