Here I am at home, all alone. I left the kids at the airport. (That sounds bad, doesn't it? What I mean is that I put them on a plane to Utah. Just wanted to clarify that.) I'll have the house to myself for two and a half weeks, then I'll be in Utah for two weeks, then I'll have the house to myself for another two and a half weeks, and then the kids will be back. I'm going to have a lot of people to thank for their help over the summer.
I mentioned the other day that I need to relearn how to relax this summer. It also occurs to me that come September, I'll need to relearn how to unrelax. I've already started to forget how crazy life is when the kids are in school, Tanner has swimming, Lindsey needs a lot of help with homework, and I'm trying to feed the kids and do laundry in there somewhere. Ah, life.
Shifting gears, I got word yesterday that the U.S. State Department is again advising Americans against traveling to Egypt. It looks like the military is on the verge of taking over the government. I've said this many times before, but I'm sooooooooo glad that Tanner and I were able to travel around Egypt last year. It was a fabulous experience. We caught it just at the right time--things had settled down from the initial revolution, and the country didn't have the out-of-control feeling that I'm getting right now. I'm still rooting for Egypt to make it. It's going to be rough for a while.
