Bucket ListDon and me are doing fine.....it has been a busy month. We have been away for a few days and am enjoying some respite
time from work, and just life in general. I am unable to load pictures right now but will when we get home very soon.
I suppose everyone has a bucket list of sorts. There was one thing that I wanted to accomplish on this trip
that I never got to do with Mark and that was introduce one of my most favorite people in the world to John. Mission
accomplished. John was able to meet and spend a little bit of time in between his Daddy duties with my friend, Marcus
Engel and his lovely wife, Marvelyene. It was a very special meeting for me.
Lots of thoughts, lots of things
to put here but I am going to wait until I get home. Yet, one small thing: I am not a really good airline
passenger. Typically I have to sedate myself to get on a plane but this time I could not. Don and me agreed to
meet John and Tabby in Florida and together we took three little boys on the plane from St. Louis to Orlando. No drugs
for Granny!!!! I had to tough it out. I must say at Lambert I was missing my sedation. We had a little bit
of a wait before we got on the plane and sat at the gate by the windows watching the jets take off. Something kept flying
around right in front of us outside and it wasn't a plane.
It was a huge dragonfly....absolutely huge. I
imagine a dragonfly would have to be big to withstand the jets....but there it was. My first dragonfly of the summer
that I saw by myself......telling me that things would be ok, and enjoy the time with the boys.
Thanks, Markie.
I needed you right then and I kept thinking of that "sign" throughout the flight.
