Family Reunions

I realize it's been a couple of weeks since I posted but I had gone to Michigan to a family reunion of my fathers side of the family. My sis G. & I flew out Thursday morning. We stayed for the most part with our cousin D. & his wife in their beautiful home on one of the many lakes in Battle Creek. Our last night, we stayed near Grand Rapids with another cousin J. and her husband. We finished breakfast to saw 2 fawns chompin' away in her backyard.

It was a blast. A much needed removal of the pains of August I went through. It was so incredible. We hadn't seen any of this side of the family in probably 35-40 years, but it was like we'd been there all along.

I got to see my God-parents, quite possibly for the last time but I hope not, who are both as with it as you or I. My Aunt strutted, and I mean seriously strutted, to her spot in the group family photo taken. I almost wet myself. Many of my cousins were there and we got to meet some we didn't even know we had. Lots of grown kids of cousins with their wives & kids. all so very welcoming and genuine.

My cousins' wife wrote a book which she gave a copy to each of us, called Return to Innocence, by Jill Edelen. It was a very pleasant
read. I finished it before we landed back home.

G. & I both want to go back again sometime in the near future. Maybe not next year but maybe, the year after that.

The only bleak point is the fact I got eaten alive by chiggers. Oh dear lord, how much they itch. I've got clear nail polish all over my feet & lower legs. I'm taken anti-histamines but I just read that spraying Windex is also a good remedy. Might have to give that a go as well. Another thought was hydrogen peroxide. Right now the itch is down but I really thought I wad going to rip my feet off of my body. To make it worse, it doesn't seem like anyone else got attacked, just ME! Not nice.

My friend & co-worker J. stayed at the house with the 3 boys for me. What a sweetie. I missed them all so much and they seemed very happy to see me when I walked in the door Tues. night. My cousins' did have a couple of small dogs, Lucy & Rocky, that took to me right away so that made it a little easier for me.

Now I'm back home and trying to get back into the swing of things.

I have the 1 day off 'cuz I'm going back up to Phoenix to an Aquatic conference all day Sat. Time for me to get some inspiration. Hopefully, I'll return with some ideas and a fresh outlook. I need something.

Well, I'm off to get some more cleaning done today.

Stay healthy and rested. Take some Me time when necessary. It'll do ya some good.

Peace out
