Hours away...

Well, moving day is almost here. Less than 12 hours now. Saying good-bye has been very hard, harder than I thought it would be (especially with Traci and Angi). But it's not forever, I will be visiting and other than the people at work I'll see everyone just as much as I always have. Or more in the case of my niece, she says I don't visit often now. :)

Thanks for all of the well wishes. We'll be offline for a couple of days. Yikes!! The thought of not having connectivity is just scary!! Talk to all of you soon!

Congratulations Steve & Marci!!

We had a great time at the wedding and Tom and I wish you the best. Have a great honeymoon!

Less than a week.....I'm sorry what??

Yes, that's right, it's less than a week till moving day. Ugh!! I swear we just looked at houses the other day. I realize that time stood still when I was in Philadelphia but now everything is here and things need to be done!!! Deep breath, just take a drink, I mean breath.

Landed just before the storm last night, thank god. Went into work this morning, trying to find a dress for the wedding, rehearsal tonight, wedding tomorrow, final packing, final office stuff, closing, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! I think I may just have reached my limit.

And to top it all off I'm missing the scrapbook weekend for all of this!! Have fun ladies. And Dana I hope you're winning big in Vegas!! I think I'll go lie down now.

Philadelphia

So I'm in Philadelphia on business. Haven't been all that impressed with the city but honestly I've only left the hotel twice since I got here on Friday. Pretty sad. Long work days and grumpy attendees is how I live my life. Fortunately I have been able to see the t.v. shows that are important. :)

Franklin is at home doing a wonderful job of packing up the house. I don't anticipate having to go home and do much, he's such a good hubby! I can't believe we move a week from tomorrow, time just flies by!!

Congratulations Katie & Christian!

I hope you and Christian are as happy as Tom and I! I truly wish I could have been there today, but unfortunately I had to be in Philadelphia. :(

Have a great honeymoon!!

Bittersweet

Tom had yet another "First" the other day. He bought a lottery ticket for the first time ever. Yes, I know, he's been sheltered. Not that it matters anymore anyway, I just found out someone in New Jersey won the entire jackpot. Good for them, sad for us. :(

It's okay Tom, you don't win every time you play. :)

Pure Romance

Last night Dana and I had a Pure Romance party. There was lots of new stuff and I think we all had a pretty good time! The lady who did the party was bad, I mean bad. The party and her both moved very slowly because of it. Dana and I could do a way better time selling the stuff than she did! Oh well, I think all of us who went away with silver bags filled with goodies didn't mind too much. ;)

Wild Weekend!!

This past Saturday was one that doesn't happen very often. I had two, yes two, bachelorette parties to attend. Some people told me to skip one, it would take too long to get between the two (one was in Southgate the other in Sterling Heights) but I didn't listen to them. I dragged Dana along and we had a wild time!!!

The night started at Katie's party. I was really happy to see her since I had missed her bridal shower and I can't go to her wedding (damn business trip). We were given name tags when we got there, but they weren't for our real names. We were given porn star names for the evening! And if we called someone by their real name we had to wear a flashing penis head band. My name was Angel Wet and Dana was Bambi Cummings. I never had to wear it but I did nail people who messed up the whole time I was with them!! It was a very fun game. After a drink and a shot we headed to Red Robin where we made the family environment not so family. A group of girls walking in with porn star name tags and penis straws, I don't think that happens very often. We did manage to embarass two waiters and created a lot of noise. All in all a good time.

After dinner Dana and I headed to Sterling Heights for Marci's party. As we were walking in I said someone smelled good and then ran into a guy in the kitchen and said "Oh, it must be you." Totally didn't give the guy another thought. Turns out he was the stripper!!! Needless to say we got there just in time!! After an AWESOME performance by the stripper and very good lap dances for both Dana and I, we headed to the Shelby Roadhouse. Dancing, drinking and puking (in Marci's case) concluded a fabulous end to a wild Saturday.

And to add some more fun, we text messaged Chuck!!

What really sucked was waking up on Sunday feeling like I had a hangover when I only had 3 drinks all night!!! Guess I'm getting to old to go to bed at 3:30am!!!

Congratulations to Katie and Christian! May this Saturday be the happiest day of your life.

Congratulations to Marci and Steve! May your day be the happiest day of your life. I'll be there celebrating with you a week from Saturday!!!

Beautiful Naples Florida

Tom and I just got back from a wonderful vacation in Florida. With all the craziness in our lives right now we really needed to get away. And who knows when we'll get to go away again.

We saw lots of people in bathing suits way too small for them. In fact Tom has now asked for a Speedo for Christmas. :)

After 4 days laying by the pool we've come back to the harsh reality of home. And work. And packing. Ugh!
