Well, I'm back in SC* with my good connection** and hoping to be part of LJ again. I've missed you all! I'm not going to try to go back and catch up--just starting in with today for both reading and writing.
It's daunting. The housesitter left the house clean, more or less, and the front yard mowed, and most plants still alive--but the back yard is a true jungle--three months of rain and sun do wonders for weeds. It may be beyond me--possibly I'll just weed out the flower beds and wait until fall kills the rest of the mess and start over. I have to find a better solution--like not going away for three months at a stretch, for starters.
One of the outside semi-stray cats is here, fine and healthy. Haven't seen the other yet--hope she's ok.
And then my car has an indicator light flashing. So I won't be able to get down to the beach to see if we need new roof shingles until next week. Oh, well, plenty to do here.
Other than all that, welcome home, Mamcu! At least the AC was working***!
*After trying to leave Chicago from the wrong airport--since when does the second part of a round trip leave from another airport?
**After a long session restoring my cable connection that the housesitter messed up
*** So far, anyway

I hear you about switching airports in Chicago. Atleast I didn't have to do it to catch another flight!

Welcome back!
Airport tales: Years ago I was returning from a year in Greece, loaded up with pack, suitcases, and two cats. Landed in Montreal at Dorval airport. My connection to Vancouver left from Mierabelle, which is miles away. Had to go through Customs, catch a shuttle and make the connection in just under 90 minutes. Made it by the skin of my teeth. So, I feel your pain. ;)
