Well, it’s a done deal! The stepdaughter is psyched to come up the weekend of the 18th!
I guess my secret ploy worked: I tantalized her with cigars!
I’m really stressed right now for myself. In moments we’ll be off to NJ on Bucket List trip #1–and the special walking shoes I bought just for the purpose are rubbing on the top of my foot where it meets the ankle.
I got the chafing heel problem solved, but I just can’t commit to a day at the amusement pier with them.
So I’ll just go with my old Toms and hope that the soles don’t crack in half!

Thanks, you guys!
Just 1 hour and 51 minutes and we’ll be there!
The tension is gone, and the road trip is turning out to be fun. We’re finally all gabbed out, and now we’re listening to an audiobook.
After the rest stop I’ll take a snooze.

Duct tape. The inevitable solution.
I put duct tape on my hot spots and it works like a charm. Of course, normal people look at me like I'm insane with patches of silver tape on my feet but, no blisters!

We just arrived for the carriage ride. The attendant woman was snippy and condescending to me, and in an instant I snapped and got full of wild rage!
But I didn’t jump back there and strangle her—I just backed up and silently mouthed the word “BITCH!!!” with all my might to my younger daughter. She gets me. She yes-yessed me and smiled.
Now we’re on our way. The Lord blessed my granddaughter big time—we were assigned to a carriage with deep purple seats! She’s nuts about purple!
I’m in a fine mood now. The tour is interesting. And next is dinner!

The day is no longer grand. The snapper soup restaurant was beyond jammed, and they knew nothing of my reservation. In 20 minutes of wai, my daughter couldn’t even find a place to park!
And now it looks like my other daughter is in the middle of a miscarriage.
We’re headed to the Urgent Care clinic.
Puts the disappointment of dinner way into perspective.
