In-laws head home

Written by

Well after 3 weeks the in-laws have gone home.

It was nice having them around, they did a lot around the house: gardening, cutting the grass, helped put the up the gutters, recycle the boxes in the basement.

I think I learned a few new portuguese words. I knew, cega/cego, but I thought it was spelled sega (because of the company probably). I learned pode, though I don’t use it much. I really do suck a foreign languages.

Life should return to normal. Cooking/cleaning/transporting 4-6 people (when we went out with my mom and step-dad) seemed like too many people. We only have 8 dishes and they rarely seemed clean at the same time so there was lots of dishes going through the dish washer often.

My husband and I also only have sets of 8 for our dishes, glasses, etc., so it is always one of my first concerns when we have people over! I feel your pain! 🙂

Somehow our ice despencer on the fridge managed to break one of our glasses so now our complete set is icomplete! I plan on calling Marshall Fields to see if they will replace it as I believe an ice despencer should not be able to break a glass.
