Back in Florida
Back in Florida again. The flight was a little rough as it has stormed here today and had tornado watches. Angela picked me up at the airport. When I got home I was too tired to go to the grocery store. I didn't have a protective aunt making sure I ate my tomatoes and cottage cheese and cucumbers. But, my neighbor called me and invited me for a bowl of soup. My other choice was the nuts Vickie packed as a snack. The soup was great and we had a chance to catch up. I will save my snack for work for lunch. Then I'll go to the grocery store. Please pray for Michelle and her family. Her dad has serious althzeimers and is a great concern to her. I didn't want to leave yet, I wanted to be there for my family, but I am glad I got to go. Please keep Vickie and family in your prayers as she still has much to deal with. \
As far as my arm goes, no such luck. It blistered and is peeling and feels a little rough. It is undergoing a second peeling (like a bad sunburn). Just have to watch it for infection. I have lost my taste for oatmeal!
It was good to see some of my wonderful aunts and uncles from Hope and LA, even under such circumstances. I sure do miss seeing them.
A special thanks to LJ, Mom and Re....they pulled off a few miracle meals. Yummm. And lets not forget Hannah and the Bowlin boys. They were great with the kids. And Randal was always handy with a towell when an entire glass got knocked over...very calmly (3 times)!. You are a good guy bro! Katie, Shanna, Danielle and Savannah pulled through with kid care. It was great seeing Jimbo and Audra. They will be in Nawlins way too soon. I know I have forgotten someone. Kevin, Gabby, Wendy....and assorted helpers. It takes a village!!! Thanks again Mom, and Vickie, you are close to my heart and prayers. Love to all. I know this is just rambling, but it is from the heart.
Love to all
If you want to see some greatpictures go to RyMoHannah. She has some awesome shots.

My heart and prayers continue to be with Vickie and her family and all of you. I know that Vickie really appreciates you, too. I'll be praying for you and your arm. And, I'm not sure who Michelle is (are we related? LOL...forgive me) but I'll pray for her as well... I know dealing with alzheimers can be rough!
Thanks for all your support! I love you!
"Nawlins"...I believe that is somewhere way south of LA. Right? B-T-W, we gotta stop meeting like that!! ~hh
Glad that you are back home safe and sound. I hope htat your burn heals in double time!
I am glad that you got to be with you family!!!
Thanks for the faith - my mom is home as we speak! Tired but home!!!!

Actually, that didn't seem like rambling to me!! It was a fine report and recap! It was sweet!! I hate that your arm is not cooperating.
Praying for Michelle.
