So Dad decided to do a 500 piece puzzle, maybe more one night and Kilee was going to help. She got to help with the border and gave up. Cliff stayed up til who knows when and had half done.
Then he got off early from school and worked on it some in the afternoon and was done. I on the other hand wouldn't have undertaken such a hard puzzle with mostly gray or white pieces. He definately has more patience with some things than I do. More power to ya!
I was able to attend my first Time Out for Women even. It was fun. Even though I really knew no one and all the ladies kept calling me the youngin and talking about menopause, it was fun. Was glad it was only an hour away in Cinncinnati, technically south in Kentucky but oh well. Not sure I will travel any far distance like others who came from Michigan and Phoenix, and Florida, but glad to have gone and gotten a break. Not counting the time in the hospital with one while others at home with Grandparents and Cliff, or the two days or so Cliff took them to his folks while I threw up at mine pregnant with Kowen, or the 2 days Cliff and I got away last summer after Kilee's baptism, this was my only retreat in almost 12 yrs of marriage and the few days to myself. Wow, I should get out more. But I missed them and Daddy had a cake waiting for me and I got lots of hugs and kisses when I returned. Gosh, less than 24 hrs gone and they act like it was a long time. Oh well. It's good to know I'm loved.

We have them either here or in KC every year... I've never made it we are always out of town that particular weekend or some baby drama in my family. One day....
