Quick Update

Well, it's been awhile so I thought I'd let everyone know what we've been up to.

Sunday March 9- Jody & I were able to go to the Nascar race at Atlanta Motor Speedway. We went with 10 or 12 other friends and had lots of fun. I took a few pictures, but not any good ones. I just wanted a good one of Jeff Gordon, but he's a little too fast.

Wednesday March 12- Jody & I had Alex's IEP meeting to discuss next year. That went great.
But when we left the meeting, Brett called to tell me my Grandmother died. So I spent the rest of Wed and most of Thurs making travel plans to attend the funeral.

Friday March 14- Brian, Brett & I flew to Tampa, rented a car and drove to Port Charlotte for the Visitation that night. Even though this was a sad time, it was good to see that whole side of my family again. This was my Jacksonville, dad's mom. I haven't seen a lot of my aunts & uncles since my Grandfather's funeral, when Alex was 6 months old.

Saturday March 15- Funeral & Food. Then travel back to Tampa to sleep for the night.

Sunday March 16- We are flying home at 11 am. I thought we'd never make it. Two MAJOR problems!!!
Brett & I are sooo sick throwing up every 30 minutes or so. After a long walk & several stops in several different restrooms we made it on the plane. We were still sick on the plane, but somehow managed not to ruin anyone else's day. Thank you Lord! Brian dropped me off at home about 3 that afternoon. I was so relieved to be home, to get my PJ's on and get in bed. I had been looking forward to seeing the kids, but I'd have to catch up with them when I felt better.

Tuesday March 18- Jody left at 5 am for Louisville KY.

So that brings us to today. Pretty uneventful day. Jody should be home tonight. He is driving home through pouring rain, wind & storms. I'm praying for his safety. I'll be glad to see him when he gets here.
