A pack rat win.

'They say' if you haven't used something in 6 months you should get rid of it.  I can't believe that.  I ran across these body charms that I've had for 25 years.  I doubt if I've used them in 20 years, but they've been a real hit on this trip!  Elena gets up every morning and is ready to have them put on her hands and arms.  You'll have to blow up this picture (right click on the pic; click 'open link in new window'; then click on the pic in that window and is should get bigger) up to see the charms.  There is one on each arm just above the elbow, one just above each wrist;  one on the back of each hand  and one on each cheek.  They're just little metal things that look like branding irons and you dip them into some sparkly dust and then touch them to her.  It's been so much fun.  I'm so glad I've never gotten rid of them.  I'm a solid pack rat; no hope for rehabilitation when I have wins like this.  :)

Gretta, Garrett and Elena have gone off to some amusement park tonight.  I've loaded a lot of things into the car and packed up everything else.  I've had my bath and I'm all ready to watch the Thunder take on the Heat, again.  I really, really enjoy these NBA finals, especially when our Thunder is playing to win it all.

We check out tomorrow and I'll be going visiting.  I'm happy to have this opportunity to visit folks I don't get to see enough, so I thank God and ask Him to keep me safe as I set of by myself.  I can do it; I promised Don I could, so I will and I know God will help me.
