Let's backtrack a bit. My daughter, who is 19, graduated from High School this year and decided she wanted to move to California to go to school in the spring. Well...we live in a small town and she has virtually lived here her whole life. When she decided on this move she left me, her friends...everything that was familiar to her. My lovely step sister was kind enough to take her in and show her the California ropes, but she has been down, and depressed. I think she may have bitten off a bit more than she could chew with this little adventure. To make a long story, short, she's coming home after 3 months. The pace and California mentality are just too much for her. Her best friend will be traveling with me next month to bring her home. I'm relieved that I will have company to and from California. It's a 10-11 hour drive from my home in Northern Oregon. After taking my girl down last July, I had to drive back alone and THAT was NO FUN!! So, I'm a bit excited to hold her in my arms and kiss her sweet face. :)
In other news; I have submitted the latest photo to The September Photo of the Day Challenge. The motivation for todays photo is "on my plate." Although the GORGEOUS meal on my plate was actually taken a few days ago, it IS MY photo and the Mediterranean Pasta was home made and delicious. Just so you know.
Well. I think that's it for me right now. I've gotten an early start today (for once,) so I may be blogging more later. I have a DIY project I'm working on that just might make it's way into my journaling. Have a blessed day! :)
Great pic. Now, I'm starving, thanks very much. Hope you enjoyed the food as much as I enjoyed the photo.
