I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Oh, how I wanted to go with Carla and Paulette to have lunch with you, but I couldn't get the day off ... it's so hard to get a day off in summer. I was wondering how the mini-get-together went, knowing I had met all of you already made me feel like I was there in spirit at least. ... but I wanted to be there in person instead of here, doing AZ briefs and the business pages and the stocks pages, etc.
I can't wait til Frankenmuth! Don't know where the money's coming from, but at least now I have $55 more a week to think about.

Cedar Point !!I lived about 10 minutes from there after I graduated from High School in Marblehead. My first apartment with a girlfriend.. ahhh mmmmm the memories, don't think I slept for 2 years. I haven't been to Cedar Point in over 20 years. How I would love to ride the rides, well not the roller coasters. Have lots of fun.

Margo, I know just what you are talking about. I got meet them and I am still feeling the love and the excitement from that. I get to meet Pat and Floyd and Brenda a week from Saturday and I can't wait on that either. I am meeting a bunch of my IN board peeps and that is so exciting too.
I am in total awe of how close Paulette and I live to each other. We made a promise to keep in contact and to meet for lunch, shopping or whatever! To think that we were this close and didn't even know it. lol What a waste of time.
Carla did my hair too since she didn't like the way it was cut the last time. I told her I only paid 2.99 for it and I guess it is true that you get what you pay for. lol
Now I am going to have to meet you, sister Margo! I am just waiting for that to happen. Oh heck!!! I want to meet EVERYONE!!!!
I thought that I had my ears ringing~that must have been when you guys were talking about me. lol Just as long as no secrets were revealed~of what am I saying~everyone here knows my secrets already! lol
I am sending lots of love and ginormous hugs to you!
