Getting ready to Go

Well it's been a busy month!! Packing & making sure I have everything I need, going to b-day party for grand kid, talking to my Mom (first time in years), baseball games for 2 grand kids & more packing.
The talking to my Mom part was, humm, interesting, I did what I usually do. Answered her question politely then tried to make my getaway, she just kept talking to me....nicely! Like she really wanted to know about my life....no negative reaction when I told her I read tarot cards & palms. No freaking out when I said I had my Pagan friends light candles for Kandi when she was sick. She even said thanks! We were not only nice to each other but I think friendly! Not once did I feel cornered or like I was being attacked, which has been the norm for me with her & Kandi for years. When she was ready to go she asked for a hug, I said OK, then she said she missed me.....at this point in my life my Mom dosent really know me, but I told her if she wants I'll be spending the summer in Washington I would be willing to spend some time with her & get to know her again...
The little girl in me loves my Mom, & the woman in me would like the chance to get to know her as an adult. I guess we'll see.

The b-day party was great... lots of friends...lots of kids...lots of food...lots of cake....fun was had by all. Mikey seemed to have a great time & so did Jo.
The b-ball game was super. Landon was awsome!!!! Pops & I had a super time watching his game & I got some great photos! He got some great hits & ran the bases too!!! Playing with Maddi was toooo fun too. Craig pitched for the first time on his game & did a great job!!! He's a great first baseman too!!!! I, at one point screamed in Chris's ear " Yeah Craig"..... Good friend she didn't get mad at all! I think we'll get to go to at least one more game before I go!!

I'm off to Sedona 2moro for a card reading party! Then home on fri morn for more packing so I can be ready to leave for Washington on Wed. next week. Talk about busy!!!!
