Love you guys!! I love that if I move you guys are right where I left you no matter what. The one thing that never changes. I love it. Had to say good bye to my church today. It was very sad. Almost 4 years ago I sent them an email asking them some very pointed question about acceptance and they treated people that did things that may not be considered very Christian and their answers were just what I wanted to hear and I have been attending ever since and they have become my family and a home away from home. Amazingmy enough my husband even came with us, simply because I asked him too, which in my world is a HUGE deal. It was a great night. Tomorrow we are having a farewell BBQ for our last weekend here with some of our closest friends. It should be fun but it will be sad. I love my friends and family and am going to miss them so much but am so glad that they love me and I have them to miss. This whole process has sucked but there have been a lot of great things I have seen in the whole thing. I have seen how much I adore so many of my friends. I have seen how many of my friends I really don't care about and are just people I know, and I'm good with that. I am slowly learning better communication with my husband. Hopefully we don't kill each other in the process. Still need to get some xanax though. I am definitely learning to pick up after myself a little bit so that I don't drive my mother too crazy, only a little bit.
So, that is where I am at today. I haven't scrapped in weeks and I miss it horribly, but I am not allowed to scrap until we are on the road and all of my Continuing Education is completed for my x-ray certification. Then I can do some scrapping and I am sure I will do a lot of it. Maybe I can get DH to do some of the CE's. A girl can hope. We were working on our game plan today. We are hoping to maybe take a ferry across Lake Michigan. We'd go from Milwaukee to Muskeegee. It looks really fun. Plus it takes a chunk of driving off. It costs a bit more but less driving and no tolls. That seems worth it to me. We are going to hit the Nez Perce Tribe Reservation, Yellowstone Park, Mt. Rushmore, Jackson, MI, Cleveland, OH, Maybe PA, Maybe WV, Fayetteville, NC and mYrtle Beach and then end up back in Fayetteville to stay. Wow!! I am rambly rambly tonight. Since I am on a roll I think I'll throw in some personal before I head off to bed.
Chris - Sorry your back hurts. That really stinks. I also hope the rain lets up and the boys have a dry concert. Are they seeing anything good? I am still thinking you need to join me and Linda at the beach. I think you should grab Caitlin and head down. You two could share a room with me and my kids. Derek won't be there and my room will already be covered so you'd just have to show up. It would totally be awesome.
Laurie - So, what is up with the restore? Why do you need to do that? Are they corrupted or on something or what is going on with them? Sounds like a royal pain whatever is going on with them. Sorry your day didn't go as planned. I hope it turned out okay anyway.
Sandra - Big squeezy, eye-poppy HUGS!! :hug: I hope everything works itself out somehow with your marriage whatever is going on. I hope you had a good time with your mom and sister.
LindaS - It is great seeing you around again. We've missed seeing you. How fun to see your nephew on such a winning team. I used to love flipping in gymnastics and then in diving, I can only imagine how much Sydney loves it. Just please don't ever cave and get her a trampoline. I hope you got some good you time in...and some grocery shopping done. I cheated and let my mom do my shopping today. LOL
Trudy - Are you getting some of this sunshine we are getting down here? I sure hope we are sharing some of this with you, if not please take some it. I hate to complain, but we may have a little much. I'm sweating down here. Enjoy your beach time.
Kayleigh - :wave: Hey lady!! Haven't seen you around here in forever. It has definitely been a long time. I hope life has been good for you. Didn't you move or something and not have internet and then you were gone. I remember something like that. Well, glad to see you are back and I hope life is good and hope to see you around more.
LindaW - The waterpark sounds like a blast. That stinks about Cranky Pants Savannah. Don't you just hate that. They take a nap every other day except the day you want them to have the most fun and they want to be Miss Cranky Pants. Silly girl. Yay for the free passes. How fun. Oh, guess what...I see you in a month. Whoohoo!! I haven't made my reservations yet. I was going to but they are unchangeable reservations and I may have to change the days so I haven't made them yet. It will either be Sat-Weds or Sun-Thurs. Either way I am going. Just don't have the days solidified yet. It will just depend on timing is all. I'll keep you posted.
Okay, I think I got everyone from this weekend so far. I have to go do some stuff and I am off to bed. Love you guys. You are all the bestest!!
