I made the trip out to Michigan this weekend. It wasn't the 3-day weekend we're normally used to spending together, but it was sorely needed. I could tell that talking on the phone wasn't good enough for either of us... especially when the gal has been sick for the past week. Chicken soup can only go so far.

We had fun this weekend - snuggle-time at home, made gingerbread men, and made a day trip down to Frankenmuth for shopping and yummy chicken dinner. I probably ate the equivalent of a whole chicken this weekend... *bawk*

5 more days until I'm on vacation. 2 weeks off. Visiting Michigan and California, both Tahoe and the Bay Area. Damned if that isn't going to make returning to work any harder...
