Well, I apologize for the lack of posting. The VP and I have been busy attending various functions with the Grand Lodge of Minnesota. Masons from across the state gathered in the Twin Cities for the annual changing of the Grand Poohbah and various other housekeeping tasks. In between break-out meetings on how to recover the Templars' hidden treasures or helpful hints on levitating barnyard animals, they held a few formal dinners. I went to one. It was all my feet could stand. High heels two nights in a row would have crippled me.
Foot agony aside, the dinner and other programs I attended were wonderful. Several women I had met in England last summer had come over with their husbands and we had a great time catching up and making promises for future trips across the pond.
But I'm glad it's over. I haven't spent much time at home this past week, and it rather breaks one's heart to learn that your 3-year-old was talking in his sleep saying, "I miss my mom."
Almost as wrenching - I've had to cut back severely on my stalking. The weather is finally warming up, and instead of perched in the bushes outside Casa del Sisyphus wearing my camo fatigues, I've been hanging around hotel ballrooms in tea-length dresses and debilitating footwear.
Enough of the morose - tonight I am back home. I was able to tuck my kids into bed and not just drop an unacknowledged kiss on their brows long after they fell asleep.
And while I may not have been able to follow Sisyphus all week, I still have the wiretap recordings and GPS data to review at my leisure.
Life is good.
