Early Morning Airport Run, Hiking, and Adjustments

Hello everyone! I know I have a LOADED post title. PLEASE, hang in here with me as I am adjusting to working part time. I am off Saturday, so I hope to have a good cup of warm drink and catch up visiting you all. I miss visiting your blogs daily. At this time, I am doing good to post. It has been a big adjustment working. I also don't feel super well physically still so to say this has been an ADJUSTMENT is an understatement. This is all a trial period as well. If in a few weeks I discover I can't pull this all off, then I will make a decision  about how many days I will work. 

Anyway, 

Wednesday I got up at 4 a.m. and took our daughter to the airport for her to go knock another national park off her list. Yellowstone!!!!!!!!! To say I am envious is an understatement. 

Off she goes very very early to Montana! Well, she is there now! Living her best life! LOL!

I had to settle with a Dunkin Donut Coffee and some hiking time with our youngest. Which was AWESOME too!!

After I dropped them off and grabbed a frozen coffee I headed home for some sleep. Later in the day my youngest (young as in he is almost 19) and I went on a hike at a state park close by and had some Mexican for lunch. It was a nice time with him. He works a lot of hours and had an off day in the middle of the week. He works rotating 12-hour shifts on river boats and barges. 

It was nice day. High 70's was the temp! Beautiful time. I got home just in time to rest and head to church. 

Today was a working day. It was a long tiring day to be honest. Hannah sent us some pictures of her trip so far. She has been skeet shooting, hiking, trout fishing and living it up in Yellowstone. 

Hannah is in the middle (Our daughter) and her boyfriend as well as her childhood friend since BIRTH, Amariah which is a twin. 

She left hot muggy Mississippi for cold and snow! She sent me a video of her running in the snow. 

How nice....😆

This is me LEAVING work and one of my coworkers which happens to be a lifelong friend of mine. We have been friends for years. 

 I was so ready to go! LOL!! It was fun but my feet are not used to standing for hours straight like that. 

This was before the crazy crowds hit! We literally had lines of people nonstop. No bathroom breaks, no break at all. It was CONSTANT. 

Forgive my pasty white looking self...😆😏😉😅 This anemia has not been fun at all. It has drained me so bad. I usually have color and I look so pale. I hope the new iron I am taking will help me have more energy and be able to get outside more. 

I picked up a premade dinner (Chicken Spaghetti) for tonight earlier in the day before I went to work from a local cater that does premade family meals. I hardly ever do things like this. I always feel guilty, but I wanted my family to have a nice warm meal. I got off way past dinner time. Usually, we eat at 5 or 5:30 but I didn't even get home until 7:30. Derrick put it on when he got home for work and warmed it up in the oven and made some bread. It was delicious. I was glad I didn't resort to fast food. 

The other night I made chicken fajitas in the crockpot. They had a warm meal that night as well when I got home later. 

This is all such a big adjustment. While I do sort of like getting out of the house, I feel a tad overwhelmed to be honest. I am not use to so much busyness. I know it will be just for a season. I think it is good for me to get out and help a friend in need by working and being a help for their business. I have just been having a lot of BIG and some HARD changes recently.

You all don't give up on me! :) 

Please, still come by and visit! Know that I WILL VISIT YOU SOON TOO!!!!

With love,

Chrissy T
