Home and almost settled.

Ashley just woke briefly and offered me her paci. So damn cute!

Can’t remember html so triple dots shall separate paragraphs. I know their name but I have no brain to remember.

Got home 2 nights ago. Flights were good. Ash was quite loud (she woke up Tuesday having learned how to do, as mum called it, ‘canned laughter’) but slept pretty good. I had 3.5 hours sleep Monday night but somehow arrived in LA feeling refreshed and rested. We had to ZOOM through LAX, an hour to get through customs, collect bags, walk SO MUCH, get through security. We got to the plane as people were boarding, 10 minutes before scheduled takeoff.

Wednesday morning Ash woke me up at 2am. She went back to sleep at 4:30, but I couldn’t. I didn’t get much unpacking and cleaning done that day, which was a pity because Lisa and Matt were here to re-bond with Ashley. I did mop the lounge room wood floor multiple times because Jake dropped a bottle of V8 juice (acai mixed berry, deep deep red coloured juice) and cleaned it up poorly. He slept more than me but was worse off in the brain.

Everyone keeps complimenting my accent. Even cable customer service dude did. (Turned on the tv to get a “your cable service has been disconnected” message. Thankfully a quick easy fix because it was a loading glitch or something)

Slept pretty good last night but still don’t feel fully human yet. Ash and I have unpacked all the bags which is wonderful. We also repacked all the random junk back into the suitcases for storage. We got a visit from Mel and Kerry and Ash showed off her walking skills. She hugged Kerry goodbye which was good, yesterday she seemed to not remember her.

Tomorrow night is game night. I couldn’t be bothered baking treats so I brought mint slices and timtams over from aus. It is really difficult not opening the packets right now.

You’re stronger than I would be, not opening packs of biccies!!

It amuses me a bit that you mention Tim Tams, since I just woke from a dream about eating them. (My brain is silly.) I’m glad you’re recovering from the flight okay. Can you get a video of Ashley’s “canned laughter”? 😀

I bet the passengers on the plane laughed when Ashley did her canned laughter. She is so adorably cute. I hope you feel human soon. *giant hugs*
