14 Hour Visit to Arlington

Dad and I got to see J.G. , Thursday night. We had expected
to leave Loraine earlier that morning, but we were informed
that one of Dads' close friends father had passed away and the funeral
was Thursday morning. That's alright, and plus Dad felt better
about being able to be there for him.

We enjoyed the trip. Felt bad for Dad, cause he had worked a 12 hour
sift the night before, came home and took a 45 minute nap to try
to make the funeral. I had to take medication, cause I was hurting
really bad since it was getting cloudy and really humid, that always makes
me hurt two times worse. I wish I could of helped him with the driving,
but I could not keep my eyes open. He assured me he was alright and he'd
let me know if he couldn't handle it any longer. He said at one time, he was
passing this eighteen wheeler, and heard the truck slowing down or trying to brake,
(you know the sound the brakes make when they step on them, almost like a letting
steam out kinda sound. That's the best I can describe.) He passed the big
truck and kept hearing the same sound until he took a really close look and
it was me! He's such a shit. Since I'm missing some of my side teeth, he said
I must of been snoring and letting out that hissing noise at the same time.!
It use to bother me at first, cause all three would make fun of me, it's usually J.G.,
that tells me not to laugh in public, Dad tells me I should of done something about those
teeth years ago, and Cindy just gives me this, 'oh Mom, you poor thing you look!'.
Gonna do something about them this week. I PROMISE.

J.G. took Dad and I out the eat Thursday night when we got there. He said that
was our anniversary dinner he wanted to give us. We loved it. He called
his friend Pita to join us, and we all enjoyed each others company. We had to call
it a night early cause they both had to be a work early. So, that's all we saw of Mijo.
Just to know he's doing ok is good enough for us.

If anyone out there that reads my blog and knows how I can get pictures on
my blog, would you be so kind as to let me know how to go about it?
I have dial-up services so that may be a problem.
