Saturday road trip

I went to Savannah with 2 of my closest friends and the rain did not dampen our trip. We refused to let that happen. We went shopping and had a wonderful dinner in which we sit in Applebee's and laughed, laughed and laughed some more. As we sit in the resturant the rain fell and we waited for the rain to let up so that we could make a mad dash to Yukon. As we were leaving, the hot sign was on at Krispy Kreme and we went in and got donuts while they were hot. We didn't eat a donut until we were nearly home but they were still good.
It was good to get out of town for a few hours and just let everything go. I left my phone in my truck, no calls while I was shopping. And it felt really good. Thanks Pam-a-la and Tiff for the fun day away and the laughs...YEA we laughed and then laughed some more. We will be laughing for some time about this road trip.
The rain was really bad here last night and there were times that we drove only 30 to 40 mph but we were in no hurry to get home. When I got home, we had already had over 4 inches of rain. Keep in mind, I left my house around 1 pm and it is a 2 hour drive to Savannah. I got home at 9 pm and the puppies were running around barking and whinning. My Daddy told me this morning that that weather was awful here yesterday. Thunder, lightening, hail...and then just a down pour of rain. But everyone is okay and the puppies have slept all day and will not get too far from me. Imagine that? I hope that the rain dries up soon. My back yard looks like a pond, but we needed the rain like so many others. Hopefully you all will get some rain soon.
Momma is doing okay...confused alot but okay. Daddy seems to be feeling better this weekend and I have been trying to keep him off of the lawn mower, but he loves to keep his lawn mowed and the yards looking nice.
Take care and hope that everyone has a great week. Peace, love and happiness!!!!!!!!

Daily Grind

Okay, let me apologize for taking so long to post. This has been a month that has been unreal.

Momma seems to be worse by the day. She calls my cellphone and will leave so many mesages while I'm at work. She has my work number but will call me at work. I guess that when she worked that it was a "no-no" to call someone on the job unless it was an emergency. She tells me that she does not want to bother me at work. And I reassure her that she can call me. Daddy is not doing great with his COPD. But he has a sharp mind and that is a blessing.

Work is work. It has it changelles but everything is going well.

We still have not heard from the grandbabies since January 20 and I try not to dwell on it too much but we miss them so much. I have no idea how they are doing but I trust that God is taking care of them and keeping them out of harms way. One day, and hopefully soon, we will see them. Life has a way of kicking you in the gut and keeping you down when it happens. It is hard not to think of them, especially Noah, when it is quiet at home. I can hear him say, "bye, c ya, later". I can hear him call Lulu but he called her "Chubba". And I know the one thing that I miss the most and seeing his sweet face when I came into the back door and him calling his Papa and grabbing his leg, hugging him. Sweet, sweet Noah. And believe me when I say, a Hershey's kiss is not the same without him. He and his Papa would eat "2" every night. That is what he called a kiss..he wanted to have 2 and his Papa to have 2. There has been a bag in the refrigerator since January. Not eaten, sitting in his spot so that he could go and get him and Papa "2". My heart is broken but in reality there is not much that I nor no one else can do. But that does not stop my heart from breaking....I will be okay and it will get better with time or that is what they say but you can't prove it by me.

Take care my friends. And hopefully I will be online again this weekend. Love, peace and happiness.....
