Tonight is our last night in sunny South Florida. It has been amazing. Much needed rest and time away from work, home and family drama (for the most part.).

On our way out of town JM鈥檚 sister called to tell him that niece was being released from jail that day and was going to put up a tent "on the edge" of our property. This after we had told her weeks ago that we were not willing to have her stay with us. But she was hell bent on getting her out that day. JM and SIL went back and forth a few times and when she told him she was "praying for his soul" because he "went back on [his] word" I went off on her. Told her she was not to call or text JM or me again until we were home and can talk face to face. Then she had our son message that she found out the original paperwork (that she submitted without our permission) had our address wrong and they were able to get the address changed. 馃檮

So if this dim bint had just done what we said to begin with she鈥檇 have been out 3 weeks ago.


Okay, that鈥檚 all the bad. Now for the good.

We had a really enjoyable trip down here. The conference was wonderful and I learned some great information. The award ceremony Wednesday night was like a dream. I didn鈥檛 really prepare a speech, just spoke from my heart about my dad. How every day I try to be the kind of nurse that he was . And on a whim, I asked the presenter if it would be okay for me to sing. I sang one verse of Amazing Grace. It was like Daddy was there in the audience. Just magical.

The beach is gorgeous. White sand, crystal blue-green water. I haven鈥檛 get comfortable in a bathing suit for years, but after losing 40 lbs I bought 2 really cute ones and felt beautiful.

We are heading home tomorrow. I feel rested and ready to get back to life. My mom has just been diagnosed with breast cancer鈥攕he had the biopsy on the day we were traveling and got the results on Thursday. She has a really plucky attitude and is ready to fight. And my sibs and I are ready to battle with her.
