The alarm clock didn’t work this morning. The limo was to pick up Kris and my two granddaughters at 7:30 this morning. I didn’t wake up until 7:15... I woke the girls and they managed to get dressed quickly enough that the limo driver only had to wait about five minutes. They were on the road to Tampa on time. We didn’t have much time for goodbye hugs and tears..... Nor a quick breakfast for them.

It has been a lonely and quiet day. Rain has made it worse. The only good thing is that the TV and computer have gotten a rest. The girls kept both going every minute they were in the house, while they were here. I haven’t been in the mood to fire either of them up today. I do plan to watch the Sugar Bowl game between Florida and Cincinnati tonight, though. Maybe that will help me get back in to my old routine.
