All Together Now

I was wrong in my last post saying that we were only 3 hours from being home. Actually, the trip from Orlando to Albany only took 2 1/2 hours. Talk about a quantum leap! It all went smoothly, thanks to the Sky Caps and porters. With Mom being in a wheelchair, we got to board the plane first, pick our seats in the front, and then get off the plane first. Cindy, the 5 lb. Maltese, behaved exceptionaly well, and slept (without medication) the whole trip. She had only been in her carrier once or twice as a trial, so we were happy she adapted...something she doesn't do very well.

Reality hit hard when Dave picked us up and we walked out the airport door. It was 40 degrees out....BRRRRR! The next several days are predicted to be even colder, so we all need to get used this weather and adapt. I was really hoping that if we waited until the end of April, the weather would be better for Mom. Gee, we should have gone with Dave since he had 80+ degree weather when he arrived. Oh well, we'll just keep pushing the themostat in the house higher and higher.

It's good to be home again though, and fun to get everything reorganized. At least the leaves are starting to come out on the trees and the flowering bushes are beginning to bloom also. Soon my yard will hopefully look like this again.
