I’m sorry I haven’t been posting. We’ve been planning to go on a trip soon and it suddenly got moved up a few days. That as kept me really busy trying to get things done in time. I did manage to get an ATC made for a swap I had scheduled for this morning. I decided since Earth Day had been this week I’d do a ‘Mother Nature’ card.

Posting will be spotty for the next couple of weeks. We leave on Sunday and will be stopping first in Nebraska to see what we can do to help there. My crazy relative with the hoarding issue is being relocated to TX. She isn’t real happy but there are no alternatives. One of the things that really annoys me about this is that I’ve been trying to sound the mental illness alarm for 30 years without any help. Of course the crazy person doesn’t think she is crazy and her husband found it better to ignore the problem than to deal with her wrath. That just allowed the problem to get bigger and now her entire world is falling apart. Why are people so afraid to get psychological help when they need it? Oh well, I lost my train of thought and went off on a rant.

What I meant to say is that after a stop in NE we will be heading to IL to help my son-in-law celebrate his college graduation. His life took some reality turns and he had to put school off in favor of a paycheck for several years. He found his way back and now he is graduating with honors and a great job all lined up and waiting for him. We are so happy for him and are really looking forward to sharing this milestone with him. By the time the trip is done half of May will have flown by. I’m not sure when I’ll be able to post or what I’ll have to share but I’ll try to check in once in a while.
