55. As if this day couldn't get any better

Dec 2016

My daughter is coming home today for the holidays. I was worried because her flight landed at the same time that I needed to pick up my youngest son. He is volunteering today to lay wreaths on soldier's graves. My 23 year old offered to pick her up. She is planning to go a Christmas banquet tonight with her brother. Which means I won't have to stay up until midnight to pick him up.

Now the 1st thread I see is this one. A big hearty congratulations! I don't have a BoA account, but when you ask if "there is anything else I can help you with" and the person replies can you come wash my kitchen floor or do a load of wash for me -I started that.

Now relax, enjoy your holidays knowing you get to start the new year happier and with less worries.
