I returned from the three week whirlwind European trip on June 21st and had two days to unpack, do laundry, go through mail, pay bills, etc. etc. and pack for a four day boating/camping trip in Kentucky. I returned Sunday from that and realized I forgot my password for getting into my blog. I tried resetting the password, but "they" would send the info to the account I couldn't remember the password for...but I finally remembered!
I'm up to date on what's going on with most every one...just haven't had time to comment yet. I can't remember if I mentioned I decided to sell my house. I bought the house when my husband and I were divorced. I put it on the market two days before I left on the trip and there has been much activity. I received a good offer yesterday and signed a contract...so now we'll be looking to possibly rent a place or buy. Ultimately, we'd like to move to the Carolinas or somewhere?
J is doing great! He was in his two week assessment through the courts while I was gone and they assessed that he just needs an out-patient program. He goes to a class Monday through Thursday, 9-12noon and then works from 2pm-10pm. His boss agreed to let him only work until 10pm, instead of 1am for the two months that he is attending. Then he will only go twice a week 9-12noon for a few months and then once a week. In between showings of the house, I've been driving about 2 1/2 hours total per day to get him to everything. It's a small price to pay for having my son back!
He had his last court appearance last week and his attorney was very excited that he was able to be granted "Treatment in Lieu of Conviction" in two different counties. In his 34 years of handling these cases, he's never seen it happen. I've been praying for all of us almost every day...even on the trip.
Here are a few pictures of the 888 that I took...
In Lisbon, Portugal
Cinque Terre, Italy (We hiked 1 1/2 hours from one town to the next, along the Italian riviera)
Venice (this was on my birthday...took a Gondola ride)
The trip was amazing and I am blessed in many ways. I'll post more later!
