Hope you are all doing well. I don't have a card to share today, but I can chat about my past weekend, if that's alright.
I flew to NY to attend my 20 yr. HS reunion. I was thinking that I was from a class of 275, but maybe it was around 225. I honestly didn't pay attention to the numbers in school...not any numbers...I am so bad at math. Yes, I still count on my fingers. I'd like to blame it on the school system, but I am sure that I had something to do with it. My son is 2 years ahead in Math...go figure. :)
so, 3 mini flights got me to NY, what was I thinking when I booked that?!? Went to my Dad's house (hugged and squeezed him) took a shower and went to the mixer. A band was playing. Ummmm LOUD! It was supposed to be playing outside, but it was raining, which drove them inside...ugh. So, here we were, trying to catch up on 20 years while screaming, nice. It was great seeing everyone, even worth geting a strained voice in the morning. I think that I recognized them all, except for one girl who I thought was someone esle (she didn't know that, don't tell her, k?) it was a good thing that it was loud at that point. so, we chatted and danced until, well, late.
The next day was our picnic. remember I mentioned the 200 something number in our class...we counted 20 classmates. uh huh, I know. there was more that said they were coming, and pulled a no show. we ate, in true cafeteria formation...in clicks. just weird! I did have a nice time though. We had fun looking through the yearbook and giggled all the way through...oh my that BIG Aqua Net hair! I was tempted to show up with big hair, but I chickened out.
Went out that night, not as much fun as the last.
The next day, I visited with family and walked through the mall with my Dad, My kids and I will be back in NY for 10 days, so I am saving most of my visiting time for then.
I wish I had some odd-ball stories to share, but not this time. I was glad that I went. Not sure if the poor turnout will affect future reunions, but my BFF from school and I aren't afraid to organize it next time. If that's what it takes, right?
I missed you all
*smooches*
"Such a gorgeous card! I love everything you do!
I never knew my birth flower! So glad to know now! It is either the aster or the morning glory!
