It's Official!

Yes, after five days of whining, my daughter is returning home from Guatemala.  I got a sweet little text about a week ago saying "can you or Grandma send me a little money so I can stay two more weeks??"  Uh...NO.  She then decided that she would take the rest of her spending and emergency money and pay the $200 to change her flight and boarding for the two weeks.  What emergency could possibly arise?  I haven't heard from her since I strongly suggested she get back here so I wasn't sure.  I finally got a call this afternoon that she will indeed be coming in tonight.  SO...I'm blogging early so I can get to the airport.  She has a summer job all ready and waiting for her, the news of which did not seem to make her any less upset that she had to end her vacation.  Real Life...

I spent a few hours in the E/R today because that's what you do at the E/R, right?  It took me nearly three hours to find out that I'm fine.  No fractures, just a sprain and a bruised ego.

For the second week in a row, there was a huge breakfast at church.  Some people there just love to cook, so they do!  Amazing and much appreciated.

I'm still in search of the elusive lime shake from Don's.  I found Don's, but not in it's original state.  A sad impostor actually.  I wrote about it a few weeks ago, and all I did was conjure up that taste--now I can't forget about it!  I want that lime shake!  Time to start searching for a recipe, I guess.  If anyone knows where I can get a lime shake--a really great one--please let me know.

On my way in a little while to the Big Confusing Maze, otherwise known as O'Hare International Airport.

Can't wait to see the kid!
