At Last My Arm is Complete Again

We now have the full compliment of household members in the house again. Avocado and her dad arrived home last night. She is taller, tanner, more assured and adorable than when she left. She was delighted to have curtains, delighted to see the cake I had made, delighted to have the dog sleep on her bed. And really delighted to have her cell phone again. This morning at 7:30 she was calling friends (who were actually answering at that hour. Greater love hath no friend than one who will pick up at 7:30). And by 10am she was on her way out the door, having already made dates for two sleepovers elsewhere--one tonight, as well as a movie date. So she won't be here this evening, and Spouse has a work dinner. So once again it's just Sarcasm Girl and me and the dog. Unless the dog gets an invite for a sleepover too.
