Family is so important
Just saw a quote on the twitter page called InspirationDay that really makes a lot of sense right now.
“We only have ‘Now’ .. Tomorrow is never here, but what we do today affects our tomorrow”
I had dinner with my cousin and her family tonight. Her famous green chili stood up to it’s name. It was wonderful! I even got 2 hugs and a kiss from shy little Emily, Tina’s 3 year old daughter. I guess since being back here in Colorado, I never realized how much I missed my family and how so many years have gone by without any communication. Although there were reasons for that that are better not discussed here, I’m glad those reasons are no longer valid. To have such support here it’s hard to reason why I moved away in the first place where I didn’t know anyone.
It boggles my mind that I’ve been away 5 years. In such a short span of time, I have forgotten how to get around a town that I used to know like the back of my hand, or how to get to other towns I used to pass for a full year driving two and from college.
I went shopping for the odds and ends that I forgot in Georgia. Molly stayed with my Mother and Grandmother tonight while I went to Tina’s. This is the first time she’s stayed with someone else for an extended amount of time and she did great. Her potty training continues to go well. She now scratches at the back patio door when she wants out. I’m so proud of her. Seems like a lot of habits that I’d rather her not have disappeared when she got to Colorado.
I installed a wireless router for Mom today so I could have internet without stealing the neighbors. The neighbors wireless went in and out so much and most of the time I would have to sit outside to get any sort of connection at all. Now that Mom has wireless I’m getting full bars even down in the basement.
Off to do some thinking now … or sleeping, or both.
