• At our friends now, just outside of Seattle, I got most of the banking done before we got here….finishing it up now. #
• Finally done with banking, now I can visit with everyone. =) #
• Finally home, it has been a long day. Didn't realize that this is the first time our nephews have been away from their mom. #
• So there have been a few rough spots, but we'll get through them. Skype talking to mom is great help for them. #
• But now totally exhausted….heading to bed. #

• Just watched the fireworks from across the river…it is kind of cool to know that I'm watching WA fireworks in OR, from my street. #
• I love fireworks, when they sparkle (not just noise, those are stupid) and ONLY on the 4th. I hate them on non-holidays. #
• We have the house closed up, because all that noise freaks out our kitties, it is getting stuffy now even with the fans. #
• Usually I'm the only one from our row of houses out watching the fireworks, tonight about 10 other neighbors were out #
• Which was cool, but I felt like I lost my best kept secret…….lol #
• Love this Doonesbury strip on @GoComics http://bit.ly/k1Aorh Everything in perspective. #
