I'm home in Texas! Wooooot! The drive wasn't as bad as I thought. It was about 1,000 miles. I only stopped three time total to pee/put gas in the car. hehe. I DO have a bladder of steel! Anyways, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm safe and at home.
Missouri was such a beautiful state to drive through. Oh my goodness it was beautiiifulll!
Stopped in Tulsa overnight on Thursday...then drove to McKinney, Texas to spend time with Frank. Poor thing -- he had stayed up for 48 hours working. He slept for about 20 hours straight! We watched a movie and a couple of shows on TV, had really good flatbread pizza, and he showed me his new toy:
Dodge Challenger SRT 80. It's a beauty.....!
I love his dogs...Rocco and Spencer - Chocolate Labs!
Anyways, I stopped by Allen Premium Outlets (3 exits away from his home) and got a new Coach bag, passport holder, and wallet. I'm Coach'd out for the year!
Got home at around 6PM or so....stopped at Dad's store and saw him and my brother. It was the first time in my life that I can remember him opening his arms for a hug. He was soo happy to see me. My dad is not the emotional type. For a grown Asian, traditional-minded man -- it was a sight to see!
Then went to see mom at her store....the newest on Hulen. She was quite happy to see me as well.
Finally, went to the original store near Ridgemar to see my Aunt and Cousin. :) I decided to give my newly purchased Coach wristlet to Yvette. :) She loved it. We then proceeded to go shopping at Rosss!!!!! (Ross doesn't exist in Michigan!) I got a new summer dress and 4 pint glasses that have the "Cowboys" and their star emblem on them. :)
This morning -- with the help of my brother and grandmother -- we took everything out of the car. Wow. I DO have a lot of things with me. I'm not sure how i'll be able to take everything to Indiana, but I have to. LOL.
Anyways....such a long and random post....
I love Texas...and I'm so glad I'm back -- even if it is for a week!
I leave for Indiana next Sunday! ahhhh!!

P.S. I hope everyone who went on the South Africa trip is safe! (Ashleigh, Dani, Jessica, Chris R., Matt and Mrs. W -- oh and the Ph.D. students. :) )
