Wow, did this past weekend fly by or what?
Friday was a busy and productive day here at Chez Nana. I got a lazy start to my day but made up for it by doing my pre-trip cleaning … am I the only one who “needs” the house thoroughly cleaned and tidied up before leaving on a trip?
Saturday DH and I spent most all the day at the YMCA watching T#1 and T#2 swim at a meet. At least this meet was at their local YMCA rather than one a good 2 hours away … like the last one I went to. T#1 made it to the semi finals in freestyle but didn’t advance to the finals … still we were so proud of him for making it to the semi finals.
Both are are screenshots of the videos I took with my iPhone … I tried to upload the videos, but I couldn’t figure out how to do that.
I spent all afternoon and evening Sunday packing and preparing for our trip … not very exciting, and yet it is. We booked this last January, and I’ve always kept myself from getting too excited by reminding myself that it was so far away … as it got closer, there was the priority of Christmas. Now we’re so close … and it just doesn’t seem possible, and yet the half-packed suitcases in the spare bedroom tell me that it is.
DD has another doctor’s appointment this morning, so I’ll have some T-time … perfect timing as I’ll have 2 weeks without my Ts.
Those are pretty good pictures to come from a video from your iPhone. Do you have the iPhone 5? I'm hoping when our contract expires in October this year to get one maybe.
ReplyDeletePacking -- hate it and love it. Not necessarily fun to do but it usually means fun stuff is coming.
Yes, I prefer to leave with my house clean. Although, I don't always make it.
Have fun with the T's.
Good morning! Glad you enjoyed the swim meet. Soo fun. And yes, I too have the NEED to leave the house in perfect order, haha. Why am I not surprised? Enjoy your time with the grands... : )
ReplyDeleteYup, I need to leave the house in pretty good shape when we leave too! So glad your trip is getting near! I think the anticipation is a great thing - it expands the trip! ~Jeanne
ReplyDeleteI hope the cruise is a fun filled experience for you. The T's will miss you while you're gone.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy every minute with those T's...
ReplyDeleteI clean as well when we go away. Something about coming in to clean house after vacation makes it all worth while. Great pictures from a video! Well done.
ReplyDeleteHaving a clean house before you leave makes it so much nicer to come home to after the vacation!
ReplyDeleteHave a good time! Can't wait to hear about it!
So when do you leave, cruise right - where are you going? How long? Sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteNo your not alone, I like a clean house too. I have a Droid2 but when I take a video I can tape on the bottom of the picture and send it almost anywhere. I usually send them to youtube and put them on my blog from there. I don't like packing for trip....
ReplyDeleteHi friend, So very excited for you; if I remember right you are doing the Western Carribbean? We loved seeing Puerto Rico. You'll have such a great time.
ReplyDeleteI know you won't have computer time(it is very costly)but feel free to email me from your phone with any needs. Hugs today.

You are wise to start packing early. I hope you have a great time. We have talked about a "significant" trip for our 40th anniversary this year, but with our addition and remodel...IDK, it might not happen!

ReplyDeleteWhen I was working at the library last night, I realized a whole week of 2013 is already in the history books and I couldn't believe it!
