It's Small World....

 

I'm back...

I'm tired though...no time to blog..  Will write more tomorrow... 

Vegas was hot and fun, but much too short of a visit.....  It was great to finally meet my husband's brother, Sam and his girlfriend.  Again, too short of a visit.  Will write about it more later..with pictures...

Right now I have a splitting headache, and I'm VERY tired. 

First day of kindergarten for Nicholas--no tears!  Just a huge smile, and a hug and kiss goodbye. 

First day back to work after vacation...urg..  Piles of boxes to sift through, and a 2 hour wait just to get my computer running.  Lolly luring about, and annoying as ever...  My new office is nicer, but hot!  No air circulation.  I got a fan-and I felt better, but head started to hurt-not even Advil or chocolate could cure it.

I got home..tired.  It's so hot over here--Northern California is experiencing a little heat wave at the moment.  It's too hot to cook, and luckily, mom fed the kids, and the older ones made their own. 

Relaxed in front of the T.V. and watched Big Brother.  Poor Michelle (my Portuguese player) got kicked out..oh well. 

Guess who else is Portuguese, from the Azores?  Meredith Vieira.  I knew she was, but on Monday I saw the today show and saw the following:

Although her family is not from the same island, it is amazing how so many people come out of  these small 9 islands in the Atlantic--spread across the world.  Very sweet, and surreal. 

Okay.. I'm beat. 

Goodnight good people of Jland.
