I had posted about my anxiety on visiting my family in another state.

Well, we went, stayed in a motel and it was ok.

It was nice to have our own space, but it was strange not staying with family. It was very much less stressful. However, my dad was very sick, so I did not get to spend as much time with him as I would have liked. My father's wife decided to change WHERE the party was going to be, from her home to my sister's, at the last minute.

That, and she was late getting her and my dad there. Everyone was there waiting on her to bring some of the main components of dinner. This was a week night and some of the kids had school the next day.

My sister had more complaints than I did, but they are a never ending thing.

So all in all, my girls and I had a good time, kept it short and sweet. Will do the same for the next visit!

So good news!!! yay!!!
