Thelma and Louise Hit The Road

In less than a year and a half, Wishy will be going to college…sitting in a classroom, talking to professors, living in a dorm, partying with other freshman…no don’t tell me that!!! She still has a little while to go before she is off, but the question now is… Where will you be going Wishy? What are you looking for in a school and will that same school be looking for you? Any college will be lucky to get her… I am her mother and I know these things.

So we are ready for our Thelma and Louise trip…(did this with Chels)…where we schedule college tours, map out a route and hit the road for a few days. Two chicks heading down the highway… missing exits, singing at the top our lungs, eating fast food, and staying wherever we find a vacancy. We don’t plan too much ahead…we want to be able to change things as we go. We’re a couple of chicks remember and chicks do that.

We will make PaulA crazy because we won’t do it right. PaulA is a planner from way back…and would make sure there was a nice restaurant at the end of every day. But from experience with Chels…I know we will be too tired and just want to get in the room. Dinner from the vending machine is definitely not PaulA style. Some hotels offer chocolate chips cookies at the front desk …which can be a gourmet meal.

I look so forward to spending time with Bri on our Thelma and Louis trip…two chicks together on the open road. Okay…I’ll be realistic… one chick and one ole mother hen.
