"Hello" & ...Scandinavian Fantasi is finished

Talk about a lazy day. I didn't get up till after 11, and only, just about 15 mins. ago, got out of my night shirt.

I don't feel worth a poop! Night before last, I went to bed with a sore throat, and feeling stuffy. Yesterday morning, I woke up feeling like every oraface in my head was stuffed full of cotton! I don't know that I've ever been so blocked up, but can't seem to stop blowing. It's amazing the amount of SNOT the human body can produce!!!! lol I just know that I don't like it. Then, last night, we spent close to 4 hours roaming all over the fair grounds. By the time we left around 11, I was feeling like I had been run over by one of the monster tractors, or trucks, that had been showing their stuff at the fair tractor/truck pull, earlier in the evening. Luckily enough, I did sleep pretty good. This morning, I still can't seem to stop blowing my nose. I'm not sure that the benedryl, or sudafed did any good. I just know that it makes you feel miserable. I feel like every inch of my bod, has been beat on with a hammer.

Well, I got the final two chapter of
Scandinavian Fantasi added. I appologize that it all didn't get added in a timely manor. I wasn't sure, even from the beginning, whether to post a few chapters at a time, or get them all posted, before letting everyone know, so that it could be read straight through, without the delay between chapters. I do hope that you've enjoyed it though, and hope you'll feel free to tell everyone you know about it. Hopefully, they'll enjoy it too.

Well, we're headed for landon's later. Moriah will come back home tonight, for a few days, till she heads back to work next weekend. I'm not sure when we're going to leave. As i mentioned, I just got dressed not long ago, and Lee is still in his robe...lol We're gonna do some supper while we're there, but not sure yet what Landon's is gonna put together. Something with hamburger, I think.

I guess I'll let ya go. I'm sure I'll be on when we get back from landon's later. Hope you all have enjoyed the book. I'm looking forward to you comments on it.

Talk to you all soon!

Much love,
Lev

Droppin' in for a quick "HI"

Just a quick note to say "HI". I'm heading out to Landon's to pick up him and the kids, and Moriah, then we're headed to the Boone County Fair, which is located only about 1 mile from our house. At night, we can hear the noise of the fair from our yard. http://www.boonecountyfairgrounds.com/ It will be over about 11. We will be meeting Lee there when he gets off work a little after 7.

Wanted to let you know too, that I've added 2 more chapters to the
Scandinavian Fantasi Hope you'll all drop in for the latest added chapters..and as usual, hope you're enjoying it.

Well...will head out for now, but I'm sure I'll be back later this evening. Hope you have all had a wonderful day, and a great beginning to your weekend!

A quick "HI"

Hello!

Well, it's a little after midnight, so I guess I'll have to say "Goodmorning!" I can't stay up much longer. I'm already yawning, and can't seem to stop. It was rather late when we got home...later than usual. Lee and I went out to eat, and then discovered that Lee was missing his cell. He had left it at a coffee shop not far from the store, while he was waiting for me, so we had to go back downtown, to pick up his cell.

Anyway, just wanted to drop in and let you know that there's been 2 more chapters added to
Scandinavian Fantasi I'll be sure and let you know when I get more added.

Hope you've all had a good week. I'm looking forward to the weekend. It's getting close!

I'm gonna take off and hit the sack. I'll be back in touch soon, I'm sure.

Much love,
Lev

Happy hump day to ya!

Hello, Everyone!

I have a few minutes before I have to go meet Lee, and then we're headed out to Landon's for supper...and to take Moriah. She works for the next 4 days.

Well, we got home from Indiana on Sunday/Monday...early morning hours. It was about 4:30. Needless to say, I was happy to know that I didn't have to be in to work until 3 that afternoon, so was able to get a little bit of sleep.

We made quite a bit of headway on laura's place...Lee's mom, but unfortunately, we still didn't get her completely unpacked. Physically, she can do hardly nothing, and can only work on putting things away after we have them unpacked, and then, only for a short while, before she has to sit and rest. She has very bad problems with her legs, and back...and certainly cannot lift boxes and haul. It looks like we will be going back the first weekend in August. I sincerely hope by then that we can get things finished up. Although Lee's mom is helping with gas, etc., it is still a bit of a financial burden to have to make the trip, not to mention, extremely exhausting!

Things have been running pretty smooth here. lee and I are both back at work. I can't begin to say how much I am looking forward to the weekend, and NOT having to face another trip to Indiana. At least we will have this weekend at home to help recoop some, before heading out the following weekend...leaving Friday, and returning Sunday, like we did before, is what we're going to try and plan for. But I am looking forward to not having to face a 7-8 hr. drive again this weekend, like we have the past two.

