To Grandpa's House

Yesterday was a long day. We awoke to find ants come through the southwest corner of our home. There were trails everywhere. It's not tons of food to feast on or unwashed dishes or anything like that. It's just that with five kids, chips and sugar bits end up under the couches or wherever. It took 3 hours to clean it all up. I think part of it is that the weather has been so hot, it drives them inside the house. Well, after that was over we had to sort through all the clothing and get packed to go on a trip to grandpa's George's house. While I was vacuuming the car and mounting the roof rack, Bonnie was the laundry Queen. As usual we did not leave the house until 7 PM. We each take turns driving at night. It may be kind of silly, but I like to use the trip-meter. The total journey is about 430 miles. I like focusing on what I have achieved, and how much farther I have to go. I drove 110 miles, then Bonnie drove over 100 miles, then I drove 120 miles, and she finished up. With frequent stops, we arrived safely. Rebecca was very helpful this time and I'm going with car at 3 AM. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
