Hello! Our vacation is coming to an end, sadly...we have thoroughly enjoyed our ten days in Fredericksburg, and are feeling sad about returning to reality tomorrow. Such is life.
Our ten days here were filled with fun and some productivity, too. We spent time with friends, took advantage of our daily free wine at the two wineries where we have memberships, ate a lot of good food, and relaxed as much as possible. In terms of productivity, I was able to get one coat painted on my porch swing (still needs a second coat); and I got some stuff planted in our front pot (jury is still out on whether those choices are going to work). Chris was able to get a wall built and installed on the other side of the house, which will separate the laundry room from the rent room. I also took two loads of cardboard to the recycling center.
Saturday, we went through orientation at the animal shelter in town so that we can begin volunteering there. It is a very nice place, and we'll be working with the dogs. They have about 25 at the moment, and we can walk them, play with them, love on them, etc. Now that orientation is over, we can show up whenever we want to volunteer. Looking forward to that.
Also Saturday, four of our crazy coworkers came to Fred for the day and we enjoyed some time with them! It was fun to hang out with them at the wineries.
Now, we are getting things packed up and will be heading to Abilene shortly...then it is the weird adjustment period of catching up after vacation. A lot happens in a week's time, so that is always daunting. I have book club Monday evening, and we have the big Shareholder's Meeting at work on Tuesday...
Hope you all have a super week ahead!
