Finally! A Long-Awaited Accounting

My husband came home (though not when planned) and we had a great time together. Geocaching with our youngest, facilitating the oldest's camping trip, going out to eat, lots of long talks, and just "hanging out" together made the time fly. As always, his time home felt too short, but he'll be home again fairly soon.

Let's see how I did on that last massive "to do" list!
