Someone's brought home the sniffles...

I could not sleep last night...I cleaned out my desk drawers, I put fresh sheets on Molly's bed for her return, I even dismantled a computer and put it back together in another room...

I watched the hours tick by, knowing I wouldn't be able to sleep in...I had to pick up Molly in the morning...2 am...3 am...4am...and then I must have fallen asleep, because I saw that it was suddenly 8 am...

I was tired but pleasantly surprised that my car was clean and full of gas... {I did not leave it that way}. And there was a gift even more precious than gasoline...

There were three cups...one for him and two for me...the iced coffee was supposed to be for the drive...I couldn't wait, and the donut was mine also. There are those moments when caffeine and sugar trumps jewelry...those moments are rare but they do happen.

Other than forgetting my I-Pass {and having to wait in line to pay tolls}, the drive was smooth and uneventful. While waiting for the MollDoll to get her things together I noticed a dorm window that screamed to be photographed...

Molly jumped in the car with explicit instructions...NO PHOTOGRAPHS!!

{Suddenly she's a celebrity?!..nope, her nose is red stuffy...the dreaded dorm germs again.} She allowed me only one photographic location, so I parked between the Grotto and the Dome and did what I could...

And now my little chick is home {along with her red nose}...and her "stuff" which will soon grow exponentially...what you see below is only the beginning. I promise you another room pic next week.
