hitting the road

I will be taking a bit of a break from blogging.  Tomorrow we head for the North and "home" to Pa.  Long drive, but we do it often and hubby likes the drive.  Go figure?  I miss my family so much, have the need to see them and be with them.  Mom and Dad have been doing better, Mom is still re-covering from her hip break/surgery.  She still uses a walker and has a way to go...but improving.  I just need to see her with my own eyes...the last time I saw her, she was still in the re-hab center.  She doesn't think she is progressing, as she is.  It is hard for her...

I am always sad to leave my dogs, my good friend is watching Bella for me.  She will be with 4 other dogs, so she will be happy.  Now Cisco, he will go to be boarded, and this will be the first time he will be alone in the run.  Before he had Rocky and they could keep each other company. But I love the vet I got to and I know he will be well cared for. 

So I will see you all soon, and I wish you all well...xo

road trip

 Who can read these words and NOT think of the Grizwald's? 

It is time for a road trip, going to Pa. to see mom and dad. It is a long drive but hubby likes to drive...I am not much of a flyer so this works for me too.  I have to board the dogs (2 of them) and that is always sad and stressful for me.  And them...Little Bella will come with us, to save a bit of money and keep her from the cage at the vet. (I understand their policy of letting them out 3 times a day, but I hope to never have to use it. )  But Cisco and Rocky will share a big run, and this works best for them.  Bella is to small to risk being with them in the run, Cisco gets excited and is a moose... squish...
I will love to spend time with mom and dad, they have had their share of health issues this past few months and I have worried so much about them, and wished I could be there...we have talked about that here before.  So I will take this time and cherish it and help to do as much as I can to help them out. 
I have some books downloaded on my Nook, (didn't know once they were downloaded, you did NOT need wi-fi to use it...DUH. So I will have full acess to it while traveling and once we get there.  yay... downloading some more tunes to my playlists today...I should be set.
Lets just hope the healthier eating habits I have acquired, do not go by the wayside and lead to a full on "fall of the wagon..." can you see me stuffin Twinkies in my mouth at the rest stops....gosh, hope not.
Be well my friends, see you soon....
