WE'RE HOOOOOOOME!!!!!
Well we made it back in one, uninjured piece. FIL isn't doing too well. He was admitted to the hospital Tuesday morning, so we stayed an extra day. We drove all day Thursday and OMG I'm about as tired as I could ever imagine.
We went to the beach on Monday, with both kids. Let me tell you.....do you remember the movie 'Summer Rental' with John Candy? We were that family. We had the dog and the kids and the uneven sand. It was pretty funny, but we got to our spot and set up camp for about 3 hours. It started storming so we had to leave, but I got a few shells, a sunburn and the kids had a BLAST! LT doesn't like the water, but BT had an absolute blast playing in the waves.
I got a ton of cool stuff from The DH's grandmother's house. Some old old old costume jewlery and some old old old kitchenware....and my CHINA CABINET!! YAY!!!! I've got the cabinet up in the dining room now and it's SOOOOOO perfect, she saved me about $1500! THANKYOUJEEZUS! (or should that be THANKYOUNANA!!?)
FIL doesn't have a ton of energy, hell he doesn't have any energy. They're trying to get him back to feeling a little better, but to do that he has to eat and drink and he doesn't want to do either. He did, however, keep telling us that he wanted to come to Atlanta to visit with us. He apologized to me for 'ruining' my 'vacation'...I explained that we came to see him, so it wasn't really a vacation. Then I told him if he wanted to repay me he had to get his strength back and come visit us. He says we have a deal. I'm cleaning my house, we better have a deal.
Well, I'm a little buzzed (we only had beer in the house to drink when we got back so damnit I had a couple) and I'm hungry and TIRED!!! So, I'm off to eat, then clean up the mess we made getting back. Hope everyone is having a great week and I'll be back soon. I just need some SLEEP!!!!!

Welcome home! Sending my well wishes you FIL's way! Glad you got to go to the beach! Sounds like a blast! I need to head that direction myself sometime!
Sounds like you had a decent time despite the FiL saddness. Congrats on the China Cabinet! Sleep well!

Yayyy, glad you made it home safely and with a china cabinet!! I inherited one of those, too, but do not have room for it in my current house, so it's in my mil's living room right now.
