Cab at 4:30a.
While waiting outside, I stopped for a moment and realized it was Christmas time!
Slept on my flights.
Of course I was able to wake up as we started the initial decent into RSW. Allowing me time to fully awake and prepare to take in the final approach – my moments of serenity.
As I have mentioned before – the last 12 minutes of the approach into Ft Myers are my favorite. I always get a window seat on the right hand side of the plane. It allows me to see my islands.
And my favorite island – Upper Captiva. It is my own personal Utopia. Some day, I will vacation there again.
There is just something about this view – it’s home.
I enjoy my final moments of peace.. and then the family obligations ensue.
While waiting for my bags – I caught a glimpse of this…
Only in Southwest Florida!
Moments after getting into my rental car… the phone rang. The family gift exchange saga is in full swing! AGH!!!!
Got home and saw mom and Rizon.
This is my first trip home since Madison passed away.
Mom and I headed out to do my Christmas shopping. Nothing better than waiting til the last minute!
We spent the rest of the day shopping.
Then made salads and had dinner with dad.
Around 9pm I drove into Ft Myers – the truck had parked and was doing a partial set. I wanted to get my hard drive copied to the Duet so I could get a jump start on my day tomorrow. It takes about an hour – and that was not an hour I could afford tomorrow.
Got back home around 11:30.
Went to bed soon after. I’ve had about 5 hours of sleep in the past 40 hours.
First time sleeping out in my room without Madison.