Well, I'm gonna have to head outta here in a bit to go meet Lee. I'm sure I'll be back in touch tomorrow...or the day after. At least I know I'm not taking off for anywhere...so I won't be far away. Hope you all have had a great week. Today is HUMP day, so it's downhill from here to the weekend! Hope you enjoy it.

Much love,
Lev

Hope you're enjoying the new chapters in my book. I'm gonna try to get to more of those over the next few days too.

More chapters in my book

It's about 11:30, and i was going to try and get in to say "HI", and fill you in on the weekend, but instead, I have been adding 4 more chapters to my book, online at Lev's Notes. I'm completely pooped, and am gonna have to hit the sack, but wanted you to know that more chapters have been added. Hope you all enjoy, and I'll do my best to get in, hopefully tomorrow.

Good night, Sweet dreams!

Much love,
Lev

Back Home

It's late, again, but just wanted to drop a line to let you all know that we're back from Indiana. We didn't arrive home until 4:40am on Monday...then didn't get to bed till almost 5:30. My boss called when we were on our way home, to say that he wouldn't be home himself till later Monday afternoon, so that was welcome news, that I wasn't going to have to be at work at 10:30, considering the time I got to bed..after driving all the way from Indianapolis. So, I was able to get a few hours sleep, getting up about 1:30. I got to work about 3, and was home before 7.

Anyway, with getting to bed to late, or early, I should say, I really need to hit the sack, but wanted to let you all know that we had returned. Hopefully, tomorrow, I'll be able to get in and fill you all in with more details, on the weekend. Hope your weekends all went well.

Will talk to you soon!

Much love,
Lev

Hello

Hello Everyone,

How have you all been doing over the past few days? It has been awhile since I've been able to come in and chat with you all, since we were gone over the last weekend.

We left Columbia around 5:30 on Saturday, and arrived in Indianapolis around 2 am Sunday morning. With us arriving so late, we slept in some on Sunday, and unfortunately didn't get started over at Lee's mom's apartment until around 3 in the afternoon. We really should have gotten started before then. But, we were still able to get some work done, or at least started to make a dent in it. It is literally stacked to the celling with boxes in her bedroom.

Lee's Aunt Sue made us a wonderful dinner for Sunday evening. We had meatloaf and mashed potatos, salad, and fresh green beans from the garden that were oooooooo, so yummy! There's nothing like fresh beans....well, actually, tomatoes out of the garden are the bomb!!!!

Monday, we were able to get started alot earlier and got quite a bit accomplished. Unfortunately, we were trying to cram several days work into two. So....that being said, Lee will be taking this Saturday off....so I don't have to take a day off again on Monday, and we will be leaving for Indianapolis again, on Friday evening, and coming back on Sunday. I am hoping that we're going to be able to get it almost done this time...or at least down to the bare minimum, so Laura will be able to finish it by herself. I guess we'll just have to see how it goes.

We got home Monday/Tues. about 2:15 am, then both Lee and I had to get up and go to work.

On the way down, we stopped to get gas and eat in Pocohontas, IL. There is a little place there with fabulous food, and we often stop there. But, this time, when we got gas, there was a diner/grill at the station, and when I went in to pay for our gas, it smelled FABULOUS!!! So, we opted to try this little place, instead of where we had originally planned on going. We weren't disappointed. The food was great...homemade onion rings...deli meats, it was good. We will definatley be stopping there again! On the way back, we stopped and ate dinner in Marshall, IL, at Jerry's....a great place, all decorated in 50's/60's memorabelia(?). Lee and I both had a breakfast that was "to die for"....bacon, eggs, sausage, hasbrowns, biscuits with sausage gravy....yum, yum. We have decided that it will be one of our regulars when making trips to Indiana. My boss Aaron is from Illinois, and he told me that there is a great place in Hearland , where his brother lives. I'm gonna have to ask him again, ....I forgot what the place was called, but he said they've eaten there lots of times, and it is really good. He said they also had great homemade pies. I wanna say it was called "Clearwater"...or something like that. Anyone from that area of Illinois know what place I'm talking about?

Well, with Monday off, Tuesday was absolute chaos for me at work! Boy, was it backed up. I was able to finally get out of there...head for the postoffice, and left the p.o. around 5:30. I came on home, and Landon, Moriah, and Dean....a friend of Landon's, picked Lee up at work around 7 when he got off(Landon had our car for the weekend), and then they headed here. It has been so hot a person doesn't wanna cook, so I just fixed some tunasalad, and we had some chips and fruit. I ran them home around 11.

