Hot enough for you?

In the 100's here in NJ, but at least we didn't have the debilitating storms that hit Maryland...the flooding in Florida, the fires in Colorado...

Fun of late has included Marissa's graduation party, Margie's annual barbecue party, the Contact Recommissioning picnic, working a table at the Whitesbog Blueberry Festival for RSVP, lunch with Conni and Sandy, lunch with Linda and Gee Gee, several movies and dancing with Tom, and HR Block classes to prepare for the IRS ceritification test. (yes it was fun!)

We're looking forward to spending the 4th of July with Jill and Mike and hearing all about the cruise and the birthday celebration. Then Teri (of Hawaii and onto VA beach fame, the surfing pole dancer!) is coming to Prospectors to dance with us on Friday. Whoo hoo! And we can't wait to hook up with Doreen and George at the Jamboree in the Hills!

Busy day!

What a full day! First Tom and I drove to his eye appointment. They were missing a machine so they didn't take his copay ( I wonder if they are charging the insurance the whole thing). Then we stopped at Barnes and Noble to see what help I could get with my Nook and it turns out my version is too ancient for classes on it and I am going to have to suffer. But...I did download the free Friday book while I was there.
So then we went to the gym. Then we went to lunch. Then we went to the Eastampton Seniors special thing at Russos. Then we went to the movies but the time had changed and also Tom noticed my vehicle inspection sticker had expired two months ago, so I went and got it renewed. Then I picked up Tom and we went to see The Avengers which he really enjoyed. There was a big storm and we turned off all the electronic stuff until it was time to go dancing at Prospectors. Now we're home watching 13 going on 30. I like it all over again. :-)
Tomorrow is the RSVP tabling thing at the White Bogs Blueberry Festival for RSVP and then Margie's party. :-) Fun!

Retirement Breakfast

I had the opportunity to attend this year's DEA Retirement Breakfast. So many friends...so little time!
I, of course, took photos of all the retirees and anyone else I could grab quickly. (But not quickly enough, because my breakfast was sorta swept away by enthusiastic cleaner uppers at the end! )

My best wishes for a wonderful retirement to all appropriate takers!

June 17...a day to remember

Our mother died on this day 46 years ago and we still miss her so much. It's Father's Day this year, and such an especially sad one with no Jeff to celebrate it with.












 My good friend Terri died on this day, too, two years ago, after a courageous battle with ovarian cancer.

 

I am thinking of all of you...my family and friends....and hoping we all enjoy life to its fullest every day....and cherish each other.

CMA Fest 2012 !

We had a lot of fun at the Nashville, TN "Fan Fair" this year. Having won the trip as a sweepstakes prize made it even more dear. Thanks to Chevy for sponsoring the sweepstakes and Lara Henley and all our friends at CMA for putting it together! <3

Nashville!

The good news: We made it safely to our hotel.
Bad news: Our four day shuttle transportation pass to downtown Nashville doesn't start until tomorrow and we can't get a shuttle, bus, or car for today. (Well, a taxi drive is a possibility....but for $40 one way we're thinkng tomorrow is soon enough....!)
Good news: We can always watch the CMT Awards show on tv....Maybe they're having it onscreen at the Gaylord Opry hotel. That will be fun. :-)

We're so excited about being here for the CMA Fest! (We're a member of the country club, you know! :-)
