Well, today is our final day in exile. The Momma Pug North American Headquarters will be reopening the home office later this afternoon and operations expect to return to normal status by Wednesday. We know we have electricity, but we are told that Internet connections remain sparse at best. I will be returning to my day job tomorrow and will perhaps be able to post an update on things before I head home from work. Otherwise, if you guys don’t hear from us for a couple of days it’s because AT&T Uverse is forcing a cruel, slow death on us by media and entertainment withdrawl. If things get desperate, we might be forced to use the DVD player or rely on the three local television channels for entertainment. Or bust out the Wii for some friendly cow racing. Failing that, we just might have read a book or have copious amounts of husband/wife relations. The key is to be creative and you’ll find that the possibilities really are endless.
While we are so grateful for the wonderful time the in laws have provided, we are also excited to be going home. I can’t wait to sleep in my own bed and take a shower with all my own products surrounding me. Any deposed ruler will tell you that it’s the everyday stuff that you miss most while in exile. What good is it to be queen if you have no kingdom to rule? So I’m relieved that we will be heading back to our realm. There are surfs and peasants to be flogged and feasts to be had. It’s good being royalty.
Also, I’ve decided that my sister -- who is pregnant and due in February – is having a little girl. I’ve come to this conclusion not based on instinct or gris-gris or even a sonogram picture showing a bajingo. Rather I came across a really cute pillowcase dress and I am overwhelmed by the urge to MAKE ONE NOW FOR THE BABY. And since we have no idea what sex it is, I’m just going to go ahead and throw caution to the wind and start sewing some up. Because I am crazy like that. So crazy in fact that now that I’ve gotten it my head, I can’t stop until I make Preemie Donna one too.
SERIOUSLY, is this not the cutest little dress ever!
