BA,

It was drizzling when we landed, but I made it home okay and it's just overcast right now. The sun is trying to come out for good. Maybe tomorrow?

Yep, I was in the bar just to watch Manning bowl. I left when we had started to pull away and then my BIL texted me until I had to shut my phone off. It was good. I was able to watch highlights on my iPad on the flight. Southwest has free Dish on wifi flights. It made my flight home buzz by quickly, since D16 slept.

Sorry your D16 came home sick. Sometimes I think when we go, go, go on trips that happens. I'd say it's pretty common in my house, at least. Hope she's feeling better pronto.

BTW, I'm definitely surprised your game wasn't a blow out.

Ya know, I've definitely felt this way when getting a message. But I sure wouldn't say that to anyone. It sounds whiny. She probably should have said something more confident????

You're being more generous with her than I would be. I don't have time to draw out people's strengths. I just want for them to present themselves the way they want to be perceived.

Barb, I completely understand your motivations on why you chose not to post a photo right out of the gate - it worked for you. But in DC, you don't get many chances to make an impression.

If you need a cheerleader on resting, BA, I'll lead it. It's liberating. Basically, I've found out that what Wii said is how I feel. I'm beginning to see that my friends are rock stars and all I need right now. Anything else is work, and I just don't want to spend my time up to the holidays "working" at stuff already not on my plate.

I've always been a Peyton Manning fan and of any team that beats the Giants


My aforementioned BIL lives in Indy, and still a huge Peyton fan as well as the Colts. He's always liked the Donkeys. His quip to me years ago: "I root for the following teams in this order: Colts, Broncos and whoever is playing the Patriots." LOL. Mine is pretty much the same (in reverse and whoever plays the Raiders).

Off to get some stuff done that didn't get done while I was gone. I'm already behind and not getting closer to accomplishing anything by being here. wink
