Brooklynne is taking the kids out west for a while. They haven't ever met their great grandparents on Brooklynne's mom's side, so that will be good. And they haven't seen any of Brooklynne's family since the summer (except Katie, of course).

So... I'm baching it for the next couple weeks. Here's my to-do list for my first day alone:

1. Enjoy quiet house
2. Sleep

Short--but effective. Tomorrow the while-you-were-away project work begins.
