Hello campers!
Well we are truly the black sheep of my dads side of the family now. Like I said in the last blog, My uncle died. He had a massive heart attack after eating lunch with his wife. I guess he ate lunch with Dolly, then paid the check then collapsed right in the doorway to leave. Dead before he hit the floor one of the paramedic's told Dolly. He died Wednesday, Sept 15, and that Friday he was waked and then on Monday he was buried. Well it appears EVERYONE in dad's family showed up for the wake and burial including my cousins down in Florida! So we are now official black sheep of his family, but we've been that forever and why change now. My dad didn't like his brother anyway and we just didn't have the money to send him up there. SO what to do? He apparently isn't too concerned about it but I think he's getting a little guarded.
Our trip is one week away officially and we CANNOT wait! My aunt Barb is bubbling OVER! It's pretty scary, she doesn't normal get that excited over stuff but I guess seeing mom is too much for her to handle, hehehe.
Making plans and buying stuff for the trip and getting packed are the thoughts for today and getting boards done and hoping to get boards early (Friday) to work over the weekend and into the week before we leave for extra money, which you can never have enough of, especially when you are going to China town and have Erica with you!
Well off to turn in boards we spent until 2AM thins morning finishing, and then to do the laundry (our washer is broken and we aren't spending anything until we get back!)
ENJOY!!!!
