I'm sure all of you have heard the tale of Mohammed and the Mountain. I related this to my Mom this morning as we were talking. She was telling me about the snow that was on the ground, the sleet that was coming down and the general icyness of the roads. You might imagine that none of this appealed to me and you would be right.
I told her that Mohammed had come to the Mountain enough times, it was time for the Mountain to come to Mohammed. Also, I wasn't moving back to that hot, err, cold mess of weather.
Mom has lived in La Porte County her entire life. I cannot even fathom it -- but then again I've lived in five counties in my entire life (La Porte, Vernon (MO), Marion (IN), Hamilton (IN) and Lee (FL)) -- and too damn many addresses to count rationally.

Sister and Boy Wonder arrive on Thursday. I can hardly contain my joy, cannot wait to see them both. I saw them last at the end of September when I was home for Lu. Friday will likely be spent poolside, followed by dinner with Rugby, then Saturday -- Bradenton Beach, followed by a trip to Dad's to celebrate his birthday. Sunday -- the birthday celebration, then return to FM.
I've made Boy Wonder's favorite cookies for him, as well as goodies for Sister too. I need to get them an Edison State tote to take home for all the goodies. :)
Rugby and I have had a couple more dates ... the more I get to know him, the more I like him. He's a good egg.
