and then there were two

I kind of undecorated tonight. Everything is down, just not totally put away yet.
We took Sam and Grace back to the city yesterday. Jude graciously let us use her place for one last visit with Anne and Will before they have to leave for Ontario. Allison came over too, we ordered Chinese and had a very good visit. Anne spent quite a bit of time trying how to figure out how to distribute all her things among her luggage so she doesn't have to pay an overweight fee. Pretty hard to do when you are taking a sewing machine back.
I had to be back at work today so we slept at Jude's and got up early to drive back. Geoff goes back tomorrow. So it is back to old routines for some of us and new ones for others; Sam started his co-op job today, Grace starts her clinical tomorrow. Christmas seemed like a whirlwind.
