Yesterday it never went above 50 F here and I had to turn the heat back on as the twins were complaining that they were cold. Since last weekend it's been gray and cloudy with intermittent rain and wind. Cassie's home today and she canceled her Provence trip as she just has too much to do. The rest of our personal shipment arrives today and we're all the way in after that.
Both Kian and Niall are carrying very high averages in their Strayer University classes and we are all well pleased with the choice which frankly I was apprehensive about not having any experience with colleges online although we've read many articles extolling the virtues of online study. Cassie and I are just glad that it's working and that it's looking like Kian will finally make it through college math which is GREAT!
In the next couple of weeks we make our first European trip to London on the Eurostar through the "chunnel" which scares our French buddy Veronique but hey, we're intrepid. At least there should be no volcanic ash down there.
Grocery shopping yesterday was a madhouse after the holiday weekend and I got elbowed aside by a number of little old ladies who beat me to the bananas. I ended up buying the "organic" brand that was just as good but more expensive. Gotta love this place. Cassie brought back goodies from the states in her big suitcase which is what a lot of ex-pats do when they return home from time to time. She also had a great and restful visit with Vivian and Bob and got some good sun while she was there too. She looked at me coming in the door and said, "what happened to the Spring?"
Mid terms this week for the twins. Time to try the market again today to see if I can get everything without being trampled.
Love to all everywhere!
