Over Easy

You just never know what's gonna shake out when you open your eyes in the morning.
Who knew last Tuesday when the phone rang at 5:30 AM things would go the way they did.
By 10:00 AM I was told to call Family and let them know GK probably would not make it through the day.

Today, he is home.
Today he is happy.
Today, no matter what the doctors say, he feels good.
Today he will spend the day with his wife, his family, and his dogs.
Today is the best day of his life.

Everyone slept well last night.
Julie said Grammy was up a few times, but that's not a bad thing.
GK slept through the night and was happy to be in his own bed.
I will stay there tonight and however long I need to.

Julie went home this morning and I was sad to see her go.
I think I may have even welled up a little.
The last time my eyes leaked for Julie is when she took a spanking for me in like 1975.
I cried because I felt bad for her getting the spanking, but at the same time, I was glad it was her and not me.
Is that bad?
I think it is.
Sorry Julie.
I sent home a five gallon bucket of eggs and a box each of chicken and goose eggs.
I hope that makes up for things.

We talked to Kelly yeterday and she said Lloyd is getting ready to go.
I bet it's a hard time for the boys.
I wonder if pilots from Iraq would get paid big money to deliver mail in Iowa?
If you read this Lloyd, be careful and don't worry about getting me a souvenir.
I understand you will have a lot on your mind, so you can just pick me up a little something from the airport in Billings when you get back and we can both agree to believe it's from over there.
My friend Julie Nickerson was on vacation and went to see where Wyatt Earp was burried.
She brought me back a rock and said it was from the grave.
It took me awhile to figure out that the rock could have been from the flower garden in her front yard, but I chose to believe the grave story.
I still have the rock.

Mike just called to say he passed Julie on I-5.
She was going the other way so she didn't see him.

Wyatt is home and starting to get bored.
He will miss having his Aunts here.
I hope Wendy will visit soon.
He went to visit the neighbor lady (stinky neighbors) yesterday, and she fell asleep in the chair.
He couldn't remember our phone number and isn't allowed to walk on the road by himself, so he had to wait till we came to get him.
He was not to thrilled.

I have to get back to the big house.

I was just thinking.
Thinking about leaky eyes.
I remember crying the day Kelly moved to the big house when I was little kid.
That was a really sad day.
