I survived the first week! Albeit, it was a short week, so I spent yesterday at the dentist and doing taxes for the family. Thank goodness for designated days off!

Well with Vix away for quite some time I am suffering some serious separation anxiety! I can confirm that she is enjoying her trip and so far all travel has been safe and relatively on time.
