Tomorrow I fly home to Chicago. Right now I'm sitting in my sister's family room with my 10-year-old nephew half watching Lion King 2 and half paying attention to this little thing I'm writing.
I look forward to going home tomorrow and seeing my daughter who hung up the phone on me tonight because I refused to let her sleep over at a friend's home whose mother permits boys to sleep over too. She also told me that I was too focused on her grades. Oh well, blessed parenthood as my mother used to say.
We had a wonderful time on our Atlantic Ocean get away. It was restful and uneventful except for a few comical interludes with some of the strangest male characters my sister and I have ever met.
We are tanned and looking forward to reuniting in a little over two weeks to head to Tybee Island with our children in tow. This time we've rented a little cottage with a screened in porch and an outdoor shower just a couple blocks from the beach. It should be a fun trip.
