alterinSo.. the trip is overwith kinda at this point. We're chilling in a hotel room near the french quarter. We stayed here in a single room for the last night and we fly back in 6 hours. I'm kinda screwed cause I was listening to my headphones last night to sleep cause.. these two in the bed next to me. INSANE! OMG they're like synchronized snorers. It's a constant hum one and then the other. They're still passed out and I wanna go exploring, but.. my phone's dead!
So overall it was a good trip. MS isn't as bad as I remember. It's a lot more green, and.. the hospitality thing is refreshing(although, I know what's really lurking beneath!). I was never really hurting for much to do. I saw katie again! It's kinda weird.. We were never that close when I lived here, and now for both trips, I've seen/hung out with her more than anyone really. Naomi is good, and she's pregnant again number two on the way! Somehow, i didn't get any pictures of either of them... oh well.
Our mom was doing well... My grandma was out visiting for a month.. Her last day was our second day here.. We wanted her to stay. Jim would have paid for an extension on her ticket, but she wanted to go home. April 21, 2008 she was hit by a motorcyclist on a Harley while in a marked crosswalk. She was in the ICU for 8 hours. April 22, 2008 she passed away. Except for moments, I'm doing very well. I feel like I should be more upset, but I'm more worried about my family than anything else. I don't believe in any of that afterlife bullshit, but.. she lived a great life. GIrl had 8 sons and daughters who mostly were successful and happy. She had a great many grandchildren and even a few great grandchildren. So that's that.
Kim... well maybe I'll mention that later. We did better. We're doing better. We'll do better.
