Parents Visiting

My parents are to be here either today or tomorrow for a week or maybe longer. Am I ready? NO, the floors need swept, and mopped. I need to change the sheets on Savannah's bed (she does not want them to sleep on her new monkey sheets) and get her a bed made up in Dominick's room, finish up laundry, go to the grocery store, and the list goes on and on.

I remember when they first sold their house and moved to Arizona, they said they would be home every Christmas, and in the summer. They have not made it for one Christmas, and sounds like this may be the last summer. They are selling their motorhome, and staying in Yuma full time now. It's strange, I always wanted my parents to be hands on grandparents, but they are young grandparents, who found their second life, and have been enjoying their retirement. Which I have to say they deserve, but I just wish their retirement place was closer to us. The kids miss them, I miss them.

Sigh................

Off to get things moving, before they get here.

Did you know Yuma is only 300 miles from Las Vegas? Might be time for you to move south.
