VACATION

Tim and I just got back from a mini 5 day Vacation from Wisconsin. 10 hour drive there and 10 hour drive back (yuck). Too bad for me that my boyfriend is terrified of flying. So 2 days of the vaca were spent on the road. It was an "OK" time. His uncle (who is 2 years older than him) lives out there and recently took his grandmother up there and put her in a nursing home. She has alzheimer's and parkinson's and isn't doing well. Poor thing. Tim wanted to go up and see her (just incase). She would try to speak but you couldn't even hear her, and she went to the bathroom in her pants. All I could think of was when I first met her, 4 years ago, and she was full of life. Sad, how fast it creeps up on us.
Oh, and you wanna know how the medication is working? As far as weightloss, due to the vacation I wasn't doing my healthy meals but the good news is my weight stayed the same. The bad news is these pills make all food pass right through my intestines like a wet pipe (if you catch my drift). Another reason the vaca was just "OK", the whole time I was concerned where a restroom was. Which is not a fun time. And ofcourse the one day we planned a nice dinner at a comedy club with his family was one of my worst bathroom days. It was a 30 minute drive from their house and I had to stop at every gas station I seen hoping they had a restroom. Thank God I drove. I was mortified. 
But on the positive side, it was a trip away from the norm and I got to spend time with Tim, which is always a plus. He was sweet as pie to me the whole time. Hopefully our next vacation is better.
