Get a Stick and Poke It...

It's been a few days since we blogged.  The reason for the short hiatus is that once my family and I had made it to Indiana, Karen and I had to get ready for and then participate in the one show we do every year.  Then, Sunday morning, while Karen and her daughter were getting ready for Day 2 at Holidaze, my family and I were driving back to NY.

Basically, this is me:

I got the littlest one (Number Five) clean, dressed in clean clothes that fit, matched AND were weather appropriate; got him on the bus and gone.  Then with the next youngest, I confirmed clean, made him change his shirt, found the lost backpack and then got Number Four out the door.  Number Three still wasn't moving.  She was face-first down in the bed.  I told Number Two to get a stick and poke it to make sure she was still with us - that finally got her moving and now she is gone.  Number Two planned ahead - she called her prof on Friday and let him know she wouldn't be in today and could he forward any work that couldn't wait until the next class.  He thanked her, rather profusely, for her consideration and told her not to worry, she was covered.  Number Two is now sleeping again.  Number One is on the road with her little Sprog coming home from their vacation and they are currently doing just fine.  The husband and I are now just sitting.  Lots to Do vs. Sitting.  Not a tough choice, my money is on Sitting, all the way.

I will leave you today with the mention that the Show went very well for us and to send out thanks to everyone that stopped by to say hello - it was truly great to see all your faces!  We'll post some pictures and such very soon - well, as soon as we've all recovered.
