Apologies...

My dearest readers; let me begin by apologizing for not having a post written last week.  Not that it's an excuse but I am still on vacation and I honestly lost track of what day it was (even though my parents and I went to church last Sunday AM, by the time evening rolled around I forgot to write) and it didn't even hit me until Mom told me on Monday morning that she logged on and there was nothing new for her to read....  That being said, this post is going to be on the short side since I have to be up pretty early in the AM to catch a flight.  I procrastinated in packing today so I honestly just finished and I hear my parent's coo-coo clock chiming midnight (so technically this post is being hastily written very early Monday AM).

I really did have a lovely vacation (except for when the plague struck but more on that in a moment).  Of course, I wish that I would have had the opportunity to spend more time with some of my family members or gotten in touch with old friends, alas, life's hustle and bustle kept that from happening.  I know that I could've made more of an effort but I enjoyed the times I had and I have the opportunity to hang onto those memories as I head back to my apartment and I truly hope that I am not taking the plague back too...  As you may or may not remember, right before I headed here I went to the doctor and was placed on antibiotics.  Now as I'm leaving, the stomach bug (a.k.a. "the plague") has struck several family members and I pray it doesn't hit me at 30,000 feet...

Maybe in an effort to help keep that at bay, I should stop typing for tonight since I have my travel day tomorrow wich will start very early (and I already don't handle "goodbyes" well...). If I get the opportunity, I may write more tomorrow or later in the week since I still have another week until I go back to work.  May you have a wonderful week my dear readers!
