Return of Saturn

from June 21st~

Had hoped today would be a stay-at-home all day in our pajamas sort of day. It did not quite happen but still was decent enough. We're unpacked and laundry is mostly done. Tomorrow I have a lot of packages to ship. Julian has also asserted that he wants to go "somewhere". I think our trip spoiled him a little. He also asked if we were going to the airport this afternoon. The nearest I want to be to an airplane is starting the final season of LOST tonight!

Coming Home

from Wednesday, June 20th~

Julian is an old pro at flying

We are headed home today. Initially we thought we might end up staying a little longer, but after yesterday's discussion, we definitely are not. Not a great way to end a trip, but that's that. Jonathan came and met us for lunch before we headed to the airport. He somehow got the leg of a road-killed deer tangled up under his car. That provided some gross, but much needed comedy.

So now we're headed back home. It will probably be more than a year before we go back. Julian will be so much more mature. Grandpa will probably be gone. (He was not doing well today at all.) Things will be very changed.

Blessings

from Thursday, June 14th~

Mowing with Granpa

Mom and I continued the sorting process at the house. We did a whole closet and the linens and china cabinets. I don't think my grandmother ever thew out a card anyone gave or sent her! It's a very good reminder to me to be careful not to end up with the same habit. My "collector" nature comes to me through genes on both sides. That's a little scary!

In a little bit we'll pick up Jonathan from the airport. He drove Joy and the kids home to Texas. His plane had issues and had to land in Atlanta so he's delayed a bit. We're meeting dad for dinner while we wait.

Grandpa was pretty alert and with it today. He was mainly interested in getting back into bed for a nap, but we stalled him with some Coca Cola.

Back home, God gave us a little blessing. Jason got a very unexpected bonus at work. We've been really tight this month so the timing is amazing.

Made It

Monday, June 11~

We made it to Missouri! After a delay and some of the worst turbulence I've ever experiences, it felt like an accomplishment to walk out of the Springfield airport! We're spending the night in Bolivar with my mom, Joy and her kids. Felt a little like we were crashing a party, but the cousins are happy to see each other.

Grandpa Y is not nearly as clear, mentally, as he was in December. His reactions are much slower and he sleeps much of the day. Bridget, on the other hand, is still a spry old gal!
