Over fall break we made it to MS to visit our friends. The girls had a big time seeing old friends. We stayed the night with a friend of mine who has a daughter Natalie's age. She learned how to Blue Tooth music from one phone to the other. I try to stay up on that stuff but they really got me this time. Natalie was surprised that the kids at her school didn't know about this. Guess we are a little behind those MS folks. Mike played in the Member Guest in MS. He and Doug are the Champions for the second time in three years. We didn't get to stay long and missed seeing several people. We are definately going to try to stay more than 48 hours next time.
We then headed to Fl to help out my Grandma. It was a few intense days of sorting through papers, going to see lawyers, financial planners, bank ,facility director, realtors, errands and cleaning up her house that won't sell (and is now not worth much of anything). I am taking over her affairs since she is unable. She is very grateful. I may have to move her to this area. Her situation is not good for her. We helped her with a few groceries and she just broke down right at the register.
It is hard to see her in this pain. She was good to me when I was growing up and it is the least I could do. It is difficult doing this from so far away. Well, I already handle affairs for five, what's one more. HA!We managed one day of fun while we were in FL. We went back to Disney's Magic Kingdom. We did not have a chance to see any other friends or family this time. We saw my sister for breakfast the last day and drove the whole way back the same day. (6 nights in a hotel was enough).
Yes, we all rode
space mountain.
Lebanon sure is treating us well. Monica tested into the gifted/talented program. She had her first nine weeks awards. She got the all A honor roll, a reading award, and the awesome attitude award. Natalie also received all A's. I wasn't sure since I have only seen her do home work about 3 days the whole 9 weeks. It is amazing what a change in schools can do for a kid.
