2.25 Hour Flight from Orlando, FL to South Bend, Indiana
I am so, so, so very tired. And so very warm. The flight from Orlando to South Bend was much smoother than the flight down.
I need sleep.
Take your meds, folks.

1 Cardigan Finally Given to Grandma Gator!
We made the trip to and from Aunt and Uncle Gator’s place today. It was a good day. Loud, but full of laughter, family, and a birthday cake for me! I finally gave Grandma Gator the cardigan I crocheted for her! I’m really happy with how it turned out and she loved it! I have to get up super, super early for my flight home tomorrow.
Take your meds, folks.

1 Interview Taken While on Break Today
We had a living room picnic today for dinner. Air fried hot dogs with toasted buns, some delicious macaroni salad, some barely edible coleslaw no one liked, and some hickory flavored baked beans. It was delicious. And no one put anything but mustard on their hot dogs!

Mac and I went out to dinner this evening. It was nice to get out of the house just the two of us. But there’s so much going on right now that I am just a ball of anxiety.
I know things will get better. I refuse to believe otherwise.
