Today I am getting ready to welcome my husband home after a week of his being gone out of town for business. He has been in Austin, TX for a week while I was here in boring old Adairsville, GA. lol. Anyway, the kids and I have been prepping the house and now it is the waiting game. He should be here anytime between 4-6pm. The closer he gets the more "in stone" the time will be. This is the first time he has come in from out of town and it wasn't middle of the night or early morning, so I will be interested to see if it is different for the kids...usually he tries to drive on through and just gets here late and the kids just wake up and it is back to normal, no big welcome home ceremony.
I am really excited because we are going to have the chance to hang out just the two of us TWICE this week, and after he has been gone! Tomorrow night, some couples at church are getting together for a "no kids" night. Then, Saturday, we are going to the Homeschool Expo together, just us. I am very very exicted about that, at least two meals alone this week! woo hoo! That hardly ever happens right after a trip.
By the way, if anyone reads this and has been to a homeschool expo before, do you have any tips or ideas about what to look for, what questions to ask, etc? This will be our first, of course, and I am really excited...but I don't want to be overwhelmed. They are offering free workshops as well, so I am trying to decide how much time we will have for everything.
This is an extremely boring post. I think I will go check out the open house!
Also...please don't be offended if I don't comment a whole lot...we have DIALUP!!! BLAH!!!! It takes forever to load blogs! TTYL!
