So Paul and I are now home from Orlando, all in one piece. It’s nice to be home, though my body is protesting the coldness! It was fairly warm in Florida until yesterday, so I haven’t adjusted yet. I didn’t do much blog-reading while I was gone, so I had fun this evening trying to catch up.

So last Tuesday I drove up to North Carolina to pick up my sister from school. I listened to “The Handmaiden and the Carpenter” (which I don’t recommend) on the way up, and walked around the campus for about an hour and a half while my sister got checked out of her room.

I’m used to driving to Orlando by myself, I’m used to traveling with the cats, and…

Paul does pretty well – he credits math and statistics for his knowledge of the Greek alphabet. I, on the other hand, have much to learn. Why this sudden interest in Greek, you ask? Well dear friends, we’d like to have SOME knowledge of the language before…
