Back from Germany

I'm baaaack. In a matter of days, we head to the US for my mom's memorial service, and going through her things that are in storage while we visit relatives...

Germany was fun enough - rainy for the first week, and that was the week DH had his eye surgery so it wasn't really a touristy visit. We took the kids bowling and to a playplace and found a good used bookstore; we ate too much fast food and one good Mexican (!) (in Germany!) meal. We walked around the local village and town, saw some movies, visited old friends of DH, had fabulous ice cream, and toured one castle.

It's wonderful having DH home again now, and we are starting to eatsensibly again. I am not tracking food yet, but not inhaling cookies either. I call it a happy medium. Each day gets a bit better. Here's me in Sickingen (a village) - see the Germanness all around?

I am in total awe of the experiences that you are having while overseas. I always felt that in order to get a feel for a place you needed to spend more than a couple of weeks there.

Hey Susie. I'm just dropping you a line to get your email address so we can chat about stitch markers. ;o)

I so want to travel someday soon . . . we've decided to not wait until (insert your excuse of choice here). We're just going to do it. Love the photos!

I'll wait to hear back from you . . . you can always email from my Blogger profile page, or reply to the comment notification email.

All the best!
