Week 20

This turned into a very short week. The boys had off for MLK Jr. day.  We had a rousing game of What do you Meme? Family style at dinner.

The following day they went into to school but I had to pick them up for appointments in the middle of the school day. I did manage to get them back in time for John’s cello class and Thomas’s Chess club.

Wednesday was a big day.  Our final shipment from Fiji arrived.  All of the important things that we placed in our air shipment are back.  All of the kitchen accoutrements, our projector, my piano, and most importantly, the LEGOs are home.

Even at this moment, despite having gotten all of the moving boxes broken down and out of the house, we still have to shuffle and find the right homes for everything.  That said, we are almost feeling settled. We might need to get one or two more furniture things but at least we know where all of our stuff is.

Thursday was supposed to bring another snow storm.  Since the school district already used up all of the snow days, the boys had a virtual school day.  The storm left us with nothing more than a bit of rain.

I took John and Thomas to PA to spend the weekend with Grandma Carol and Grandpa Ron.  This gave Andrew and I some time to get at these piles.  We still have some piles in the kitchen and the “playroom” area. Oh well.

Despite all of that, it is really nice to finally cook with our nice pots and pans after the past 6+ months.
