Hooray for Facebook!

We didn't get to Jessica's wedding last month, but now, thanks to her Facebook album posting, we were able to share  the beautiful experience. Thanks, Jessica!

In other Facebook news, I've been busy adding old photos to the "Everything I Know I Learned in Fifth Grade" group. I enjoy the comments from the now grown-up former fifth graders!

Next week I get to see Gee Gee Otto again. I am so looking forward to it. There's a whole Piscataway High School reunion of sorts coming up in June, too, but, unfortunately I have to miss it; we'll still be in Nashville for the CMA Music Fest. The good news is, it's not a conflict with the XTU concert this year, so we get to go to both. :-)

May is just around the corner (happy birthday to Zoe May!). The years just go faster and faster, don't they?

Jessicas Wedding

Jessicas Wedding

Tax season is almost over....no fooling!

We were delighted to have Jeff, Alex, Jackson, and Nathan with us for a short visit Tuesday/Wednesday.

They came in a rain-stormy day, but our Philadelphia touring weather was sunny and comfortable. How fun to revisit historic Philadelphia (well, I have done it 27 times with classes before....) with some English folk who knew little of our American Revolution history! We left some areas untouched, and have promised to return for more in the future.

The lack of ice cream for breakfast was, I hope, adequately compensated with the chocolate bunny substitute.....

On a sad note, I learned that Janice Lilley Fisher passed away last Saturday. Losing touch with friends of yesteryear is something I hope to remedy. Facebook has been helping with that, and I am inspired now to redouble my efforts.

Still raining.....

Yesterday on the way home from Contact, I stopped in at an Expo at Burlington County College. It was called "Body, Mind & Bottom Line: 2010 Expo" and was wonderful!Besides all the interesting exhibitors, there were information packed seminars. I loved Elsie Kerns and Kathy Milano who spoke at the "How to Survive Your Own Personal Tsunami:Dealing with Life's Crises" seminar moderated by Barry Lefkowitz. I didn't win any of the door prizes of the event, but I had the pleasure of being Elsie's "guinea pig" in front of the group (and she said really nice things about me (from my aura!) AND I bumped into former student Tyler Seville, who attends the College and was helping out. He looked great!
After a brief power nap at home, I went dancing at Sugarfootin' Sunday at Prospectors and had a lot of fun, as usual!
     My dentist appointment for today got canceled, so I had a nice day off. I am looking forward to lunch with Sandy Wednesday and possible Brunch Group get together (for dinner!) soon.

Spring isn't MARCHing in that fast............

I have been suffering from my first official cold in ages, but I am persevering! (Thanks goodness for Tom and his catering to me with pills and snuggies and TLC!)

Highlighting the last week or so were two social events: lunch with Gee Gee and lunch and seeing the show "Respect" with Jill and Dina and the whole female side of the brunch crowd.

Lunch with Gee Gee was in Princeton and we talked and ate and caught up for four hours!

We had lunch at La Fourno before the show.

       Al, the owner, and Marco, our super waiter, were wonderful...as was the delicious meal!










We enjoyed and highly recommend both La Fourno and "Respect" !

Meanwhile, tax season goes on.....

In the musical good news department, the XTU is not in conflict with our CMA Fest trip in June this year, so we get to attend both. Yay! And the Jamboree in the Hills line-up is getting longer, so that's good too.(Although that one is a conflict with Sue's pool party. Sorry, Sue! We will be thinking of you all!)

Oops! Time to get to work! Hasta luego, mi amigos!

And the snow falls on..............................

Given the chance to turn today into a snow day for H&R Block, I did. We are not as piled upon as in
the last two storms, and hopefully things will clear up quickly. I am hoping to get to both lunch with Gee Gee on Saturday and the Philadelphia lunch and show with the Commans and the Philly crowd on Sunday, so ....let the sun shine! (maybe after 1 p.m.)

Our Thursday night book club was postponed. We may be doing Edgar Sawtelle and The Necklace as one. Hmm.....

Delran (and many many other) schools were closed today. I wonder how many snow days there have been so far? What a winter!

Drive safely!

Back to work and the roads were clear but we are hearing news of more snow Tuesday night into Wednesday. Oy! Enough already!
Cowboy Kenn had this psa posted on his site and I found it well worth passing on:
