Quick update

All of the South Carolina Pennas are back home now.

John and I flew from Newark to Columbia, SC, on Saturday, then took a cab to GSP. They overbooked our flight and no one else wanted to volunteer, so we did. Don't think I would do it again, but now it's over with and we have $800 in travel on Continental.
Tony got back to SC from Louisville yesterday morning, and also started tech rehearsals for a show in Greenville yesterday afternoon. So, he'll be shuttling back and forth between Clemson and G'ville all week until the show opens on Friday. He assures me that he will be able to spend at least 45 minutes at home each afternoon... It's definitely a lesson in not taking time together for granted! I will be EXTRA thankful this year when the semester is over, and his traveling is over for awhile.

We have an appointment with Feiste this afternoon for the weekly ear check. Still haven't heard from the new ENT. I'm planning on calling them today, if I can get my work done before we have to leave for the doctor.

John and I had a great time in New York over Thanksgiving. Although it took him a day or two to warm up to everyone, he was hugging everyone continuously by the time it was all over. More details about the trip soon, but the highlight was seeing my mom's brother and his family, all of whom we rarely see. They are as wonderful and welcoming as always, and their three boys are articulate, friendly, and very grown-up!

Hope that everyone's Thanksgiving was as full of love and food as ours was!
