Home Again!

Back in McDonough to a empty house!
I thoroughly enjoyed my short trip "home." I got to spend some quality time with G-Pa Sheneman, my dad. He is having a difficult time with some ongoing pain in his side that radiates to the middle of his back. I met he and my brother-in-law at the pain management doctor Tuesday when I got to town. The doctor seems to think it is age related based on the curvature in his spine and barrel chest that have put undue stress on his ribs and rib muscles. He gave him a muscle relaxer and is putting him in a "corset" to put pressure on his ribs and to help him maintain better posture.
My nephew fancies himself a singer, when he's not selling insurance. He was playing at Wild Wings Tuesday night so I went there with my baby sister, brother-in-law, niece, and a few others to listen to him. It didn't hurt they had 1/2 price wings and we ate more than our fair share. Matt can play and sing and I always enjoy listening to him.
Yesterday, Pops and I ran some errands and basically just hung out at his house. He enjoys talking and I enjoy listening. He has some awesome stories from his "war" years in the service and I never get tired of hearing them. Nowadays, like most of the rest of us...he laments about the state of the nation and where it is headed. We agree that Obama is not the right choice.
Last night was back at the sister's for vegetable soup and salad and to catch the end of the Obama "waste of money" infomercial, before the end of the World Series. I caught breakfast this morning with my little sister and two nephews before stopping by Pops and getting on the road.
Tomorrow Stacey, Joey and the grandkids come to town for the Fall Festival at our church and to spend the weekend with us. It's Georgia vs. Florida Saturday, so I know where Joey, Trey, and I will be for the better part of the day
It's good to be home and back with my Debbie!
