8.6.12 Evening

Good evening from beautiful NC!!!!! It's always great to have that feeling of being on vacation... and does not hurt to have a mudslide in hand..... It was definitely a journey to get here... my Tom Tom (six months old) does not have the most up to date streets... BUT MY IPHONE does...one point for the IPHONE.... Seven months ago, A. I wouldn't have driven here myself B. When the gps wouldn't work, I would have probably broken down in tears and asked someone else what I should do...Instead I took a deep breath and pulled out my iphone... realized I could get it on it... and then went back to the gps and put in any street I could in the town....  then my great Navigator, Jordan assisted using my phone once we got around town... 
It was a VERY LONG day in the car... we left around 9, with one gas stop and two potty breaks, we finally got here 3:45.... It is a wonderful feeling to be at my friend's house... so good to be here!!!! I owe my friend such a HUGE thank you for opening your home up to us... YOU ARE AMAZING and so sweet....it's like we just saw each other last night... Funny thing is we are both sitting here while Mackenzie watches a BARBIE (GAG ME) movie.... I on my laptop and her on her phone..lol can't wait for  the kids to go to sleep so the girl time can start.. I am so blessed and I know it.... I have been given a true gift not only in friendship but in this day and all that I have... Thanking God for all that I have... The good and the bad.  I understand they go hand and hand.   Make the rest of tonight Marvelous... and as you awaken on Tremendous Tuesday take time to teach someone something.....