The weather has just about been unbearable, hasn't it? I guess it has been like this all over the nation. I know here in Missouri, and last weekend in Indiana, we had temps around 95-98, with the heat index ranging from 102-105. You can't even walk out the door without breaking into instant sweat....looking like you've just walked out of the shower! lol Wringin' wet!
I checked our weather for this weekend, and it looks like we might get a bit of a break...highs in the mid 80's. Maybe it won't make all this moving and loading and unpacking stuff so unbearable, as it was last weekend in Indiana.

Moriah works Friday, so tomorrow night, we're going to go to Landon's for supper,...Moriah will stay, and we will leave our other car for Landon, like we did last weekend. I have to work Friday. I'm not sure if Lee is going to be able to get off a little early or not. Hopefully, I shouldn't have a problem getting out of Aaron's at a decent time, then will have to come home, finish packing, loading the car, and will then pick up Lee, and we'll head out from there. We'll probably get over into Illinois, probably Pocohontas, before we stop for supper, like we did last weekend. The only question will be, do we eat at the Powhatan...or, do we go back to the new place at the gas station, we found on our last trip? They're both REALLY good....it will be a tough decision!

Hope you have all been enjoying the book. I' m going to try and get a couple more chapters added tonight, since it has been awhile, and I'll probably try to get a couple more added before we leave again for the weekend. I'll let you know when I get them added.

Well, guess I'm writing an epic here, so should probably take off for now. Hope you've had a great day, and have a wonderful and relaxing evening ahead. I'll talk to ya soon!

Much love,
Lev

Chapters 5-6

Well, here I am, dropping in to let you know that I got chapters 5 and 6 added to my book.

It's about 12:20, so now, I'm gonna have to get up and move some tail, to try and get things ready to leave before long. I'm going to try and get back here for a quite stop before leaving later this afternoon. I definately want to say Hi to you all before leaving.

Hope you enjoy the new chapters.

Much love,
Lev

A late night hello

Hello all...
I have absolutely NO business being here...lol It's after 2 am, and I have a very long day ahead of me tomorrow. So there isn't even as much as colored font, or pretty background stationery. This is gonna be a quickie! lol

I've still got packing to do tomorrow, and we'll be leaving for Indiana sometime tomorrow afternoon...hopefully, around 5. Lee's gonna try and get off early. We'll see.

I've added a new page to my blog...Lev's Notes. You all may have gotten the forward I sent about Arlington Cemetery, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Well, I was so moved by it, that I've made it a permanent part of my blog, so hope you'll have a look. http://tomboftheunknown.blogspot.com/

I wanted to get a couple of chapters done in my book today, but didn't get around to it. I knew I had lots of stuff to do tomorrow, and I tried to get some of the stuff done this afternoon, that I knew had to be done before leaving. I got the "dreaded" kitchen cleaned. I KNEW I didn't want to get home late Monday to a dirty kitchen. I'm gonna do my best to have the house half way picked up before we leave, so I can come home late Monday to a fairly clean house. I also got the car cleaned out...vacumed, washed, inside windows washed, and dash cleaned, etc. Now...how long it will stay that way is another story. I'm sure it will be a disaster by the time we get home. But, maybe it will at least be clean on the way there. So...I am going to do my best to get a couple of chapters done tomorrow in my book. I hate to have to make you all wait till we get back to continue to story...this is, if you are/have read/ing it. So...I'll do my best, and I'll let you know for sure if I get it done. I'll definately be dropping you all a line before leaving tomorrow.

Hope you've all had a wonderful day! Hope tomorrow is a joy!

Much love,
Lev

Hello, Hello, Hello

So, how has everyone been doing the past few days? Well, I hope!

It's been a little fast-paced the past few days. It seems like everyday was either crazy at work, or I had to go somewhere and do something or pick someone up. Today, was the first day that I've gotten home at a decent hour...or at least around the time that I normally do.

We are going to be going back to Indiana again this weekend. Lee's mom is moving again, into a small apt. The arrangements that she had previously had fell though. Everything is packed and in a large 'pod'...or that's what they call it, and it is attached to a trailer, and pulled to wherever you're going. She is hiring someone to unload it, but Lee and I will be helping to unpack, and get the apt. set up, while we're there this weekend.

