Just wanted to update my good friends here on my adventures here in Texas.
The last 7 months have been an amazing adventure for me.
I have gotten to spend some priceless time with my 87 year old Mom. She is quite an amazing person.
I have enjoyed almost a 100 years of stories from her and my aunt who is 98.
It has been an amazing journey that I will cherish all my life.
A month or so ago. we decided to go look at a few assisted living facilities just to see what all the talk was about. We would tour a different property each Saturday. We would go and have lunch and they would treat her like a queen and try to win her over. This past weekend, we toured a facility that she fell in love with. (They also sent a pie home with her which I think did the trick) She loves her pie.
She has made a decision to move. So......I am making a decision to move also. No.....not with her. I will be coming home after 9 months of taking care of her. Did you guys know that it gets WAY hot here.
I want to thank so many of you for keeping me entertained and supporting me in SO many ways while I have been here and so very far away from my family and friends. This has been my lifeline to home for a long time now.
JMC........There just aren't words to let you know how much you mean to me. You are a prince of man.
To my husband who held down the fort and made it possible for me to have this precious time with my Mom. Well, I will never be able to fully repay that kind and thoughtful act but I will spend a good portion of the rest of my life trying. I am soooooooooo very lucky to have you.
I can't wait till the picnic to see all of you and thank you in person.
Please keep us in your prayers as we wind things up here and get her settled into a fun new adventure for her. :woo hoo: :woo hoo: :woo hoo: :woo hoo:
