As I watched the sun burn off the fog this morning on my way to work I realized it was Mother Nature giving me a gift.

I’m guessing she was trying to say sorry for the shitty summer.

has still not ended.

First directions:

Thruway to XXX South

Exit XX – take left at light

1^st light – take right onto XXXXXX Road

1^st light – take left onto XXXX XXXX (this is a few miles down the road)

When you get to the center of town XXX Street will be on your left. There is a canon on the corner and the post office is on your right.

House is about ½ way down street. #XX

Second:

I may or may not have gotten it in my head to paint the upstairs bathroom 2 days before your visit. This could have resulted in the rest of my life getting away from me. Also, I may not have use of my arms any longer. I am going to apologize now for the disaster that is my home. This is one of those errors in judgment that will provide you with a story to tell for the rest of days. It also may cause you to run screaming from my home.

Third:

The painting is still not finished.

Fourth:

Will you be in time for dinner? I’m not sure when the kids eat. Also, what do they like for breakfast? At the rate my week has been going I will be shopping at midnight tonight when you are all asleep. I will however, make sure there is plenty of wine so you will perhaps not mind the chaos quite so much.

Can’t wait to see you!!!
