I have been sick all week and I'm ready for it to be gone. All that's left now is a nagging cough, and it is very irritating! I finally sent Chuck out for some Robitussin today- that should tell you how bad it is.
I ended up doing a whirlwind trip back to my hometown this week. I got an email from Jackie, my very first best friend. (We met in 4th grade in Mrs. Hoscher's room and we had the same birthday. We were inseparable for three years. We were still friends thoroughout high school, but weren't in classes together. After graduation, we lost track of each other. We hooked up again about 4 years ago, and we picked right up where we left off so many years ago. In fact, last year we were able to celebrate our birthday together for the first time in 25 years! ) Anyways, she emailed me to tell me that her mom had died. I found out Wednesday and the funeral Friday in Corunna. Thankfully, Christy was willing to drive over here to get me and take me to the funeral.
I have decided that there really isn't anything left in Owosso that I miss. White's Bakery, Val's Pizza, and even the Hallmark store are all gone. The people that I'd want to see aren't there anymore. We had lunch at Sir Pizza and even that was awful. This month is my 20 year class reunion, but I'm not going. I saw who I wanted to see already this week, so what's the point?
Today has been a banner day! First off, Justin is coming home today!!!!!! We can hardly wait to see him tomorrow (assuming that my cough is gone). Between that and the fact that MSU SPANKED Illinois today makes it a day for the books!!! Let's see... MSU is UNDEFEATED now....what is UofM's record??? Bring it on... we're ready!
