When I finally calmed down I realised it was only a total of about three days, and it's not exactly like we're visiting a wasteland with no services (grocery stores, drug stores, etc).  Plus, a whopping casino hotel.  Not cheap, but not without safety nets, as it were.  And the fridge is more than Everett-friendly until my return.

Only hurdle left:  getting along with Anna during the whole.  I think we will.  I just gotta be calm.  The main issue is how she'll no doubt want to spend a lot of time with Mom, and Mom and I by nature, don't.  I'll be more attentive this time, obviously, but even Everett said, "Yeah, Dad, that's just not how you and Grandma are."  From the mouths of babes.

If anything, I'll have the need to put my feet up in relative peace behind my desire to head back to the hotel whenever the opportunity affords.

Travel prayers appreciated, and thanked for ahead of time.

Except for slap-dash moments at the communal computer at Mom's joint, -- wait, she has a computer and internet connection, how could I forget? -- , I'll be a bit off the radar till Sunday pm.  Please pray, also, that my rental Toyota doesn't want to imitate my long-lost original Kia engine right around the spot me and Everett spent a cold, snowy afternoon 1.25 years ago.  Ah, cold memories.
