There's No Place Like Home...

There's no place like home...there's no place like home...

Just got back yesterday from visiting my sister, brother and granddaughter in Ohio. We were only gone for three days and it feels like I was gone a month. That's probably due to the rigamarole we had to go through to get there. We had to drive 2 hours out of our way to drop DH's dad off at DH's brother's house. Then my sister has cats in the house and a dog. So, I had to sequester Ginger in a bedroom with a board across the frame so she could look out but not get out unless we had her on a leash. My granddaughter Lyla generously let us use her bed but it is so soft my bones are killing me. My brother Bruce, sister Julie and I went over to the old homestead to get the last of our late parents' belongings and that was somber. On the way home traffic was bad because there was two wrecks because it poured the rain from Toledo, Ohio to Richmond, Michigan. At two points along the way traffic was tied up because water was a foot deep on the road. Whew! There's no place like home!

P.S. I had a great time!
