Dear So and So Letters - Visitors Center

A nicer version of Dear Loser Letters is Dear So and So Letters, so in celebration of reclaiming my house, my time, and myself from our last visitors leaving I have some So and So Letter Love to share-


Dear Family and Friends,

Thank you for your visit, I love your visits, we all do. I am so happy when you come and we can spend time together. Let's do it all again soon, about another year sounds right.

Signed,
Enjoying the Lack of Relatives and Newfound Peace and Quiet


Dear Abigail, our very shy cat,

You can come out of the closet now. The coast is clear, all those strange people are gone. Well, except the strange people you are used to, aka your family.

Signed,
I tawt I saw a Puddy Cat


Dear Charley, our very social dog,

I am sorry you are missing the nonstop love and attention heaped upon you these last few weeks. It makes us sad to see you wander around the house looking for your entourage.

Signed,
My dog is an Attention Starved Teddy Bear


And just one more for good measure because I haven't done this in awhile-


Dear People who Say "No Problem" after I say "Thank You",

The correct term is "You're Welcome".
Thank you.

Signed,
You're Welcome

In Between Visits

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.)
