Four in the car

We are heading back to Oklahoma for a super quick visit tomorrow. I'm currently teaching summer school for Southwest so I need to be back in time for my class Tuesday night. I'm so thankful that Mike got a bit of time off; he's going to be able to make this trip with us. It's pretty rare for Mike to be able to go to Wynnewood with us, exceptions being Christmas and Thanksgiving. So this will be a special treat.

Some of you know that my dad's health has been poor for the past couple of months. He's still not doing well. We have recently found out that his kidneys aren't functioning properly, a result of the diabetes that he's been dealing with for the past fifteen years or so. He's also extremely anemic, which is leading to other issues as well. I'm hoping to get a better idea of his condition while I'm home. He's pretty good at making things sound better than they are. He doesn't ever want to worry me.

So, we'll leave tomorrow and will come on back to Bartlett on Tuesday.

Until then...

You guys have a safe trip. I know your dad will be glad to see you all! I hope sometime when you can come down we can get together!

Hope your dad is doing better! I'm sure it was a blessing to him to see you and the boys.

BTW, I got your FB message and I'm at www.thereismoretomylife.blogspot.com Hope you visit again soon. :)

Hi, Andrea!
I found your blog as a result of a rather oddball Google search: I wanted to come up with some GOOD f-words to amuse a friend of mine. Your blog was the first result and after reading several etries I'm no longer interested in entertaining my friend. Your blog is engaging, touching, very well-written, and covers some subjects very close to my heart.

I'm going follow Good "F" Words from now on. Here's another F word for you: FABULOUS!

Have a wonderful Friday!!!

a new friend,

Marge

Good F words

Hey! Not all F words are bad. The best words in the world are family, fun, food, and fabulous! I'm challenging myself to expand my own appreciation of the fabulous F words out there. I'm starting a list of words that I'll eventually write about. Let me know if you think of another fun one.



Family ~ Father ~ Fast ~ Fanatic ~ Fanciest ~ Festive ~ Fanciful ~ Freedom ~ Friday ~ Flower ~ Flagrant ~ Fixable ~ Forceful ~ Forbidden ~ Foray ~ Foppish ~ Fledgling ~ Frappacino ... hmmm... maybe ?
