K-1945 GPS system

The alarm blared at 3:30 a.m. this morning... should anyone really be up at this hour after not hitting the pillow until after 12?? I think not... but I am. Gotta pick up the boy and mom by 4:30 to catch a 6 am flight. 

This after a week of turmoil and uncertainty if I was even going to be allowed to fly (and avoid another hospital stint due to a recurring infection). Huge relief when dr called and said "I should be ok if I stay on the antibiotics." Good enough for me - off to Michigan I go...

3.5 hours later and we hit the ground, and headed for our car at Avis - who proceeded to try and upsell us on everything under the sun. A cute, white Pontiac G6 is ours for the next 10 days. Avis offered a GPS system, but after finding out adding a second driver would cost us $11 per day, we decided we knew our way around enough to make do. Mom assured me she knew the way... HA - insert the newest GPS system of K-1945. This would be my mom. Instead of a pleasant "Turn right in .5 miles", I got "slow... i think this might be the street - um... not sure... turn and let's see... nope - turn around." next street - same thing.. next-yep - another 180 headed our way. It was hilarious. 

Thankful for family time, laughter and vacations together. The rest of the fam shows up later this week for my gram's 90th birthday. Can't wait - it's been 15 years since I've seen most of them... Should be a riot!
