We had a small hiccup in the long term parking area when the note Jeff claimed to have made on the location of our car somehow disappeared, leaving us with no clue where it was. Well, maybe one small clue like "I think it is in this general area."
I sat with the bags while Jeff got in a good workout running up and down the rows looking for the car. Of course, it ended up being parked in the one row we had walked down together while I looked to the left and he looked to the right. I'll let you guess what side it was on. Don't worry - I didn't point that out at the time.
After we got back to the house, I jumped back in the car to take a shower at the gym. I know! The dang bathroom still isn't finished! Basically, the guy ran out of floor tiles with about a square foot left to go. I ordered more tiles on Friday and they should be here tomorrow, which means the bathroom SHOULD be done by the end of this week. Well really, it should have been done 2 weeks ago but let's not get into that. I won't bore you with more pictures until it is finished.
We picked up the dogs in the early afternoon. Sascha left her mark in the form of numerous large holes in the sitter's garden. In fact, she was working on her final hole very industriously when I arrived. She sneezed all the way home because she had inhaled so much dirt. Plato, as usual, was embarrassingly happy to see us, as if he hadn't gotten a single moment of affection the entire time we were gone (which I know is not true).
The new antlers from Jeff's mom were a big hit!
While the dogs chewed and then made that wonderful transition to logs, Jeff got his much-anticipated game on. He is playing "Shogun 2" at the moment so he spent the rest of the afternoon and evening (he really likes this game) spouting nonsense in a Japanese school girl voice - which is odd since the game is about clans, and battles, and conquering...
I made a reasonably successful attempt to stay awake until a normal bedtime and watched "Robin Hood" through half-closed eyes. I've definitely hit the second day jet lag slump though. In fact, I've been staring at that last sentence for about 5 minutes. Luckily, we "sprung ahead" this weekend to BST (British Summer Time) so it is still light out now at 6pm. I think spring has finally arrived. The temperature is holding steady close to 60 degrees so I had the doors open most of the afternoon. I'm trying to show the dogs that they can come and go as they please when the doors are open, but they don't understand yet. They spend most of the time peering outside or, if they've actually decided to go outside, peering back inside looking for me.
Jeff is about to come home from work so I better get some strong tea ready for both of us - we need it!
