There's no place like home

Good Sunday evening to everyone.
It is SO good to be home and sleep in my own bed. I forgot what a comfortable home I have.
ANNA-so glad to hear from you at last. Glad you have an A/C unit to sleep by. It sounds like you have been busy. Also glad to hear your DH finally got what is due to him. Your government/business red tape sounds just like the US.
It was fun in Charleston, and Mt. Pleasant, S.C. The beach was nothing great, but DH had fun playing golf. I did a bit of damage with the credit card, buying end of the summer dresses, T shirts, etc. It may be the end of summer in S. C. but it is still going strong here in Fla. We did a bit of bike riding, not too much. One day we kayaked in 2 different places. Wow, my arms were sore the next day. One place was the Francis Marion swamp. We did see one aligator, but he was about 6 ft. away from us and kept his distance. We signed up for a trip, and had 4 other people with us that time. It was great to have a guide who was from the area and could tell about the old plantations, plant life, etc.
Ate ourselves silly. Also gained 6 lbs. The best fresh shrimp we had was at a little hole in the wall place on U.S. 17, called Buckshot's. We were the only white people in there, and oh, my the food was grand.
The best grits was at a place called Charleston Crab House, yum.
Only hit the downtown Charleston area once, as the other day it rained all day.
Did some laundry today, visited the grands, and took in the Bourne movie. It was DH's pick, lots of shooting, car chases, and the like. If I was a nail bitter, I'd have bitten them off to the wrists, but closed my eyes during some of it.
Off to flop on the couch.
Going to pull weeds in the early morning, and go back to working out.
I did print out the NFL football schedule for our team. Can you believe football starts in just a week? Yea!
Sara in Fla., catching up
