I’m up; it’s not even 6 AM yet.  I’m leaving for Mississippi today.  Ah, it feel so good to be headed home for the week.  I can’t wait to see all of my family.  I decided to do this trip a little different from all of the previous ones.  Instead of driving the 10.5 hours straight to my hometown of Philadelphia, I’m stopping in Jackson, Mississippi…well, Florence to be exact…and staying tonight at my grandparents’ house.  This will cut my driving time down to 8.5 hours.  I’ll drive on to Philadelphia and my other granny’s house on Tuesday.  I’ll be there till Saturday when I’ll drive back to Jackson to pick up Bryan at the airport.  We’ll spend the night in Jackson and head back to Austin on Sunday.  I can’t believe I managed to not have to do the whole drive in one sitting this time.  Breaking it down makes it a lot better.  I also can’t believe I managed to get Bryan to fly to Jackson and drive back with me.  I didn’t even have to twist his arm.  He is one of a kind, and I love him!  🙂

I don’t know how much blogging I’ll be able to do there.  I’ll really only have my phone for the most part, and I’ll be staying in rural Mississippi for the most part so service will be iffy.  I’ll do my best.
