Class of '85

well, I'll be damned... this week has brought several things... some I'll even share! Talk about old home week... first Earl, then my old high school flame, Huggy...today brought Diane (who was older sis to my then-best-friend Tracey). Wow... we've all grown up. Remember, "up" is not the same as "old" in my world! Tonight my son will be home from college & we've a movie date!

I am so in love with my life today. Not only was something happening every day this last week, but next week getting packed. Gayle's b-day Mon, visiting Mom Tues, a little bit of time at home Weds & Thurs to work on my page for the upcoming "Tree of Life" book, then dinner @ Dave's Fri, Rick over for dinner & a movie Sat, and Sun is my (self-imposed) deadline for tax preparation ... go go go !!! And, by this time 4 weeks from now, I will be sitting in Boise, Idaho with a whole bunch of my online gal pals... Jean, Barbra, Gail, Pam, Cris, Jean, Cindy, Amy... I am psyched!!

Violet

the song was by Courtney Love's band Hole... Violet... I have not idea why it is called violet unless it is just one of the random words from the opening lyrics... oh well! So, update... I currently have 143 cards for sale @ the Bastrop Producers Market... I know because I had to sticker them with my Vendor number yesterday... 27 of those are NEW ADDITIONS that I made yesterday before going out. Lots of fun!! A quiet week is planned... just a board meeting in N Austin at a coffee shop...how could I NOT go?! And Janee Ward's "Stepping Through the Doorway" creativity workshop @ Pine Crone Labyrinth Retreat this Saturday & Sunday. I am expecting "The Toy" to arrive Wednesday so I am pretty sure what I will be doing all of Thursday & Friday evenings :-) Stay tuned.................

The Trip That Wasn't

We were taking 32 days to go to Portland (via family and friends in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Portland, New Mexico & Texas) and back, seeing several state and national parks (including Great Basin, Crater Lake, Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Wind Cave, and Palo Duro Canyon). On Day 1, a mere eleven miles south of the Arkansas state line, our truck broke down. We called Good Sam & they called Michael from A to Z Towing.  We spent most of 7/15 at Firestone. At 2:30pm they had a verdict, which was that the repairs were outside their scope of practice. We called Good Sam & they again called Michael from A to Z Towing, who towed us to the shop attached to the wrecker company, EZ Automotive. As the shop was closed until Monday, Michael called the owner. After explaining our dilemma permission was given to bring our camper as well as the truck. Michael set our camper down in the parking lot and ran an extension cord so we had power. We also had running water. Thankfull
