Life on the Other Side of the World

You have been reading about the life of Gammy or Me-Me ( How did Luke know it is all about Judy? ) while in Germany visiting Chris, Mindy, Luke and Will. If you haven't noticed, Steve has been missing in all the pictures. Are there marital issues,... won't his parole officer let him leave the country, ... what could it be?
Well, here's the well kept secret. Steve has had to stay close to the bathroom for 3 weeks. Wait... before you panic, he does not have some exotic intestinal virus. Actually, Steve and Judy have talked about remodeling the bathroom for several months due to a leak that caused some flooring issues. Steve's job, while Judy gallivants all over Europe, is to paint, tile, and replace anything else that gets in his way. All was going great until the first day....and all the problems of an older home that were hidden were brought to light. Finally last week, just as our precious Will was born, Gu-Ka caught the flu and was knocked down for a few days. Knowing the projects completion came before his health, Steve persevered. Tuesday if all goes according to plan ( yeah, like that will happen! ) he will put the vanity, sink, and toilet back in. Then Wednesday becomes last minute clean-up and the bathroom will be completed.
Thursday, whether the work is done or not, I fly to Germany to finally meet my newest grandson and further spoil Luke. I can hardly wait. I got my International Drivers License today so I can't wait to try the Autobahn. As you can tell I am getting excited now after all these weeks of waiting.
