Back in Atlanta

I have made it safely home to Atlanta. Nicki seemed to get better as days progressed. She’s still in pain, but she’s going to get better.
I did work while in Savannah, remotely. And when I wasn’t working, I was visiting friends and places that are home. I stopped at my pre-college place of employment and said hello to the only co-worker left there from my days. Caught up with her a bit with both my life, her life, and the life of the office. She introduced me to all her co-workers, and had to show me quickly to the boss. The boss said it looked like I hadn’t aged a bit in the 7 years I last worked there. However, I sure do feel it! Seeing the co-worker did me good. She reminded me of a tale of something my mother did for her family and how she always remember it. She said my mother would be proud of where I’m at.
That’s the thing with me. I always feel like I’ve let me mother down. I wish I knew why.
I also had dinner with Chris and Lindsey. It’s always great to see them. The are some of the best friends I have ever had. I’m so glad to have them in my life. I also had lunch with Melinda. I owed her a few minutes of my time while in Savannah.
I also spent time out at Wormsloe. I had never been out there while living in Savannah, because I had always heard it was a couple of rocks in the ground. However, I decided to finally check it out. When I stopped to pay my entry fee, I noticed there was a sign about a photography fee. Because I only had my Polaroid i1037, I was not charged a fee. Had I had my Fujifilm S5200 (which I left in Atlanta), I may have been charged it. I sent a message to Gennie about the fee, and she did some research. As a person who only uses her camera as a hobby, such a fee is discouraging.
On my way home today, I stopped briefly in Statesboro and Barnesville to take a few photos. I would like to go back to Barnesville to use my better camera. The town had a great photography feel to it.
Now that I am home, I have one little Graysie wanting me to hold her. She missed me while I was gone. I missed her, too, along with Scooter.
