The family arrived, celebrated and left. The house went from quiet to noisy back to quiet. My hours went from business to vacation back to business. The calories went from weight-watchers lean to extravagant excess back to WW. The money flow went from a trickle to a flood back to a trickle. All told it was a great vacation, and holiday. I was so so happy to see my family and to get to share in their busy lives.
