So, My sister got on the plane Monday afternoon and flew away for 15 days to sunny Las Vegas, Nevada. Her annual pilgrimage with her college friend we affectionately call "Berta". Most of the rest of the world calls her Diane, which makes me think "we" are special. They have been inviting me the past few years, I would secretly lovvvveeee to go some year. Also secretly I am envious of my school friend Debbie that just got back from Eqypt. Yep... not even kidding. She got to drive a camel and see the pyramids and she now has a recipe of how to make a mummy. How cool is that, I ask you? Right now I am monatarily challenged with cataract surgery, braces and a car looming large in front of me so probably not gonna happen any time soon. Alsoooooooo this Monday, my daughter left for a week at church camp. I did not want to go to Liberty Lake with her but I secretly miss her like crazy. I also think I am sounding like Junie B. Jones right now, hmmmmmm. So, Bruce and Petey and Tess and Oscar and Prince and the bazillion birds all got to stay home. It's not so bad 'cause we have been having the most WICKED thunder, lightening and rain storms ever at home. I love to watch.
I am kinda feeling like I was left home alone on account of a daughter and a sister being gone. I only have one of each, too.
The not so good thing is that we had an Uncle die this week and there is a funeral coming up. THis is my Dad's brother and it was unexpected. My died 4 years ago, and sadly it was expected. Not sure which is better, if either. No sister or daughter to go along, a husband, and aunt and the California cousins. The other not so good thing that happened is one of the Mansfield cousins had a stroke yesterday and she will be in the hospital a few days. We won't get to see her at the funeral, but I guess she will be ok. There will be some Spokane cousins at the funeral too. Well, time is up, I gotta run. Ohhhh Hello? Is anybody there?
