For most people the holidays were over two weeks ago. However, we were able to make them last an entire month !
Our son arrived home on December 14th and I took him back to the airport here in Medford on Saturday January 14th. Between those dates we celebrated the arrival of our daughter from DC, Christmas, New Years, made a trip to the BCS Championship in Arizona and made a trip to Eugene to see a basketball game in the new Matthew Knight Arena. When we arrive home on Sunday from the basketball game we came home to an empty house. Both of our children are safely back in their homes "back east" as they used to say in the Westerns. Today, it's cold, rainy and foggy here in Medford and the house is quiet and empty.
But, just think, the NFC/AFC Championship games are next Sunday, the Super Bowl is two weeks after that and the college football "letter of intent" day is February 2nd and we have a Duck recruiting dinner that same day here in Medford. And I haven't even talked about movies, music, history and politics.
"Tomorrow is a new day."
