I've been away in Vietnam recently so have scheduled a couple of the recent MIM posts and missed out altogether on last week's linky party. I'm glad to be back home and it's taken me all week to get back into the swing of things and feel rested, LOL. Still have sore knees and one of my ankles is not wonderful. I had a fall after getting into a boat and climbed too many stairs too. Hopefully they will settle down soon, have been rubbing some "Deep Heat" ointment into them and I think it's helping a little bit.
Our son came home today and has had to leave his new bride in Vietnam while they wait out her Visa application. It is going to take about 9 months. It's crazy when we have so many illegal entrants coming in all the time and legitimate people are made to wait. This is a long time to be parted when you've only been married a short time!!! He is now planning to go back before Christmas - he is nearly finished a second apprenticeship which means he will add car mechanic to his already gained motorbike mechanics certificate.
