Well as you know Jim's mom and dad are going to be here today. I am so excited that they are coming up. The house is not spotless, but an organized chaos. It could be worse. They should be here about 6. That means I have to get grocery shopping done and home before then and I don't get off until 5.

We spent last night cleaning and putting up new shelves in the master bedroom closet. I haven't had a walk in closet since we moved out of the apartment in 1990. I am looking forward to getting everything organzied. Now maybe I can see what I have and don't have.

The front bathroom is back together. Going to put up a border of magnolias in there after the in laws leave. I love magnolias...they remind me of home.

I told Jim the other day that we are going to have to make a trip to Nashville soon. We became an aunt and uncle again in July and still have seen the little munchkin. From what I have heard he is absolutely adorable. Why wouldn't he be? He's an Alvis. All the Alvis men are good looking.

I thought it would this month that we would get to Nashville, but no such luck. There is something going on every weekend this month and October is getting to be just as full.
And here I was worried that I would be bored and lonely up here again.

Keeping busy has been good for me. Trying to get settled with moving and a new job. I still miss Tennessee and the family. Leaving them and my best friend Jennifer was the hard part. I told Jim that I do want to go back to Tennessee again. I would be happy if we could retire. At least then I know that I have something to look forward to.

Gotta fly. I am writing this on my lunch hour and it is almost over.

Take care,

Beth
