Tonight is my last night here. When I got here three weeks ago, it seemed like such a long visit but it has flown by.
Chad had made the best gumbo last week and then froze the leftovers so I defrosted two containers of gumbo and fixed that for dinner tonight. Chad and Nicole got home about the same time, we ate, and then headed out to deer hunt. I filled a quart jar with leftover gumbo and I’m bringing it home for us to have for dinner when I get home Sunday.
I’m not dreading leaving tomorrow as much as I usually do. Yes, there will probably be a few tears but I’m so looking forward to spending an evening with my friend, knitting probably til late into the night. Also, I kinda feel like I closed a door that should never have been opened with deciding not to buy a house here. It’s funny how things work out. The realtor I started out using just kinda dropped the ball. Even though there were no houses really to see, I asked questions about a couple and she never got answers for me. There’s a house for sale by owner that I wanted to see and several times they said they’d call me “in a few days” and didn’t Just wasn’t meant to me and it’s a good feeling to have had so many confirmations.
I’ll feel a whole lot better once I’m through Tulsa and OKC but right now . . I’m ready to sleep in my own bed. Dang, I’m going to miss this little girl though!

When you get home and miss her, just think of her face and all the smiles you brought to her while you were there! What a lucky girl she is! There will be something that comes up and it will be perfect for you and Vince for you getaway home!

Safe travels on your long journey.

Drive carefully, and let us know when you arrive safely, so we can take off the worry hats. This was a great visit for you.

You will have days of talking about Addie’s antics and conversations for Vince. They are so much fun. We had the four year old great granddaughter this past weekend. Took her with me to a quilt show and we saw a fan quilt done in bright colors. Her comment, “OH! Look at the party hats!”. Happy trails to you.
