The "ash dive" and other Mother's Day thoughts
I'm in, fellas. I haven't jumped out of an airplane in over 20 years but I like the idea of skydiving on dad's birthday--which also happens to be Father's Day this year--and spreading his ashes in the sky. I think he would approve. I just hope I'm not too heavy to do it.
I also just upped my spinning to 3 times a week. I did it this morning, making this the first time I've done it for 2 consecutive days. I'm enjoying a really cool endorphin buzz right now as I sip my morning coffee, too. I'll be snoring later on the plane ride back to Texas, of course, but right now I feel great.
I'll be getting off my plane in Houston tonight, renting a car and staying at Mom's house. Erica will come down on Saturday and we'll spend some time with her family. On Sunday, I'll be there to see y'all (except Mark) at that brunch thing for Mom in Kemah. On Monday, I have to go to College Station and have a serious talk with my boss and let him know that if the company's serious about moving me to Florida then it's looking like they're going to have to buy my house from me. I am going to fly Erica to Jax next weekend, when we plan to find a house we like and put in an offer. I need to get Courtney and Erica to Florida as soon as possible this summer and get them get settled in. I do NOT want to keep traveling and be not able to move until my house sells on its own which, at this pace, will probably be October. I will lose my mind (and very likely my career) if I have to keep doing that. I am so tired of being a weekend daddy and husband that I want to scream.
Thus, as y'all can see, I've got a busy few days ahead of me and a VERY busy summer laid out. This fall, if all goes well, our lives should begin to settle back into a nice groove again.
See y'all Sunday. Mark, when are you going to post some more Lillian pics?
