Omigosh!

Someone once said, "We haven't been here that long and didn't bring too much stuff, packing up shouldn't be a problem."  W-R-O-N-G!!!!!   Its kicked our butts this week.  Add to that the excitement of some electrical problems and we are worn out.

The electricity started a couple of days ago when we got home to a dark house.  So we found a thrown breaker and threw it back only to have it thrown itself again.  After MUCH throwing back and forth, we gave up and went to bed.

The following day we got up and threw the breaker...NOTHING.  Come to find out, the whole neighborhood was without power from 7am-2pm.  So we battled the breaker again all evening.  Today we had a guy come and install a new breaker for $3.50 and now we are sailing.  Its been more funner packing in the dark, though, I can promise you.

Oh, one more thing... we think Angie has shingles.... fun times!!!!

Now we are down to our last 26 hours here and still have a bit more to pack.  Probably one more bag to buy and the five of us (with our 17 suitcases and 5 carry-on bags) will be in the air again.  Ready to hit the ground at midnight and get at it.  At least we are getting used to the dark.

I'm thankful your humor has not left you, even in such stressful circumstances! Will remember Angie - she does not need that!
