counting backwards.


I've been doing a lot of counting lately.  Yesterday was one more day of no sweets; today is thirteen more days of Arizona.  After thirteen days, there will be seven more days until Idaho.

Her countdown just ended; she's finally made it home.  Twenty more days, and we will be back home, too.

We will be able to eat from our green plates and we won't be confined to a single room of a house.  We will no longer have to walk down that long driveway to fetch the mail; our mailbox will be in our living room.  We will sleep on our own mattress again.

We have loved Arizona, but Idaho is calling.

If you haven't checked out Carolynn Cecilia's blog yet, you really should.  You can thank me later.
