Happy Monday Everyone! it's a sunny day here today and chilly.
With Thanksgiving being this past Thursday and all the days that followed was like a whirlwind. My daughter has been off from work and two of my grandkids that live nearby were home from college. So, our holidays were stretched into a marathon of eating and visiting.
Today life is back to normal. My daughter moaned and groaned about having to work and the grandkids left yesterday afternoon to go back to college.
I'm sure my oldest daughter is enjoying her quiet morning since the kids left even though it was fun having them home.
My big plan for today is laundry and of course trying to figure out what to make for dinner.
Now I'm going to chat here for awhile and see what I've missed these last few days.

@Marilynda1225 She is graduating already?
It seems like she just ventured off, how did that happen so quickly?
Next will be the twins......

We had a wonderful time and yes the kids will be back in a few weeks. My granddaughter will be graduating on Dec 16 and it's hard to believe her college years are over already. Time just flies

@Marilynda1225 it was actually quite nice. The nice one I’ve had in this marriage . It was quiet just my husband, our kids, my parents and my oldest nephews who is 20.

@Marilynda1225 Today my husband had his last CT Scan of the year at the hospital. We had pretty good news, at least on the health side we can relax for a while.

This is the time of year when it's hustle and bustle until the New Year. I'm happy to have today to relax a little and maybe so a bit cyber Monday shopping.

I put laundry off until Wednesday as my dryer is in the garage. Didn't want to go out there

It certainly was nice having them home. Yeah, most of their meals are hit or miss with their schedules.

It always seems sad to say goodbye to family members after holidays with them. Hope you enjoy time with them again at Christmas.

The day started off dark and gray and I thought it would rain, So I did not do laundry because I would have to dry it outside on my porch railings. Now the sun is out but the day is done, I will put in laundry tomorrow and what do you think will happen then?

I feel like I am always missing something. I thought I posted a certain discussion, but I may have only thought about it. I have not posted today, or maybe I did, just not that one.

I'm glad you had a wonderful time with your family and the grandkids. It sounds like everything is back to normal with the moans and groans from your daughter. I'm sure your daughter is thankful for the peace and quiet.
It's good to get back to a normal routine. Have a great day.
I'm still eating leftovers.
