Tougher than I am...

The list of people that are tougher than I am is not a short one...and certainly somewhere on there is room for SWMBO.  Today, she loaded herself, her mom and the kids in the car for an overnight trip to Portland, Oregon. The plan was to stop on the way down at Multnomah Falls, get to Portland in the early evening, then crash at the hotel, before doing the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry tomorrow, and then heading home.

Not a killer trip, but deciding to go on a road trip with her mom and girls maybe makes her braver than smarter.  All in all though, it's a much more sane plan than her original idea for her mom's visit, which involved a possible 2000 mile round trip, and three or 4 nights on the road.

My only real mission while she is gone to ensure that I get some stuff moved over to the new apartment, catch up on laundry, and make sure there is a glass of wine waiting for her when she gets home tomorrow night.

Might just have to open the bottle tonight to make sure it tastes okay, and gets a chance to air out tonight.
