A little part of you inside of me will never die.

This has been a long week. Returning home from Athens, we spent the rest of the day packing and loading the boy's stuff to take him to school. Then we spent a few nights in Cincinnati, to get to know the place a little, and take care of last minute business for the boy (he was otherwise occupied settling in.) Now we're back in Athens for more family occasions.

There's been a lot of driving these past few weeks. I hate that part. It's been aggressive to my thighs. But when it's all over it will just be the two of us. But we've been two before and that was very nice, too.
