getaclue I understand your setup perfectly and like it so much that my house is set up the very similarly. We eat in the living room at our computers or watching show or both.
I had a twin bed in my living room for a while also.
I love a home that is lived in and comfortable.

I am not great at taking pics but today just as it stopped raining I went to check on my garden and found my first tomatoes! I snapped a pic with my cell phone and I looked at the pic when I came in and was amazed to find the rain drops so clearly.

Ron, I will do that if needed. At this point, the little mattress is very comfortable, and serves the purpose well.

Whew!

Eldest, ALL BY HIMSELF, got himself in a taxi..to the airport, to Anchorage , and when we picked him up he realized he had left the priest's house unlocked.

But child had the number of the neighbor, and was texting the neighbor about locking the house up when I picked him up.

This morning, he came downstairs for the hotel breakfast... barefoot. Yep.

It being Alaska, no one sent him back to his room. He got to eat barefoot.

His younger brothers were SO EXCITED to get to ride an elevator up a single level that they must have ridden it a Jillian times. They kept saying "did you feel that? The bump? " etc.etc.

I had forgotten how long it has been since we have left the tiny town we live in.

I had forgotten that all 5 of my boys scream "tiny town rough and tumble wilderness boy". Sheesh...spouse and I had to keep reminding them of city stuff....

No running off

No wrestling inside

No shouting inside

Bathe



Anyway...eldest got back on the plane to return to his job in Juneau. He will get there at 10 something pm.

I forgot to ask him if he has house keys....or will be sleeping in bushes tonight until the neighbors wake up.


Hummmmm

Oh...and he DID graduate. AND they had it as a live stream, so my parents in Texas got to watch.

Al, your account of things is so uplifting. Thanks!

I think that blasted boy made me tear up in public.
