The last day | Sunday, June 25, 2006 |
Today was my parents last day here. We didn’t really plan anything except to go to Pramilla’s house for a long overdue visit. In the morning, they went out to Starbucks as usual, then the boys had a nap. In the afternoon, we headed out to Pramilla’s place. We got stopped by the UBahn police, and it turned out that I stamped the wrong box on the strief-karte. The guy was going to write us up, but then the other guy figured that we didn’t know what we were doing and since they don’t have the instructions in English, how are we supposed to know? So, they just let us go. Whew!
We had a nice visit with Pramilla and her family and we stayed there for a little while. It was good to see them again! Bill got in a bike accident and broke his arm and now he has a metal plate with 9 screws in his arm! It looked painful! But that didn’t stop them from going to the “FIFA House” in their backyard and drinking a beer.
On our way out, Rowan was getting pretty gutsy with going up and down the stairs and then he fell down. He got a nasty scratch on his nose and forehead but is basically ok. He is getting better with stairs, but he still needs help. Elijah isn’t nearly as gutsy!
The evening was spent just hanging out at home. My dad made his very tasty chicken for us one last time. Boy, we will miss all these great dinners! My mom fell asleep early on the couch, and I woke her up at around 1am to start packing. I started frantically putting everything together, all these CD’s that I needed to make for my cousin and for my dad and getting together whatever my mom needs to take back with her. It’s a lot of work. I was hoping to get my office cleaned up while she was here, but didn’t get to it. I thought I would have all this free time when they were here, but sadly I didn’t and/or I just got so darn lazy! So many things I had planned and didn’t do not a darn thing!!!
