Hi Everyone,
I’m home in Tennessee today and here are three things that I wanted you to know:
- I like coming home to Tennessee. It gives me a great sense of family and appreciating what God has blessed me with. I spent Thanksgiving with my grandmother (on my mother’s side) and my aunties, uncles and cousins. It’s a fat girl weekend whereby I will be walking my butt off (as long as it’s not too cold outside) while I’m here.
- I hate traveling on Thanksgiving. Although there were no major delays or issues, I just hate traveling on Thanksgiving. I arrived late for dinner, but thankfully a dinner plate and some desserts were hidden away for me. Yes, I’m spoiled and I’m thankful that my family supports this weary traveler.
- I’m home because my dad has cancer. My goal is to gather as much knowledge, strength and support that I can to be here for the man I’m just starting to get to know. I’m capturing our time with photos and my desire to make sure that my dad knows that I forgive him for not being around and that I love him. I thought we would have had more time, but it was not in the cards, but I’m prayerful. He has a lot of children and at the moment I’m the only one who wants to have anything to do with him.
Those are my 3 things for this week and I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend. We’ll chat on Monday!
Traveling on Thanksgiving is way too stressful, it doesn’t help that my work doesn’t give me Black Friday off either. But glad you got to see the fam!

Very telling that you’re the only one who wants to be bothered with him. Maybe this will mark emotional healing for you both.

Hate to hear about the cancer, many prayers! Thanksgiving travel does suck, if isn’t the construction it’s the morons!
