Back to Reality

The trip home yesterday went well - good weather, no major traffic, 11 1/2 hours. When we arrived home, Keith washed the RV, Jeep and Camry - after driving all day! What a man! He amazes me.
It was back to reality today starting with our morning trip to Big River Cafe for lattes. As soon as I got to my office at 7:15 A.M., I was blasted with 8 messages on my phone (I do not like the phone) and 22 e-mails (even though I checked my email on vacation). It was a non-stop day of assessment analysis, corrective reading inventories and schedules, and let's not forget designing a new t-shirt and compiling sizes for 93 word millionaires. All in a day's work with no lunch! Am I having a good day? Well, not as good as my spa day Friday with Rose. What's that? My cellphone is playing "Sara Smiles." Saved by the song - Peggy has no one to pick up Sara today. My heart breaks to think she could be waiting with no one to get her. I rush to the rescue - good thing Grandma has a race car! Oh no - the car seat is in the jeep. Zip to the house for the car seat. I am in the car line in time to pick up my precious granddaughter saving her from feelings of abandonment. Now that makes for a great day!