Several yrs ago, I began doing research on my family ancestry from Sweden. I'm not really sure what sparked the idea, but I was fortunate enough to be able and find out quite a bit of information about my father's family, and how they emmigrated from Sweden to the US, in the 1860's. I found it so so facinating. A couple of years after that...for some reason, and today, I couldn't really tell you why, I began to wonder if I could write a book. Now Bella is probably saying.... "why, sure Lev...the way you write, you could definately write a book"...lol Well, at the time, I really wasn't too sure if that was something I would be able to do. I think I felt that way mostly because I just wasn't sure if I'd be able to come up with any kind of a plot what so ever. An autobiography sure didn't sound appealing, as I figured I had a pretty boring life. lol So....I racked my brain, and tried to come up with an idea. I'll admit, I had been fanticising about Sweden, since I had started looking into my geneology, and constantly day dreaming about what it would be like to visit there...and would so often find myself day dreaming about what it must have been like...so many years ago, in my mother country. To live in that time. So...there was my book...but somehow, had to tie it all together. When I did finish it, I took it to a bindery in the town where we lived, and had books made as presents for my father, aunt, and uncle..(my dad's brother and sister)and me of course, the title, gold embossed on the leather jacket and all.

I'm going to share that book with you online. I'm not quite sure where I'm going to put it at...I'm going to say right off hand that I'll probably put it in Lev's Notes, @ blogspot. I'm also not sure if I'll be doing a chapter at a time...or two chapters. But, it will be over a period of time...hopefully, something that you'll be looking forward to, the next chapter to come out. Anyway, as soon as I figure out exactly how I'm going to do it, I'll be sure and let you all know, and I really do hope you enjoy reading it.

So...I guess I'm done yacking for now. I still have sometime before I need to run to the store and pick something up for supper...not sure what, so until I do that, I will probably spend sometime trying to decide how I'm going to do my book.

Hope you all have had a great day, and a wonderful evening ahead.

Much love,
Lev

A Beautful Saturday

A big "HI", to everybody, on this beeeeeeeeeutiful Saturday afternoon! I hope you are all doing fabulous!

Well, I've just come to enjoy this blog thing, entirely toooooo much. Now I am in 3....my first and original, Lev's Notes, @ blogspot.... then came the Yahoo 360, and naturally, I jumped right into that. lol Then a friend introduced me to Frappr....and I jumped head first into that too! I'll have to say I'm pretty much a yahoo fan...yahoo mail, yahoo messenger, geocities for my websites, but I'll have to admit that I enjoy my blogspot, and frappr moreso than I do my 360...but I've been trying to do things in there and make it more interesting over the past couple of weeks. So...now that I don't ONLY have 3 blogs to post to...plus friends, and groups, I'm gonna have to get lazy, and will probably be posting the same message to them all. I SURE hope this doesn't detour you from stopping in, because my blog/post entry is the same in all. There are lots of other things on my blogs that you can hopefully spend time enjoying. For instance, you can now enjoy music on mt blogspot page, as well as Frappr. I have also created a new map on Frappr..."Vacation Places", I hope you stop in, join the map, and show us all your favorite vacation spots!

We had a fabulous 4th. I hope you all did too, as well, for those who celebrated. I shared some of the pictures with you of the fireworks that we shot off, and some that we captured of nearby neighbors. Landon, and the kids came over....Amanda had to work. Of course, the boys were just tooo anxious to start shooting of fireworks, and it was hard to keep them corraled (?) while we got things going for supper....we wanted to have everything ready, so we could enjoy the evening without having to take time for a break to go cook...so we got that all out of the way. We were amazed.... we went outside around 8:30 or 9,...set up our blanket in the yard...got our drinks, the fireworks all prepared and the time was finally here. It was getting a tad bit chilly...not really bad, but a little chilly for a baby....Mary only had on a little short outfit. So, I wrapped a blanket around her, and we went and sat on the blanket in the front yard. She stayed bundled up...found her thumb, and would laugh when I'd play with her. The sound of bottle rockets, and firecrackers, and screamers were starting to fill the air, and her eyes would get big....and then she'd laugh when I'd start saying "pop...pop pop" For over 2 hours, she laid on that blanket....never cried, or fussed when the banging was sometimes more than the adults could handle...and the artilery shells would explode so hard you could feel your insides move...and I'd run to the blanket, for sure that she would be in tears after that one....and all I would see would be smiles!!! Mary LOVED HER FIRST 4TH!

Kenny and Gabriel had an absolue ball! I don't know that I've EVER seen any two kids sooooooo dirty in my life!!! They were both barefooted, and had run back and forth through the black carbon snakes that lay all over the drive way...not to mention all the other dirt and firework debree on the ground. But, they had the time of their life!

