OK, so I don't exactly have this whole blogging thing down to a science...it's been a little over 11 months since my initial post, it seemed like such a great idea at the time.
Now, I stand by that initial post! And quite frankly that niece of mine has probably been the saving grace of my sanity the past 11 months! Dad's diagnosis with brain cancer and the months of caring for him (with a lot of help from family....especially Amy and Aunt Elaine), then his death in
February.....and then just when I thought I could take that long deep breath and return to some kind of normalcy, the bottom falls out - healthwise!
So, maybe 'normal', is overrated - but then, I couldn't tell you because I'm not even sure that the whole concept of normal exists in my little corner of the world!!!
Figuring all of this out is a real adventure - not one I would have willingly signed up for....but I've got it, and you know me - once the gauntlet has been thrown down, 'let the games begin'!
So here I am, typing this, after midnight and I'm going to be on an airplane on my way to Texas in seven hours. Am I done packing - heck no.....but at least I'm started, and really everything is pretty much under control - or at least as under control as it can be in the middle of the flippin' flappin' night! Talked to Tabitha a while ago and told her the only thing I knew for sure about this trip right now was, I'm taking a nap after I get there tomorrow afternoon - oops, that would be THIS afternoon!!!! I can hardly wait to cool my heels at Midway airport for more than three hours in a few hours, "later" this morning...since when is 0700 'later' in the morning!?!?!?!
Oh well....tick-toc, if I'm not going to pack anymore, I need to try and get a little snore in, before the alarm goes off at 0407...don't ask me why I picked that time, I don't have a clue!
