The Last Supper

We just finished our last Sunday afternoon lunch with Reid's grandmother, "Maw Maw". It has become such a fun time for me to visit her and such, and we usually eat way too much food and pass out on the couch, a tradition Reid says has been followed since he was a small child. We will be going to Ohio to visit Reid's roomate and ride back with Aunt Susan, and then we have a wedding in Fredericksburg, so when we get back, we will only have about 5 days before it is time to head to the DFDub and fly to D. C.

I just wonder if we will ever get packed. Reid and I have made this observation that no matter what the occasion- decorating for a wedding, cleaning before company comes, etc. That whatever amount of time you alot yourself, that is how long it will take. If you think it will take all day, then it will. And this theory has proven true, although at first I thought it was akin to Reid's saying "Pressure makes diamonds". Well, I assume we will get it all together, and this not knowing what to expect is quite exciting!

  1. It's called Parkinson's Law, and it's very well known in economic circles as being inviovable with humans. However much time, resources, money, etc, is alloted to a task or individual, that's how much or long it will take to complete. :-)

    Glad I got to see ya'll in DFW before you left!

  2. I can verify that Reid's tradition of eating too much and passing out on Maw Maw's couch is right on the money! Love you both...and are praying for you daily! Have a great experience but be careful!
