Alright! I realize that the videos are totally cheating. I get that it makes me feel like I don't need to write about some of the other, much bigger and more exciting, things that are going on in life.
Let me explain. Between the move, the military adjustment, the idea of Garrett being in medical school full time, and preparations for the girls, I am just a bit overwhelmed. For that reason, I have devoted myself to the "day at a time" philosophy. Hence, the videos and short little blurbs about the everyday things that happen along the road.
Forgive me, those of you that would like more of the "real" me..... you are just gonna have to hang in there til I have a little more to give.
In the mean time I will say that Dudley is the best non-human traveler out there. Not only will he sleep for hours on end, but he feels it necessary to walk right up to the front of the car and check on me from time to time. Today, he did that, looked at me with this face like "Dear God Mama, PLEASE let me out of this car!". After witnessing this desperate cry for attention, I pulled into a Burger King, bought a burger and split it with him. While the burger was great, I must say that the speed with which Dudley digested it was impressive, as was the gas that followed that digestion. Thank goodness for electric windows and fresh air!
For those of you concerned regarding his overall health and well being, I DID, in fact, let him out of the car on multiple occasions and let him run. We are pretty close he and I. We take care of each other.
Anyway, all that said, we are in Verona, Wisconsin for the evening and head off to Cleveland tomorrow. Yippie!!!!! I'll update ya then!
What an adventure YOU'RE having! I'M the jealous one! It is fun to read about each leg of you're trip and to realize just how much closer you are getting to all that awaits. I'm glad you have Dudley to keep you company and that he's doing well.
