5 states in two days…
I got to be in 5 states in two days this week. I went on a road trip. Road trips are my favorite. The person that was with me thinks I went to help her out. Nope- it was ALL selfish! Kidding- but I really did have fun!
Barbra, someone I have known since age 4, came out to Utah to buy a car. She thought it was smart to drive home alone. I on the other hand was jealous of the road trip, and a little worried she may need someone to go to the pharmacy for her in the morning, so I volunteered to go. BJ didn’t bat an eye. My amazing hubby got online to find me a flight home. So Sunday we left.
There were some funny moments. Moments in which we laughed like we haven’t laughed in a LONG time (she kept asking “How old are you???”), and moments in which I was the only one laughing, she was in too much pain to laugh. And if you know her- you’ll have to ask her what the pain was from. I’m keeping that info tucked away until I need to blackmail her!
I missed the boys, worried about whether or not they would get to school on time, worried about whether they would get their homework done, and worried that BJ would never let me leave again. But BJ did a great job. They got to school on time, their homework was done, and they knew their spelling words when I got back. All was well.
So, I guess what I am saying is- thanks for the trip Barb! I had a TON of fun!!!

Yes, we laughed until we were blue. It seemed however that Jennifer did more laughing than I did, because she always laughs at me. Such love.
As for the pharmacy stuff, I have no idea what she’s talking about. I mean, she’s the one with a habit, the only one I have is my nun uniform.
I really don’t know how I would have survived that drive by myself. Tulsa, the amazing metropolis it is, it not a stone’s throw from SLC. It is more like in another universe. However, the scariest times were had in Wyoming and dealing with truck drivers with nothing on from the waist down.
Thanks Jennifer. I feel much better now. All healed up from your abuse. = ) Big kisses!
