Hello and I hope you had a great weekend or are having a great week, or whatever your time frame is today. I'm recovering from my wonderful visit with my big sister and her family. In addition to going to the pool, restaurants, and shopping, we mostly just "hung out" and had alot of laughs. (At least several times during their visit, I laughed so hard I almost had to pull over the car while driving. Gosh, we are downright funny people, I tell ya!) I relish my relationship with my sister because we were not close growing up with eight years and two brothers between us. I've always looked up to her and now we see eye to eye and sometimes she looks up to me. Very cool. Love you guys, wish you all weren't so far away.
So, I say goodbye to my dear Sister and her family, and now get ready for my Sister In Law, teenaged niece, and her friend to come visit us tomorrow for a few days. They live in a small beach town on the Central Coast of California and are looking forward to some Big City Sights including a trip to Chinatown for lunch, hitting the malls and stores as only SoCal can do, and hanging out with our two boys at the pool.
Of course, visits from company = laundry. Lots and lots of laundry. Our clothes dryer has also decided to take a vacation, well at least the heating element, so now I am waiting for yet another visit, this one from Vlad, my appliance repair guy. Thank goodness for the hot, dry California sun which is not taking any time off and is doing an able job of drying our clothes.
So, Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho, it's back to work I go. And back to clean the house, and get ready for company, Again. My boss says it because I live in Paradise. You know what, she's right.
Wishing you a Slice O'Paradise today and everyday, thank you for your visit! (Especially since it creates no laundry.)

Ah, virtual visitors! The best kind!
I'm glad you're enjoying everyone else's summer vacation at Hotel Martha. It's always nice when family visits are for fun.
I like having family visit, but sometimes I've wished for disposable sheets and towels!
Oh I'm so jealous! I wish I could put my laundry out on the line. I have fabulous memories of doing this at my grandma' house when I was a kid...Hope you had a great weekend!
I'm glad for you that you enjoyed your family.
sounds like you are busy! have fun and enjoy your family!
I love your new blog background/template! I'm sure its not new..I just haven't had a moment to read it in the past weeks.
Dontcha just love the way you can crack up with family...its totally different than with anyone else.
That sounds like so much fun! I'm glad you are enjoying the visitors. We got a lot more when we lived in St. Louis than now that we live in Seattle. Which is funny because Seattle is like a billion times cooler. No offense, St. Louis, you are lovely in your own right.
Have a great time!
I'd dry our towels on the line, but they'd mold. Oh well. It's not the heat, it's the humidity. No, it's the heat.
Sounds like you've been busy! I totally agree about the lots of company or lots of trip = lots of laundry. Don't you just wish it would do itself? ((Hugs))
sounds like a wonderful time and i hope you have a great visit with the next round... thanks for stopping in and checking up on me... xox.... annie
Love me some family visits!
I have some very cutie baby laundry that needs to be done. Could you handle that?
hahaha! hope you had a nice trip!
laundry multiplies when you blink! how does that happen?!
I am so glad you had a nice time with your sister and her family! Hope the next round of visitors was a fun time too. Since I also live in paradise on the other side of the country it seems I attract visitors as well, LOL! Have a great weekend Ms Martha :-)
