Getting settled

I spent most of today running around Phoenix. Groceries, propane tank refill, Walmart and visited a good friend from our townhouse days. I was way over-dressed in jeans and a long sleeved shirt. Very beautiful and immediately came home and put on shorts and t-shirt. While talking to Mark tonight he said he was waiting for the furnace to kick on and I was waiting for the AC to kick in. That is what 1400 miles will do I guess.

Megan went to the Iowa-Wisconsin game today. It was a nail-biter and not a good outcome for our Hawkeyes. I had taped it and planned to watch it when my errands were finished but I peeked on ESPN.com and found out the final score and just could not bear to watch it. I am one who always identified with the "agony of defeat"! :-( The ISU Cyclones did have a huge victory over Texas, though. Glad some people are happy back home!

I am going to try to get my butt up and hike tomorrow morning. It has been a long time but that IS one of the reasons I came out here now so I hope I do it.

I wish I had updated video/photos of Drew and Kayley but that is rather impossible. I won't say how much I miss them but I will say it is way more than my sadness over the Hawkeyes if that gives you a clue... :-)

Have a fantastic Sunday.
