Ahhh, after 11 days of having my son home, post surgery, he went back to school today. I'm glad he is healing, glad he is able to go back to school and so glad for the quiet and six glorious hours to myself!

i'm glad he's healing nicely and ready to go back to school.

Ever do something that makes you feel better about yourself? That's happened to me today. I was on my way home from work this afternoon when I saw a guy walking up the road. That area was more like a country road than anything else. My instinct said stop and give him a lift. Usually I don't do such...
