Monday, Mon...er...Tuesday, Tuesday

It's Tuesday, May 18, 2010 there are....kidding. I really don't know how many days are left in the year.

We went to Nashville on Saturday. Now any normal person would have no problem driving down I-24 into downtown. Nope, not me. We kept getting closer to Bell Road/Blue Hole Road where all the flooding was on the interstate and I started getting antsy. Not because I thought there would be another flash flood right then, just because there was history there. People lost their lives there. So, yes, when we got to the area and I looked at the road, at the median concrete things, the trees with the debris AT THE TOP OF THEM: I cried. It was overwhelming almost....I didn't know these people. I was very blessed and still had my home, my vehicle, my possessions - my LIFE. But I cried. Thankfully, Hubs didn't look at me like I had lost my mind. I looked at him and said "sorry" and noticed he had teared up a little, too.

We made it to Lifeway where Angie Smith was signing her book. I got to talk to her for about 10 or 15 minutes and it was like talking to a friend - not someone you just met. She was sooo nice, soooo real, and soooo pretty (Even at 35 weeks pregnant with Miss Charlotte). I could have talked to her all day. Keep her in your prayers...if you have read her blog you know the anxiety she is feeling with the upcoming delivery of Miss Charlotte and some medical issues she (Angie) has been having.

Then we made our way over to the zoo. We made it through half of it before it started thundering and raining. One of the ladies in the (overpriced just because it says ZOO on it) gift shop told us that she had heard over their radio that the elephants and giraffes were going a little nuts because of the thunder so they were being put up. Oh well, another trip for another day. Maybe in the fall cause it was wicked hot. In the tiger exhibit, the bengal tiger was pacing, pacing, pacing...I wonder if he knew about the weather. It was kinda strange.

We had a great day together. I love spending time with my little family. Seems like we miss so much cause it's always run run run run run...it's nice to have a day to just do whatever.

On a different note - are there any blogs you read that you want to share? I follow a bunch of them and seem to add a new one about every week. I love it. You never know who is feeling what you are and you feel like you're the only person it's happening to.

I guess that's all for now....I'm sure I'll have more later.
