whew!

vacation over, we're back at home. A week w/my folks is plenty--it was lovely, restful even, but it was enough. And now we're home. The hole in the bathroom ceiling is no bigger than when we left (despite much rain in our absence, so that's good) and yet nothing we left broken is miraculously fixed. I hate that. So now all the old stuff is still there to deal with. But I think I'll take a nap, and maybe do the laundry, first.
