Back in the Saddle Tomorrow

Once we all get together, plans ebb and flow like the tide. Becky was ill when they came and had to go to the clinic in Walgreens yesterday (a very convenient alternative to a physician's office). She's feeling better today, and Chris is as well. Becky and Ryan will be going back home today so Becky can rest tomorrow before starting the work week again. She'll be starting a new job the first of the year much closer to home. Right now she has an hour commute each way. Chris thought about driving back to Atlanta today, but since he's still not back up to speed will stay another night and rest up before his 6 1/2 hour drive.

We'll head back to Abilene tomorrow with a slight detour through Midlothian to drop off gifts from the Memphis/Atlanta/Mississippi crew. Mendy's coming with us to help pack and get the house ready to put on the market. Our neighbors have asked for "first dibs" on the house, so we'll see if that works out. It would really be a blessing to leave Abilene without worrying about if or when our house will sell!

So far we old folks are healthy, but will probably all get sick by the time we get back to Abilene. There's been a lot of coughing and sneezing around us all week.
