Home.

The kids and I got home last night.

I'm working today, so there's little time to post. Little time to unpack. But it's good to be home.

We had an uneventful trip home. Lots of movies in the car - thank goodness for a power converter for the laptop. That's a lifesaver.

I decided to go to the reunion. Sent my check in - so now that I've spent the money, I'm going. Discovered a myspace page for our class... and have had fun seeing pictures of a few of my old friends. Funny how old they all look. Well, except for one friend - she looks fabulous. But she was a dancer, so that doesn't count. Dancers have that lithe thing going for them. I always wanted to be lithe.

I've got more pictures to post from our week in Astoria... maybe I'll get them up tomorrow... too busy today with work and a show opening for an artist friend tonight... that'll be nice. I'll do anything for free appetizers.

Cheers, friends. Have a lovely weekend.

  1. Glad you are home safe and sound.
    It does always seem like a lot of work to get things back to normal after a trip!

    How fun that your class reunion has a Myspace page so you can be prepared :0)
    My 20th reunion is only two years from now. I went to the tenth, not sure if I'll go to the 20th.

Happy Birthday Cathy! , originally uploaded by Pink Paper Peppermints . All of these sweet bloggy friends threw me a cyber-birthday party! How fun is that? Thank you, dear friends. I am touched. It's really just what I needed today. Sweet Tanya even made me a cake. If you want to follow the party around cyber-space, you can go to Melissa's blog to see everyone who is participating.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
