Finally home now for a couple months!!!! No anticipated travel for awhile. Plan to go with my friend to bingo for my birthday. My nephews and nieces had a surprise birthday dinner for me last weekend. They already know I'm going to be at bingo on my birthday! I got to hold my new grand-nephew (he's almost 2 months old now); hug up my 2-year-old grand-nephew and got lots of hugs and kisses from my grand-nieces!! Plus time to spend with family - it was a great way to spend Saturday evening.
I was thinking of going to Red Lake for the upcoming Labor Day pow-wow this weekend but changed my mind. I've been doing so much driving lately, I just want to stay close to home. Plus next week will probably be horrendous for driving around the Twin Cities - St. Paul is hosting the RNC and I'm sure it'll be chaos around the Twin Cities.
I'm heading up to Duluth in two weeks for my grandson's 7th birthday party. So, it's not like I'll be home for long. But the two weeks of being able to stay home will be wonderful.
State Fair is going on right now and so I try to avoid that area of St. Paul due to the crowds and congested traffic.
Thinking of my family a lot. And my friends. Some I've lost contact with over the years. Wondering if I should try to get in contact again. Unsure at this time. Will have to think about it. What if they tell me to "get lost" or hang up on me or ignore me? Or maybe they'll be glad to hear from me again?
