…is over. We made an airport run to drop our bonus daughter off at metro at 0-skunk-30 this morning to continue her holiday adventures. After we dropped her off and got onto I275, I could see the first rays of today’s sunrise.

I was kind of a nervous wreck. I could not believe how much traffic there was on that run. I knoooooow it’s just after Thanksgiving. I wish I had taken a picture but I was sitting in the back seat of Cygnus just trying to keep myself calm and collected. It helped that bonus daughter was very calm, chatting with the GG in the front. She flies all over the place all the time so this was just another day in the air and she sent a pic of her and a friend meeting at Metro because they were both there at the same time. I mean, they planned to make that happen, it wasn’t random.

Bonus daughter didn’t actually stay with us. She bunked with Little Cat Z. Much more fun and they even co-worked a bit. Despite a four-year age difference, they have always been close and some of my fave memories are of LCZ singing to BD upstairs at the moomincabin when BD was fussing a bit, as young babies do. BD grew up (as young babies do) and ROCKS the world. I had a hard time dropping her off and am missing her. If the stars align correctly, we hope to see her in the summer.

The pic is of the GG playing with one of his boy toys, a big yooperland sized snowblower. We didn’t really get a lot of snow but it was kind of fugly snow and from what I’m told the roads weren’t great Sunday morning when this was taken. Thankfully everything was dry for our airport run this morning.

But then, the GG came home and spent ALL DAY working on the jigsaw puzz (and finished it) and THEN! He started rummaging. I was dealing with another (somewhat stressful) issue and I was NOT a happy camper. Oh don’t worry, it’s technical crapola and it’ll get sorted out eventually, which I am okay with. For now. Ticket successfully filed. Onward.
