Empty Nesters

The son that still lives in our basement is gone to Guard drill this weekend. So this is our first weekend as empty nesters. It is quiet. We had breakfast of eggs and pancakes made by my darlin. I finished a letter to our son the recruit and then we went to the hospital to see my Mom, who had a bilateral knee replacement surgery yesterday. We did a little shopping, a little hand holding, a little cleaning, a little baking and had a nice supper. We did the dishes and now it is time for a movie, a glass of wine and snuggling. All in all a very nice day.
