these past few weeks have  been very, very busy.  First of all ,  we had to pack all the clothes we are  taking { which was a lot } in a suitcase .  secondly,  we had to get the truck working . that took 2 monthes to do { WOW } .  finally, we had to get food for 9 people for 3 weeks { crazy don’t you think } . as you can see we were ” as busy as a bee in the springtime “.
