 I took two baths last week, two more than I have in the last I don't know how many months at home.

my girl

Found this guy dead in my luggage Saturday night.  So apparently I had a roommate!

OK here comes the truth. ... I was so scared and so nervous to be away from Jill and Tony for an entire week.  And then, all of the sudden, it was Friday and I was waiting for the transportation service to bring us to the airport.  The week flew by.  The meeting agenda was jammed.  I was learning a ton, hanging out with great people (a new team for me!) and enjoying amazing weather.  I felt guilty for not feeling guilty.  I was Mom duty-free for 5 days and it was wonderful! 

My Mom had Jill Sunday night through Monday and my mother-in-law, Kim, spent a chunk of her school vacation sleeping on our couch so that she could spend time with Jill and help Tony in his single Dad-hood.  I knew Jill was in good hands.
