And We're Home

Well, in an interesting turn of events, I woke up in GA this morning.

My foot is a problem so we couldn't do any outdoor activities.

Dogs were having a hard time -- nervous, upset, etc.

We saw my sister and her family for lunch on Saturday.

There was nothing else we'd do in Asheville together.

My foot's put a damper on this holiday week.

So we made a last minute decision and drove home last night. It's become so difficult to go up together with our old dog. He's just a mess in a different location (even though he's been going for 4 years). We can't leave him for long and he gets so nervous coming out with us. Even with anxiety drugs on board. Poor baby.

We think most of our trips will be solo ones until Monti is no longer with us -- that's not going to be too long. He's had a decline these last couple of months and the vet thinks we are close to the end. I don't wish him gone (of course), but we won't let him have an unhappy, upsetting ending.

I was able to get in a teahouse run before lunch. It's so good.

And finish this suspense book. 4.25/5 

It was one of our quickest family trips to Asheville and, while not horrible, but not the usual fun either. The newly installed HVAC is having trouble so we'll call on Monday (they were closed for the holiday). Hubby will probably head up this week if they can service and I'll go up the following week to un-decorate, clean and HOPEFULLY enjoy the usual Asheville.

Now time to start the January build up in earnest. 

Hope you have a good day.

Later gators.
