Well, it's official.

Well, it is official.

I have found the twenty pounds that I lost in Ukraine. If only we had no air conditioning here. And I had to walk the better part of a mile to catch a bus to get anywhere. And the bus was as hot and steamy as a sauna. If only there were hills in my immediate vicinity. Unless you count highway overpasses, there are none.

I had very little desire to eat while I was in Ukraine. Since I've been home I can't seem to get enough food. It's a little scary. I've heard conspiracy theories about food additives that American food manufacturers use that make you want to eat more, and more, and more. What do you think of that?

I guess I'm also a little blue. It is really hard to go anywhere these days. Two of my big boys have gone off to college and the other is hardly ever home. It takes me a minimum of three trips to get everyone loaded in the van. So we mostly just stay home. I'm glad to be at home, but the kids need a change of scenery every now and then.

By the time I get everyone to bed I'm too tired to run to the grocery store or even to blog. I'm out of milk tonight but sitting here yawning. Something has got to give. Ya know?
