Bringing It On Home
2009-Jan-07, Wednesday 02:54 pmSo! Slight change of plans... See, we thought that the weather would be too rough for Dad to come in, and they were really really rough, but they went ahead and took them in. We got a call about an hour ago, he said he was around Slidel, but there was a huge accident so he wasn't certain how long he'd be. So, the plan now is that he'll come in and we'll pack everything up but what we need tonight, and we'll be heading out around 3 or 4 in the morning.
The past couple of days have been so full of activity. Just today, we went to my bank and closed out my accuont (no Chase banks in Harrison :( Sad panda), went to the drug store and picked up my last batch of pills here, paid half of a bill that we owe, and then I went to Edward Jones and got the paperwork to roll my current 401k funds into an IRA done.
Oh, and those wonderful nails I got on the 26th of December for Reiko's wedding? They're all gone. A few days ago 2 of them just popped out (without provokation!), and slowly all the others have either been catching and pulling or breaking. So today, Mom and I got some stuff that you soak the nail in, and it removes it.....it was not fun, because in the end, you either are rubbing your fingers in there for about 20 minutes to get it off, or you rub it for 10 and pull it the rest of the way. And afterwards, all my skin and fingers and nails looked terrible!
I did managed to take pictures of some trees on Bayou Blue road. There are these beautiful oak trees that hang over the bayou next to a car wash. I stopped and took a bunch of pictures.
le tired...I figured while we were taking a break I'd just pop in and update but...gosh I'm tired. And we're going to be packing and doing all the last minute things soon. I'm so eager to just be up there so I can crash and not have to worry about all this. Traveling is not for me. I love exploring and seeing new things but it wears me down eventually (and besides, there's little new things in Houma >..>).
I guess I'll go ahead and sign off now. Miles to go before I sleep and all that. Later, Sunshines!
Your Word is "Fearless" |
![]() You see life as your one chance to experience everything, and you just go for it! You believe the biggest risk is being afraid and missing out on something amazing. Sometimes your fearlessness means you're daring. You enjoy risky activities. And sometimes your fearlessness means you're courageous. You're brave enough to do the right thing, even when it's scary. |
