After a week it was time to get Layne. Our original plan was to meet in Texarkana. Things never go as planned. My pawpaw died just after midnight on Friday morning. I had to pack the other boys up and head to Rison early Saturday morning. There was only a graveside service Saturday afternoon at 4:00. My aunts sang Amazing Grace and the service was short. I like it better that way.

After unexpectedly having to be gone the whole weekend, you can only imagine what my house looks like. The laundry is piled high. Unfortunately that is what I will be doing tonight. Washing and cleaning...my two least favorite things to do.

Anyway, I am glad that is all over with. It is time to get ready for another week of school.
