Home- we are headed home today. It has been a week of family and love, with Hawaii as the beautiful backdrop. I have rejoiced in every day, and I am well aware of the good fortune that brought me here. With the boys grown and independent, we are very rarely all together. This trip was a mother's happiest dream. Before I left, I made a playlist of Hawaiian holiday music. Steve scrunched his face when he watched me hula to a slack key Silent Night, claiming it was not the holiday season yet. Ah, but it is. My holiday is anytime my family is with me.
This year it will be a bit more difficult to decorate, since I have shifted the location of all my furniture, to allow the adoption of Mom and Dad's stuff. There (honestly) is not one place to sit in the living room, except the piano bench. But the entertainment cabinet I brought from Detroit looks swell. Steve worries a little about me, but he is being a good sport. His suggestion, that I do not decorate due to the chaos, has fallen upon deaf ears. I would decorate him, if he would stand still. After the holidays, I will get a couch. And I had better watch some HGTV in that room to make some sense of my frenzy.

I love how Pat and Matt's gals look like they could be your nieces. I am surrounded by 30 plastic boxes of christmas junk...ordering the pizza in an hour and away we will go. My last Christmas "at home" with my Senior girl. How in the heck did THAT happen? Have fun.
Steve gaes quite gracefully....hahahaha. IF mentioning my name (Kit McGuire)to Steve he will draw a total blank. When he started at CKLW I was at WNLD in Southfield. After all these years in radio I'm now semi-retired and wishing I was doing what Steve does or find a solid connection in order to syndicate. In central Arizona with the worlds worst bowling lanes and gold courses the animals won't bother messing on. All my best to you and Steve! Happy holidays!
