    Default well...we're off to Dallas. Wish me luck...NO MORE SURGERY!

    Some of you know that I have some concerns about soem bone erosion on Q's forehead. So, we leave tomorrow at 6:30 for a 8:30 flight. I bought a carseat at a garage sale today for $5 so I can use it in Dallas and then ditch it! The rental car company charges $50 to rent a car seat...that is $10 more than I am paying to rent the car!!

    This trip is bittersweet for me. It always makes my tummy uneasy walking back through those hospital doors. So much pain and raw emotion happened within those walls. But...the chance to eat at the BBQ joint in the foor court makes up for that!

    I am scared to get bad news....but overjoyed to meet Pam and Keeson, Jen and Claire, Kerre and Jack, Samantha and Ashton (again!), and Leslie and Hayden. I promise to take some pics!!

    Ta Ta....I'll probably check back in once tonight before going to bed!
