Adam has returned! After a seven hour drive home – well, his father drove, so that was nice – with a mattress and box spring tied to the top of his Ford Explorer, he was here, with a great big hug ready for his Momma (that would be me 
).
We hung out last night, each on our laptops, watching his shows – The Food Network, the Angels vs Twins- and it feels great to have him home. I made his favorite couscous salad and of course brownies – it’s not a homecoming here unless there’s brownies. He’s so happy to be back, and we’re glad he’s here.
Except he brought all of this stuff:
This is just some of it
And this stuff:
And here's some more
And my refrigerator, which has been mostly empty most of the time, now looks this way:
He loves green olives
Oh, and here’s Adam, back where he belongs!
He is an incredibly talented multi-tasker
So my nest is no longer empty, in the traditional way – but my son is an adult now, so in a sense, my nest of responsibility has diminished.
Now it’s time to conquer the world, young man! Go get what you want. You always have a home here with us.
(sorry this is short today – I have a lot of laundry to do, which you know makes me super happy!)
Enjoy your time together. He will have a place of his own soon enough. Handsome young man you have there.

What is it with kids and moving in plastic bags? lol! And I totally get your joy at doing his laundry – I miss doing for my son & daughter in law (who live in Brooklyn NY) like I do little things for my daughter and grandsons … so I do what I can every chance I get!

I know, I’ll never really understand my love of laundry, but that’s just the way it is…my kids are verrry lucky!
This blog cracked me up. You are quite funny and the pictures were great. You love them when they leave and you love them when they come home. Too bad when they come back they bring all their stuff.
You know it, Laurie.
It’s great that he has a place he can go and stay if he needs!

Yep, he’ll always have a place here. Whether he’ll always want to come back is the question.

Yes, someone does indeed! Odd, isn’t it?
Oh my same exact look in my house today–could be twins! Cannot even get to the washing machine, the piles are so high! Very funny.

Kiddo brought home everything and couldn’t remember what was clean and what was dirty…good times!
