Surviving just fine as we are on Day 3 of the parents' visit to AZ. Though I have to say since I play "host" so infrequently, I forget how much energy it takes to try and keep the contentment level high high high! Sure we have had a misstep or two ("dog slobbering on dad's pants" or this morning's "dog runs off with mom's eyeglass case") but nothing that has not been recoverable and forgettable in a short period of time. My parents are still on East Coast time, so let's just say it has been a couple of early mornings!
Looking forward to tomorrow when we hit the road (before 6am I am told by the units) to Las Vegas...a chance to relax a bit and not worry about keeping so many balls up in the air (it won't be in our house, so I can't be responsible for all that much that goes on!)... but more so to get away from work and out of the house (i.e my workplace) for a bit... and best yet Todd is going to be flying up to join us on Wednesday night... so hopefully it will be a good getaway for all of us!
So American Idol and Survivor and all the rest of TV will just go by without me... hopefully TiVo will preserve everything to catch up on after next weekend (though I am more concerned about the cable box, which likes to turn itself off every so often, more than good 'ole TiVo).
Guess that is all for now... I should clean up a few last work things... maybe get packing for the trip and keep everyone in good spirits in the mean time. Have a good week... probably back blogging on May 3rd (if I am not buried in work or in the insane asylum)!
