Let the old times roll!
Well the other day we received the DVD that grandma and grandpa sent us, and it arrived intact! woohoo! So here we are watching it, and let me tell you life was so much easier back then I think. We all seemed happier, and in good spirits.
Kind of funny, in the 1986 Thanksgiving video, while spinning the bar chair I started to twist my hair, which is something I still do to this day. Then in the birthday video of Doug ('86 too I think) Doug started to bite his nails, which is something he still does to this day too... Some things never change do they.
We've had to pause it for now, while we clean up the place a little bit, but I think we will probably finish it today.
On a side note, Our DOS has decided to organize another meeting with the director, he wasn't in the best of moods the other day... I'm not looking forward to this, as I don't really think anything good will come of it.
Slept a lot last night, with my clothes on none the less.
Doug just took his socks off, and I think I'm going to hurl... It smells like a rotting corpse with some rotting cheese... It's disgusting!
I've got to get out of here... That's just gross! Maybe another update later.
Tom, so glad you are enjoying the '86 memories. Yes, life was much simpler then, even for us. Holly surprised us with a four week old white poodle puppy, last Sunday! I haven't quite completed the reprogramming process, to allow for a Baby in my schedule. The nites are worse....but it does seem to be getting better.
I don't quite understand what is going on with you, other than you think you will be coming home shortly, but have faith that you will get it all worked out. I know you have tried to explain it, but sometimes it takes me awhile to 'get it'.
My computer is going to the shop tomorrow, so I will be reading your page at the office. Will be looking forward to hear how you boys find a way to make Christmas in China, a very special memory to treasure for the rest of your lives. Just love each other first, and the rest will work it self out.
We wish you a Very Merry Christmas.
Love, Grandma & Grandpa
