Well, its Friday. I’ve been sick most of the week and have barely left the house. Why is it when you’re sick the house gets to be a mess? I think we do more picking up than we realize during the week and when we are feeling lousy and aren’t doing that picking up it gets to be nasty. I stayed up late tonight and at least got my kitchen clean (a little!) and a couple of loads of laundry done. Maybe I’ll be caught up by the end of the weekend!
Time is running out before our trip to Germany for the wedding and Christmas so losing this week to sitting around feeling awful was not helpful! So now its down to the wire and I’ve got to get some shopping done and preparations ready for the wedding and the big trip. Soldier Son and his fiancée called this afternoon all excited because they had gone to the castle where the wedding will be and taste tested all the food my almost-daughter-in-law had chosen for the reception (or whatever they call it there). My dear son thought it was wonderful and told me excitedly about everything and how wonderful the castle is. He hadn’t seen it before because, well, he has been otherwise occupied the last year and a half. I could hear her in the background chastising him for telling me. ‘Let it be a surprise’, she said.
They had also gotten his suit and she told me in her Bavarian accent, ‘He looks so sexy!!!’. Okay, that’s not how a mother thinks of her son - but I’m glad she feels that way!
They also told me that the Christmas Markets are popping up everywhere and they are looking forward to us walking around in the evening and showing us all the markets and everything there is to see. I’m just so excited about the trip myself. I can’t wait! I’m mostly excited that they sound so happy together.
Well, I’m just chattering away. Here’s some more relevant links from my blogroll ….
