The past few days since my trip have been so great... so great in fact I just have not had time to get on the blog..
On Wednesday, out of the blue, one of my best friends from high school, Duke Taylor, who I haven't seen since we walked off the graduation field 12 years ago, called out of the blue at 9pm and said that he was in town to see his sister and niece... His plans of going to a drum corp. show were messed up because of the rain....
So.. He came over and we went to have a late night snack at Denny's..... 100 hours later at 4 am.... we had caught up from the past 12 years and decided to leave... I was so tired... and I had a meeting a 9... Ughhhhh...
I was so ready to go to bed the next night when Duke called again and said that another one of our high school friends, who still lives here, but I haven't seen since school, wanted to get together for dinner... After dinner we headed back to my house.... We ended up looking at old year books and laughing at how ridiculous my hair looked in every single picture.... It was 3 am before we ended the walk down memory lane.... It was soooooooo good to see them and just catch on the past 12 years... Collectively we had all been through quite a bit.... But it was literally like i had just seen them last week!
Today... I again got to reunite with another great friend of mine... Karen Rampey.... She was my former boss when I worked at the Sleep Inn hotel in Travelers Rest.... I haven't seen her in 8 years... We had lunch today in Greer.... started at 11... left 2.... She is the greatest!!!! I had my camera, but forgot to get a pic of Karen... but I did remember to snap one of me, Duke, and Riketah last night.... What a great couple of days!!!
Then.... as if I had not had enough fun, today was "Cow Appreciation Day" at Chick-Fil-A.... If you didn't go... YOU MISSED OUT!!!!! All you had to do was dress in a cow costume and they would give you a free meal...
Me, Johnnie-Lynn, Taylor, and Sophie all dressed up and headed over... We all ate for FREE!!!! It was great!!!! Lots of people were there in the most creative cow costumes!!!
Matt didn't get to go because he is a bit under the weather.... I brought him some food home but he didn't get until he posed with the cow hat.
I will be headed to the beach on Sunday... Stay tuned for some great stories I am sure... Maybe I will do a Florida prize..... What do ya think???

Well it is about time. Glad to see you are reunited with your blog.
What do I think. Hhmm... I think you are blessed beyond what you know. May it grow-- sm
Can we say... UGGGHHH... take that picture down or do some P-H-O-T-O shopping. But that's okay because Riketah's hair looks like a squirrel jumped on top of her head after falling from a branch...and she was trying to swatt it off.
[now see... did I _have_ to "go" there?]
heee heee. I know she won't read this, so I feel immune to any retaliation [deep sigh]. But Alas, I am borrowing this picture from your BLOG.
12 years. I feel horrible. What kinda' friend am I that I would wait 12 years. [tiger wood tears]
