I've been operating on Family Time this past week and a half. What with the visit to Florida to see Patrick's family and the arrival of my parents in North Carolina for a 10-day stay, I've had precious little time to spend in front of this here computing machine.

Family time is good. Family time is...
...completely forgetting about your normal life.
...watching adult siblings act like children once again.
...road-runner fast.
...molasses slow.
...a whole different dimension.
...full of stories past.
...celebration and eating out.
...relaxing.
...stressful.
...validating.
...deep breaths and deep belly laughs.
...wonderfully human, in all ways.

So much to write, so little time. I am sure, however, that my time is being well spent.
