Where have you been?

OK, so it should say: "Where have I been?", but ....

I've been traveling about every week: Fall River MA, Dallas, NYC and next week, Chicago. All company business and not fun.

Manchie and the kids love it when I travel because Manchie spends the night with one of them and you know how much mother-in-laws are welcome. Actually, our two kids-in-law don't seem to mind at all. Think they both enjoy Manchie coming over. Don't think it would be like that if it were me.

Macon and I went for our haircuts today. He's a trip. Our barber, Mr. Greg, asked me today if I had restraints in the car for Macon. Greg actually went outside looking for Macon while I was in the chair. The other customers certainly get entertained when we are there.

Knox and Macon went to Lowes this morning to build jack-o-lanterns (sp?). Their other Papa takes them to do the craft/building thing often. This Papa is the boring one.

Didn't see Katie this morning, but she and Hannah both had friends over to spend the night. Saw Hannah and her best friend, Skylar. Think Skylar is getting used to me....she took it all in without looking strange.

Manchie spend the afternoon at the store setting up for Christmas thingys. I stayed home so I could cook dinner (put "snaps" on the stove to cook). She and Marissa are going to Atlanta market this week for the Cash and Carry sale. Marissa has wanted to go and I had enough points to get a hotel room, so it works out this year.

Got to run..... start the grill.
