An Exercise in Futility….

Life is good. Mom was in town visiting this weekend while husband was in Georgia playing rugby. We weren’t tourists as planned. Instead we went shopping on Saturday and yesterday hung around the house since Mom was hit by a cold.

In all, a quiet, relaxing weekend. I’m thankful for my wonderful family and fantastic life.

I’ve been in Atlanta this weekend (and by Atlanta, I mean my parents’ house in the ‘burbs and my extended family’s homes in the exurbs). My grandmother’s 79th birthday was yesterday and we had a family lunch on Saturday. Yesterday I watched my 4.5 year old nephew play soccer and played with my 2.5 year old niece. Both are adorable!!

I’m headed back home today and am going to trivia with the girls tonight. I’ll have to write a separate post about the different team names we’ve had. Hysterical.

Next weekend, we’re headed to Rhinebeck. More details to come…

Husband has an odd relationship with his parents (and his brother too). He had not talked to his mom since mid-April. He exchanged voicemails with his parents around Father’s Day. Imagine my surprise when I got to the CSA pickup location on Wednesday and climbed into husband’s car only to discover that he was on the phone with his mom. Moreover, the big shocker: she called him!

That reminds me…I need to call my own parents.
