Missing Joe...

Joe's been out of town two full weeks this month (separated by one at-home week) and it has really been lonely without him :( (I know, I know, poor me, boo hoo, right?) Well I miss him a lot, dang it! He flies home tomorrow morning and the girls and I can't wait to go and pick him up at the airport.

We've been keeping pretty busy this week with preschool, library story time, and my humongous project...sorting and separating all of the girls' toys into four big bins for rotation. Phew! I am so proud of myself for finishing that task. We ended up with three big bins of toys and two big bins of stuffed animals. Yowza. That's all I'm gonna say.

This morning I made milk toast for breakfast and for dinner we're having squeaky bean soup...I must have the spirit of Grandma Bean with me today or something. She was such a sweet lady. I hope that I can be a kind hearted woman like she was...eventually...when I've gained more patience and tolerance...and a frizzy perm. Just a few days ago was the one year anniversary of her death. I'm sad that she's gone, but happy that she's square dancing with Grandpa Bean this very minute.
