Spending the Day in the Shirt That You Wore

Ma chère and the Ts left last Sunday. They are back in Wisconsin for the summer. La plus jeune soeur de ma chère flew in last week to help with the drive back. They got in early Monday morning.

It feels like they just got out here and now they are gone again. I am not complaining...okay maybe just a bit. It will be another long 8 weeks without them around. I miss the noise when they get the dog all riled up, the giggling, the dog trying desperately to catch them...ah the sweet sounds of chaos. This will be the first summer since 1989 that I will not get Up North. I hope the Sound is a good surrogate. And, I always sleep so crappy without my partner. Her pillow still smells of her.

It is good for them. The Ts get a bit of their old routine and friends back, if only for a bit. Ma chère spent the last few days as a social butterfly catching up with friends and family in Milwaukee. They should be Up North by the 4th.
