My first full day has been a busy day of shopping with my sister. Something we enjoy doing together when I come for a visit. Usually I can't find anything that suits my fancy, but this time I did! Very unlike me to spend money on myself, unless of course it's a DVD! We even looked at shoes, and I almost bought a pair of cowboy boots. Kinda funny when you think of where I live. Plus the fact that although my friends in New Mexico say cowboy boots are very comfortable, I never cared to see for myself...until now. Who knows, maybe I'll be a cowgirl yet!
Tomorrow is another day with greater challenges than a fun day shopping. I guess it's a day of facing fears and speaking truth, sometimes not an easy thing to do. I miss my parents, and being back stirs up memories. Nothing remains the same.
My daddy and I loved to watch John Wayne movies, so I decided to watch Hondo tonight. I can still see him sitting in his chair, me on the floor. Sometimes we'd watch three movies in a row. For a long time he couldn't hear very well, but once he bought a pair of tv ears he was able to hear again. That made for happy times. I really miss him, and being here makes me miss him more.
Enough reminiscing tonight, or I'll be in crying again. At least they're happy tears!
