How is it that 2009 is almost half way over? I remember when a year used to seem like a year, since having kids a year seems to fly by in a few months. I can’t believe its been three weeks since I last blogged, it was the quickest three weeks of my life.

My husband and I flew out to New York to pick up our RV. We bought this site unseen and were a bit nervous about it but we were more than pleasantly surprised at the condition its in. The inside has more storage space than I know what to do with and there is also tons of storage space underneath. I’m going to do minimal work to the inside, just recover the couch and reupholster the window boxes.

I have to tell you about the trip to pick up the RV; it was quite an event. Our flight to Charlotte was delayed so we missed our connecting flight to New York. Our one hour layover in New York turned into a four hour layover. I was surprised at how fast the time went at Charlotte airport, it really is nice for an airport. They have all these great rocking chairs by the windows overlooking the tarmac. We kicked back and read while waiting for our next flight.

The delay had us getting into JFK right at peak hour Memorial Day weekend. We were caught in traffic with all the people escaping the city for the weekend and it took us over 3 hours to go about 60 miles. I finally understand the saying there is no place like home. I’ve never really settled and enjoyed my nomad lifestyle but the traffic in New York made me appreciate the wonderful little piece of the world we live in.

I have lots more to blog about and a contest to announce the winner of but this will have to wait until this afternoon. I need to get the kids dressed and get them off to daycare.
