The New One

I love New York!

Above my cabinets, I have this great area that I can keep some “things”. I’ve decided to keep a coffee collection. If you don’t know, I’m a little addicted. And I LOVE Starbucks. So when I travel, I always pick up a coffee mug from that city. Starbucks has had them for years. This trip was no different and I just put up my NYC mug tonight. 🙂

I’m running out of room.

Home, Sweet?, Home

9972

I flew back to MSP today. Arrived a couple of hours ago. I honestly have to say that its relaxing to be here. I am hoping to get back to some sort of normalcy, even if it’s only for awhile.

I appreciate the comments and the emails that you have all sent over the last 2 weeks. I save every one… Currently, I have over 115 in my folder. I cannot believe the outpouring that we have received. I took just about everyone’s advice and was able to atleast tell my dad that I loved him. When I said that I was going to back to Minneapolis, he just shook his head no. 😦

He’s still sleeping alot, staring out into the distance… But he did eat some food today! Mom told me that when she asked if he wanted some more Ensure, he said, “I don’t mind if I do…”  We know that his personality and humor is still around and that is comforting. 🙂

At the end of the day, I am realizing that home is wherever you want it to be… it’s with those that you love. Maybe “home” isn’t even a place at all. If my dad were to die tonight, I know that he will always be with me, at home.

Thanks to everyone for surrounding me with what is my “home” all the time, no matter where I am. That’s what is really Sweet.

Happy Memorial Day…

Truman Village

So, weird photo for Memorial Day… but to me, it symbolizes freedom. My friends call this place Truman Village from the movie Truman Show. But, we wouldn’t have this perfect community with flags flying, great skies, beautiful landscaping, etc, if we didn’t have our freedom. Thanks to the soldiers who are fighting or have fought to keep our country the way that we want it… Thanks to my dad, grandfather, Uncle Gale, Uncle Danny, cousin Billy, brother-in-law Matt and probably others that I’m not naming.
