It's Been A Long Time........

But I'm Back!!!!!!!


Hello all! I am finally home and settled from my vacation. I wanted to write while I was gone but I never really got a chance to. So here I am to update you on my "happenings".

When we got there it was so nice to see our family. Since "The Husband" and I are from the same place it is so much easier to go and visit our family. Anyway, "The child" was so excited that I think she forgot that we were her parents. The only time she was with us was if her "maw maws" or her "paw paws" were gone somewhere. But I guess that extra time was good for us. "The Husband" got to see some of his old friends from out there and actually went out with them. Big surprise! (That was not sarcasm. He really doesn't go out as much as the typical male his age.) All I did was relax and spend time with family. I only got to see one of my good friends from there. She cooked for us one night and it was just really good to see her. The few other people that I know from there have moved away. There is one other person that I would like to have got in touch with; but, I haven't seen or heard from here in so long that I wouldn't know how to get in touch with her.

While we were out there "The Husband" and I went to a wedding. One of his friends got married. The wedding was beautiful!! Since I didn't know anybody there I would wind up standing in the corner by myself while "The Husband" went off to talk to somebody that he knew. I would just stand there and hope that he didn't take that long. We eventually left and to be honest with you I was relieved. I felt really out of place and I got tired of standing in the corner by myself.

That little vacation was needed. I felt very refreshed by the time we got back home. The road trip was long but well worth it. When we got back I slept for a long time. Unfortunately "The Child" got sick somewhere between our last day out there and the trip home. When we got back I had to take her to the doctor to find out what exactly was wrong with her. Well, I found out that she had another ear infection (both ears), her throat was infected, and she had pink eye. I figured that she might have pink eye but I really did not expect the other two. Needless to say I could not take her back to school so she is sitting home with me.

Well, it is time for me to go. "The Child" is up and she is HUNGRY! Talk to you later.
