Pinch me - I must be dreaming!

Good Morning All!!

Oh. My. Goodness. It's the REUNION! Really, truly. It's actually happening.

Here's a little peek behind the curtain of what's going on here. At least from my point of view.

Harvey and Beloved stayed with me Wednesday night. It was great. We stayed up very late (for a school night) chatting and laughing and oh...just enjoying each other.

I had to be up at 5:00amish for a training class. THAT hurt! But, I got there, had a great class and headed back to HQ. They were just taking a bit of time to get situated and settle in. It cleared up and we headed out to the pool and just soaked up the sun. Of course, my flippin' phone just rang and rang and rang and rang. I SWEAR! You'd think I had some high ranking intellegence job, I'm so important.

When BW took the two pictures of Harvey and then I working on the laptop I was amazed at the strong family resemblance. Uncanny!!

And BW made lunch for us! Someone besides me cooked in my kitchen. What a treat. (and very yummy I may add.)

What a wonderful afternoon. I couldn't figure out what happened to my "drive", my go go go. It dawned on me that those hours sitting by the pool, laughing and talking with them were the first real "downtime" I've had in longer than you'd believe.

Johnny_Oh made it in safe and sound a little after midnight. :-) Tired, but just a hoot. An absolute sweetie. The four of us sat around talking, laughing, teasing until a little after 4:00 this morning. All I can say is I feel very old right now. Very old - but happy.

I've got some of my favorite people here In My Home. There is laughter and conversation. And it's just STARTING!! More are arriving through-out the day! And tomorrow brings LeeAnn and her hubby, and SarahK and Frank J. I wish I could explain it so that you all could share this feeling.

Today is finally here. The pork is roasting in the oven, just about ready for shredding and BBQ sauce. I'm getting ready to head to the store to pick up what we need for food today. I'm sipping a nice cup of coffee and just giggling. It may be chilly here today - but that won't slow anything down here!

Let's see - I leave here at about 3:30pm head to Milwaukee... catch the 6:30 flight out... (I know I'm counting on an awful lot going right aren't I!) get in at 10pm your time and then drive to your place...

piece of cake (let's hope I don't drop it!) And I'll probably need a sandwich when I get there *grin*
