It was a grand vacation.....

Well, A&T are officially Mr and Mrs now! It was a beautiful ceremony. The bride was stunning. The groom the picture of cool, calm, collected. The music was wonderful (cello). It was perfect. The reception under the tent was delightful. The food was great. All had a grand time. It was a long day, but a goodie. I can't wait to see all the pictures from the photographer.

The next couple days got us all back to normal. All the cleanup and breakdown. They came to get the tent the next day and all the tables, chairs, and buffet stuff had to be broke down and cleaned after the festivities ended on the night before. We had watched them put the tent up a couple days before the wedding and it was quite the process. It came down much easier than we thought it would considering the big jackhammer type thing they used to sink the stakes (that acutally were giant nails). They just whacked the stakes a few times with a sledge and up they came. We just happened to look out the window just as the youngest of the crew missed the stake with the sledge and took a glancing blow on his ankle. OUCH. He was fine...just a little gimpy.

The day after the day after didn't start out so good. Mo was running a very high fever and it got worse. We eventually found out on Tuesday (Monday being the holiday and the doctor wasn't in...we did talk to her tho) that she had a real bad kidney infection and as soon as she got a couple doses of the antibiotic down...she felt much, much better. But she essentially spent 2 1/2 days in bed shaking, sweating, and feeling like she had been hit by a truck. She is up and around now and feels pretty good, but is still fighting the infection and is wiped out most of the time. I hope it all goes totally away very soon.

I got home yesterday after 10 days away. Nice to be home, but I really didn't want to leave. I have to go back to the grind Monday morning. No more sleeping in till 6 or 7am. Must be up at 3:45am. yuk I did mountains of laundry today. Still have some things to put away.

I got the leak under my kitchen sink fixed today too. I called the contractor this morning and Jeff came and spent a couple hours under the sink. But I think we got it fixed for good this time. I had a leak in one of the pvc connections and because it was so damp under there, I also had ants. I got rid of the ants before I left on vacation and now the leak is fixed, so I should not see the ants return. Cross your fingers.

I need to go put the car back in the garage. I had to have the XM radio reset because I changed packages and am now not going to receive all the channels....only the music ones. So they had to reset my receiver in the car. The guy I talked to was incredibly hard to understand and didn't understand what I needed to do either. We finally got it all straight .... I hope. I will see here in a minute. I had to put the car outside to receive the signal. It doesn't work in the garage.

Well, I better get to it. And I need to get myself in the bed. I don't wanna. Later......
