I realize that we have not updated the site since before Christmas, so I will write a little about that now and add some pictures later.
Christmas was very good.
We left work on Monday and found a motel in Georgia that was not that great. We got into the room and it was small and very yucky. I pull the covers back on the bed and seen a black bug in the pillow case. I made Greg jump because I freaked out. The bug was not on the side where the pillow case opens. It was on the closed side. Greg killed the bug and we did not use that pillow. The shower head in the bath tub was so low that I had to duck to rinse my hair. I normally do not have to do that.
The next day we got to Ben's house at the same time he got home from work. We went out to dinner. Had a good visit with him, and left the next day to go to Michigan. We got there and met Greg's mom and step-dad at a bar/restaurant and played Texas Hold 'em, and had dinner. It was fun. I got to meet Uncle Harry.
At Greg's mom's house I got a little surprise, because Barb had a kitten. She was so cute and she looked like my Cleo. We went to a Red Wings game in Detroit on Friday. We went to Canada before the game. We got some candy and chips while we were there.
The next day everyone was there and we had a wonderful time. We had a great dinner. Then all 10 of us adults played some board games. It was really fun. I am pretty sure everyone had fun.
The next day we went to church (called Mars Hill). It was a nice church and both Greg and I enjoyed it. Later that night we went to the movies with Greg's mom, step-dad, and brother Ben.
The next morning we drove over to Pittsburgh to see my mom. There was a lot of my family at my mom's for dinner. I got to see my aunt Rose and her husband Steve. Amanda and her boyfriend Nick. Uncle Bobby and his wife Diane.Step sister Dawn and her husband Nick. Plus all the kids.
We had a good time. I helped Elizabeth with the bear Greg and I got her for Christmas.(pictures later)
Unfortunately, I got really sick while at my mom's. So I was feeling under the weather. Greg had been fighting his cold since right before we left home. We left my mom's on Thursday morning and ended up getting a motel that night because we were so tired and sick. On Friday we made it home. However, on our way home on Friday we seen a SUV flip over in front of us. The person driving over corrected and ended up flipping the SUV.
As soon as we got home we went to the doctor. Then went home and to bed. Went to work the next day.
That Sunday was New Year's eve and we went down to Sarasota to the car races. We seen the figure 8 bus races, boat trailer race, and enduro races. The lights went out for an hour and a half, just like last year. Wonder if they did it on purpose? The races were good.
We went to a concert tonight. We went to see the Pink Spiders. The band before them was the Love Arcade and we really enjoyed them more.
Tomorrow we will go see my grandma(she is in the hospital) and we will take my mom to see Gallagher. She will get to meet Greg's dad and Brenda. Will write more about all of that later.
