Arkansas family, Connecticut family, Colorado family.

FAMILY.  It’s the secret glue that makes me tick.  It’s the well I go to over & over.  The flood of balloons Ash packed for my 50^th.  Hump Day phone gifs from my Bro.  Sis who travelled to Ireland to celebrate (& run) marathon #100.  Mom who daily shines a light.  Filimin lamp/orange & family’s spiritual warrior.

Folks I TREASURE and draw Mile 22 strength 😊

Manchester – DC – Chicago – Denver

Busy Christmas morning… but it all worked out.  Ash & Tom’s home 2:30 COLORADO time.

Comfort food Christmas.  LOVE, LOVED.  Homemade chicken pie.  ‘Gallon-size Ziploc of CHEESE’ mac n’ cheese.  AWESOME double/triple helping-size meal.  (Diet starts tomorrow.)

Year’s gift giving?  Southwest funds & new/improved Garmin for Ash & Tom (future 2020 Seattle/Portland adventures).  Pup’s first doggie sweater for Rowan O’Roark.  Plush toy for grandpup Marty.

And Dad?  Christmas Coupons.

Homemade meals (with all the fixin’s) & 2 airport drop-off/pick-ups.  PERFECT for the guy who has everything.  They’re right ya know.  My life IS full.  I want for nothing.

Merry Christmas to the BESTEST family!  I HEART y’all ❤️
