Still recovering from holiday excesses!
I had a great visit with my family - better than expected, by far. Much debate with uncle and cousins, entirely too much food, and a quick visit with L. and her fiance R. It sounds busy but was very restful - a great break from routine and lots of thoughtful conversation.
The biggest event of the trip was seeing my sister's new house - hardwood floor library (drool!). I think she's happy to be back in Atlanta, though she's going to be unpacking for awhile.
Also visited with my cousins again, who are still kind of "new people" to me as I've only recently reconnected with them as adults (I moved away just as they were getting interesting). I warned them that I'm a bad influence - hope they believe it! :P
Both incoming and outgoing flights were very early so I spent much both flights (and much of Saturday) napping. I'm still not quite back "on kilter" and this is why this entry is rather lacking in glittering prose and detailed breakdown. I had a good time. I feel mostly ok going into the holiday season. Incredibly, I have some ideas for Christmas presents for people. This is about all I can muster right now!
