Travel Day

I’m so glad we decided to do Mom’s burial on Monday’s warm and sunny Earth Day, because today was much colder and rainy.  With all the memorial events completed, I drove my brother and his girlfriend to the airport for their flight home to Colorado.  It had been awhile since I drove in Chicago’s morning rush-hour traffic!  Sure am glad I don’t have to drive in that every day anymore!

It was sure nice to have them both with me these past few days and weeks.  We started talking about future get-togethers this summer which will certainly be something fun to look forward to. 

But, for today, once I got back home, it was a day to do virtually nothing else but rest and recharge after the life-changing events of the past few weeks.  I really needed it!
