What a whirlwind trip! I got my dental implant put in, the 2 appointments being the bookends for my 3 week stay in California. I was able to get down to my sister’s in So. Calif. and spend some time with her. We talked and laughed and did a lot of emptying of drawers and closets at our stepmom’s; and then the sorting started. Lots of stuff, files and photos, lots of choices about what to keep for business and what to keep for sentimental reasons.

My sister delighted with a photo of the cousins
I was blessed by being able to visit with dear friends throughout my trip, some coming to me as I cared for Mom – thank you Mike & Mindy, Launa & Robin, and Sue Mc-S, and then as I drove to and from So. Calif., thank you Launa & Steve & fam, Carol & Vernon, Lynn & Thea, and by happenstance, Dave & Modesto Cov peeps. We look forward to a couple of weeks in California in July to see more friends and family again.
Thank you for your prayers over my stepmom’s passing and for my travels. I definitely had angels watching over me on my return home; I almost missed my flight!
The contrast of leaving chilly gray and brown Indiana and walking into California colorful spring was wonderful.
