So on Wednesday July 10th I took a leave of absence for personal reasons concerning my mental health (THANK YOU BLITZ FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!!!!!) which in an amazing turn of events ended up being a vacation instead.

My Mom, Sister and I traveled from Illinois to Southern Pines NC where I lived as a child, and we did some sight seeing, went to the NC zoo and went to Ocean Isle Beach.

On the way back to Illinois we stopped in Kentucky and briefly visited Keeneland and Churchill Downs so long story short I've been gone a little over a week and it was just what I needed for the most part, and I'm back now :)  

Welcome back sangre!

Glad you got some much needed R&R!

Welcome back!

I actually have friends in Southern Pines, I used to live in Fayetteville!
