the month of May

Well the month started off easy enough, and I took a week off work to go back to Missouri and help Mom with some things around her place that needed to be done, plus play chauffeur to her doctor's appointments. It was a nice week there, except for the more-than-needed rain that permeated the week. Still, it was great to be able to be there for Mother's Day and her birthday before I headed back to Phoenix.
Then, just over a week later, Jim, Jule, and Grace came to Phoenix to pay a visit, as Julie had a conference here. We had a nice weekend that included a off-road tour of the desert in a Hummer, and then a relaxing Sunday night at a free concert in the local park. As they left on Wednesday, I decided to relax during the rest of my vacation week - I did not even go back to the Ozarks like I have for the past 14 years! It was nice to stay home and rest, though, and I enjoyed another Sunday night concert in the park with friends.
