It has been so long since I last blogged that I had to look up my username and password. How bad is that?
So, most of you know that I have moved and have been without internet connection. I am WAY out of touch because I haven't been able to read others' blogs or email. But now I have the means to blog and read email, so I'm back in the current century. Remember when we wrote letters people? I still have darling stationery to use up, but I need to buy the new more expensive stamps. Ah well. For now, it's a mediocre blog entry.
So I'm on my own with my two boys. Well, sort of. My soon-to-be-former-husband is around often to help out with stuff.
Sidenote: I told my kids that I didn't want to call Dad my ex-husband because it had a bad connotation. I decided on "The Man Formerly Known As My Husband", much like "The Artist Formerly Known As Prince". But then my son asked me if we should, like Prince did, assign Dad a symbol for his new name. Don't go there.
Today I mowed the lawn and did a very small bit of yard work. My word but it's hot out there!
I still have a few boxes to unpack and some kitchen gadgets to sort through. As a general rule, things must have more than one use to live at my house, but the kitchen gadgets have slid through the cracks. I have to sort and decide. Especially with Pampered Chef stuff. I suppose if I made hors d'oevres on a regular basis I'd be more apt to keep it all. But we mostly just peel or wash our carrots, not cut them into ridges and funky shapes.
My parents are visiting their homeland for the next few weeks, and the emails and photos they send are priceless. They are being hosted by my dad's old schoolmate who found him 50 years after Dad moved to the states. Henk (the friend) sent us a picture of his school class when he and my Dad were about 8 years old. Priceless!
OK, so after almost 2 months of silence, I'm out of things to say. Sorry so short, but that's all I've got.

That's ok. I'm just so glad to see you back online. It's been sad and lonely every time I clicked on your blog. Good luck with the organizing, and we'll have to come and visit soon.
Nice to "hear your voice"!
