The beach trip...went pretty good..there was a bit of drama a couple of times but I had expected that due to the high amount of estrogen surrounding me
all the kids together with us..for one week...blended and mixed up..learning new things about each other and each finding their place...and we all survived it and learned some things in the process...
still lots going on..Michele's oldest leaves for college next Tuesday..and Michele's school starts that same day..
Caleigh had a blast on the beach trip..she told me mid week that she would miss me when she went back with Kim..then said it again in front of Kim when I returned her..Caleigh loved the ocean..me catching fish barehanded in the surf, showing her jellyfish washed in on the beach and hunting sharks teeth..she also liked the huge holes I dug each day for her to play in...the resort was good..the beaches crowded..
I've finally figured out..
I'm normal...we all have the same chitt to deal with..it's how we deal with it that makes us what we are..
dad's death feels like it happened years ago...and it's only been a little over a month...
I may have one more quick beach trip in me this year if I can get it worked out..Hilton Head..labor day..me, Michele..my family..we will see...
