Julia came home today
After nearly 20 years in Switzerland, she came home.
Not just for Christmas, but home.
John, Emily and I went to the airport to meet her.
Each Christmas she/we would scramble to meet with friends and family who wanted to visit her. This year will be a little more relaxed, because she wont be leaving in 3 weeks.
Julia brought 4 suitcases and 2 carry ons with her, and thankfully the porter at O'Hare helped John load the suitcases. They were heavy. (The suiitcases, not John and the porter.) A friend took her to the airport in Geneva, and we will always appreciate Matt for his kindness.
We had a nice family dinner, and I got to open my first window on the Advent wine calendar.....a white from Italy that was pretty nice!
A new era begins for her...and for us. She will be bunking with us for a while, wehich means she has to get used to 2 old people who can't remember shit.
Digressing, the other day I was in a coffee shop in Rockford and they had a message board. I was uplifted by some of the postings.
Maybe you will see something here that lifts your spirits or brings a chuckle.
Peace and Love
