Home

So, I'm in Atlanta. I guess I'll go back a few weeks to explain why. 

You may have noticed that I have been a little MIA around here. I haven't posted much, and when I have, they've been "fluffy," not talking about what's really going on in my life. Well, if you're new here, my mom was diagnosed with thyroid cancer last summer. In the past few weeks, she has started preparing for her yearly scan/treatment. At the same time, she got sick and it's only gotten worse and worse. I have just been really sad lately that I wasn't able to be there for her and take care of her.

I was at work yesterday morning when I found out that she had gotten much worse. So I left work and Doug booked me a flight while I drove home to pack. Three hours later, I landed in Phoenix when I found out that they were taking her from Urgent Care to the ER in an ambulance. I had never been more thankful to be going home. 

So now I'm here and working on getting her healthy again! I bought a one-way ticket, so I have no clue when I'll be back in Cali. It all depends on which kind of treatment they decide on. I really miss my sweet hubby and furbabies, but it sure does feel good to be home sweet home :)
