Thanks guys
It's been lovely but today is the last day. Then again: on Tuesday Sis2 will arrive in Vienna with her husband and kid
Not yet sure where I'll find the energy for more socializing but we'll get there when we get there. I learned this week that my mom needs alone time as well: she either used to hide that from us or she never realized herself until after we all left home. Growing up in a giant family and then having kids right after moving out could have that effect.
Foodwise I've done ok. Overate at brunch on Sunday and had a few too many sweets on Tuesday but nothing too crazy and I moved plenty every day. Don't know if I lost weight but I definitely debloated. Bought a nice t-shirt in faded dark gray with a blue and green butterfly.
Liza, I made a vegan chocolate cake on day one, tear & share pizza bread on day two, and apple pie on day 4. It was my mom's birthday on Tuesday and we had so many aunts and uncles over
The weather suddenly turned wonderful after a couple of weeks of cold dampness so we sat outside and everyone stayed forever. Then the next day Sis2 and I visited an aunt's art exhibition (for which I actually drove one way because this sister hates driving as much as me) which was interesting. On Friday I went rock climbing with the boys and yesterday was zoo day. The other days were shopping (once with a friend and once with a sister) and walks. Oh, I also finished Sis3's dream catcher. Well, it's even less of one than the first because I made leaves to hang off it instead of feathers. Here's a pic of the hoop part.
It's a tree of life and I really like how it came out. Not my pattern, of course.
I'll catch up on diaries at the airport later. For now I need to shower, pack, scrounge up some breakfast, and then it's off for one more walk&lunch with the family.
