Whew!!

We are home after an eleven day trip to Ohio. Let me just say that we had fun but the trip was 2 days longer than planned and we didn't sleep in the same place two nights in a row. Evelyn was a trooper and once again amazed us at how well she travels. I was the one shouting out of the car windows and begging for a fuel stop about 2 hours before we got home- Evelyn? she said "Mama it is night time could you please quiet down?" Then, Les kept driving past open gas stations and I finally promised that the next one he passed would mean that either: a) I was going to do a Bruce Willis style action roll right out of that infernal machine b) I was going to grab him and do a full-on choke slam on him when he did stop or c) I was just going to sit there and weep until we stopped, let me just say that he pulled in to a station in about 3.6 seconds after my announcement, averting what is known in certain circles as "A Michal Hissy". Also may I ask, why is it that the two people travelling with me do things such as order chili dogs while driving , drink chocolate milk from a faulty spill proof cup, and indulge in powdered sugar coated goodies and I am the only one who looks like a Stained Road Troll from Hell when we get out of the car? How is that possible?
Pictures tomorrow, for I am off to find my orange kitty and crawl into my very own bed in my very own room.
