Wordless Wednesday-Perks on the Road

(Note from Mom: Dixie is very happy that we have a double bed and extra pillows for her in the hotel. We were sharing a single bed at my grandparents and that is not up to her standards)

On the road again! We just can't wait to get on the road again!

That's right, we are getting ready to travel again. Mom has to go back to the Mayo Clinic place because her pain has spread to her good side and we need to look into more treatment options so she doesn't lose function in her good arm.
Tomorrow we leave for Charleston, SC to visit Mom's grandparents. It is hard for Mom to travel in the car for long periods so it is best to break it up and give her a day to rest. This means we will do an early Christmas with them then leave on the 23rd for Florida.
We will go to Mom's appointment at Mayo on Christmas Eve then we will drive back home to hopefully be able to take part in our big Christmas Eve dinner. We invite friends and family to this every year and it is Mom's favorite part of Christmas.
We will try to blog from the road, but don't know how our internet access will be!

Snow!

Dixie: As I'm sure you all know, we live in the South. It is usually a warmish and only occasionally wet place. But yesterday a terrible thing happened! That icky cold wet stuff fell from the sky and stuck to the ground :-/
Lola: Dixie the catasillly does NOT know whut she is barking bout. This iz the furst time I has gots to see snows (since I iz only 7.5 monthz owld) and I think it iz one of the most fantasticest fings I have ever seen! It iz eatable and playable anf just playn FUNZ!Dixie: I insisted that Mom put on all of my snow gear (sweatshirt, coat, Muttluks) before I would consent to go out. Even then I was skeptical.

Wordless Wednesday-Are you done studying YET?

Mom is very busy with exam season

We are very sorry we haven't updated. Last week and this coming week are filled with projects bring due and exams for Mom, so she has been on the computer any time she isn't sleeping. Because she needs to pass her classes, we are letting her hog the computer and taking a break from the blog until she is finished!
