We decided we need a break from being stuck in the house so all seven of us plus a friend and her two kids are heading to Corpus Cristi tomorrow.  Should be fun.  Its in the 80’s there and the water is still warm.  I can’t wait to get on the road. 

Mom hasn’t gone anywhere except to the doctor or hospital for the last two years.  It will be a nice change for her.  My only fear is how 5 hours in a car is going to make her hurt.  Its not like we can take her out of the car to lay down every hour.  I’m nervous for her.

I’m already missing William too.  I would love for him to go, but Grannie is evil and hates him.  I don’t have much choice in the matter because it is just easier to let her have her way.  She’s an old woman, set in her ways.

He wants me to go with him out to his parents place.  They own some land on some lake in East Texas.  i can only imagine what Grannie will say.  She already thinks I’m a whore for "having lain" (her words, not mine) with a man who isnt my husband.  What the fuck ever.  My husband had lain with anything that would lie still so my one man isnt a big fucking deal.

Blah, whatever.  I didn’t come here to vent tonight.   I just wanted to tell you I was off to have some fun.  I’m going to bed now.  It will be a long day tomorrow and I still have to pack.

Nite y’all.

Y’all take care,

Mandy
