GETTING READY TO GO WEST!!

OK, I admit I have been very remiss about keeping the blog up to date. I have a semi-good reason -- we are leaving tomorrow to drive out West. The genius, Rufus, and I will trek across the country, sight-seeing along the way and ending up in Phoenix to see Ashley and family.


Last week the sisters and I spent our night at Center Hill Lake together. This is an annual affair with each one of us supplying a meal. We had a great time getting caught up on our news and generally praising ourselves for living this long. I learned from MA that she knew from years ago one of the ladies in my bridge club (the five karat diamond one).

So today I went to bridge club and told the lady and of course, she remembered MA. She was very surprised to learn that we were sisters. But then she said that now that she knew she could see the resemblance. Lucky you, MA!

I've also been busy helping to plan our high school birthday bash to be held in July. We have decided on two nights instead of one and I offered our club for the first night. They took me up on it and I've had to go round and round trying to get it just right. Remember the time I spent so much money having my bridge club there? Well, I have become quite the bargainer and keep telling them to cut it down -- cut it down. I think we are finally there. I so look forward to seeing everyone again.

Since I have done very little packing, and it's almost 3:00, I must cut this short and get to it.

I'll try to send pictures along the way.