Well, Friday, June 31st was our last day of work. Aaron left for Illinois Fri. afternoon, after I left...dropped off his dog at his mom and dad's, then caught a plane out of st. louie to LA to visit his girlfriend who is out there for 8 weeks. So...anyway, he was suppose to be back Wed. afternoon, and we were going to try to get some books shipped out, considering that we hadn't done anything in the past 4 days. Well, I guess it was about 11:30 when my cell rang, and it was Aaron...saying that he didn't know if he'd get back in time to do any work that day or not. He was at the airport...the battery on his car dead, and he still had to go to his parents...which is prob. an hour drive or so, to get Buddy...the dog, then back to columbia, which is about an 1 1/2-2 drive. then, on top of that, his laptop wasn't working, and we need it to process the orders and get the shipments out. So...things weren't going to smooth at that point. He called me again around 7...he had just gotten home, and was getting ready to have someone look at the puter and get it fixed, so we just opted to start fresh first thing on Thurs. The only prob....that meant it had been 5 days since any shipping had been done. When all was said and done...we had a about 7 pages of books for me to hunt up...amounting to about 120 books. IF...at all possible, they all needed to be packaged and ready to ship so I could be at the postoffice before 7. Needless to say....we didn't quite make it. We probably got about 3/4 of them sent out on Thursday night. The rest of them went out Friday morning, then more orders that came in on Friday, we packaged, and I took them to the postoffice on my way home. We FINALLY, got caught up! I will say that I worked my fanny off on Thurs. and Friday. I really did enjoy all those days off in a row that I got....but yet the whole time I was off, knew it meant that when I did get back to work, it was gonna be CRRRAAAAAAAAZY! And, I was right!!!

I have had a great day! it is so beautiful here in MO today...just a delightful, hot summer's afternoon. It's suppose to be in the upper 80's...which is about right, from the way it feels outside. Of course, the day started off perfect when I DIDN'T have to get outta bed....till I wanted. lol Which, I guess, was about 10. I had told myself last night, that I HAD to get some work done on this house today, and COULDN'T spend all day in front of this puter...hehehehehe. So, about 11 thismorning, after having about 3 cups of coffee...I decided I better get busy on the house...just do it and get it done, so that I'd have time later to sit down at the puter, and enjoy the rest of my afternoon. I got laundry started...bed made, bath picked up, and a couple loads of laundry folded and put away. I ran in...sat at the puter..check my emails, then decided I'd start on the living room. I'm starring at the 'dreaded kitchen'....the room I HATE the worst...lol Putting it off till last, which is the worst thing I could do...but, that's what I did today. So...by pushin' myself just a little, I had almost everything done that I needed to do by about 2:30...including the kitchen.lol I still have laundry in the dryer...and stopping to fold a load here and there, but for the most part, I'm just relaxing now, the housework done, and feeling pretty good about my day!

Well, I guess I'll head out. I do hope you'll all continue to visit my blogs...regardless of the repeats in post. There will be times when things will be posted to one blog, and not the other, I'm sure...for one reasone or another...although now, I'm not sure what that would be....lol Anyway..hope you've all had a wonderful week, and are thoroughly enjoying your weekend. I'll talk to you all soon....

See you in my blogs......

Hello again, on this July 1


How is everyone's Saturday going? Well, I hope!

I've had a fairly lazy day, which is just fine with me. I didn't get up till almost 11, which was REALLY nice.

We finally got Moriah's computer completely set up...the one she got from lee's mom. She had to wait for paycheck last week, in order to buy a routher, and wireless adapter. We were having problems getting the router to work, but I just got off the phone not long ago, with the people from the router company, and they helped me to set it up correctly. Moriah will be happy to know that it's finally working. There for awhile, it was just one or the other of us that could be connected...it wouldn't let us both connect to the internet at the same time. I'm glad we finally got that cleared up and working right.

We have a new Kohls...I had never been, so decided to drive out there for a look....mainly to see what they had in the line of swim suits...but, really didn't find anything that I liked...or not for the money they were asking anyway. So, I headed on to $ General where things are more "my" price. lol I also ran to the grocery store to pick up a few things for supper.

It's HOT here, so something on the cool side for supper, sounded really good. So, I'm going to make a fruit plate...peaches, oranges, apples, bananas, cantelope, along with some cottage cheese and homemade chicken salad. I'll serve it with crackers. It will be a quick supper, and sure beats heating up the stove or oven....well, I will have to boil some eggs for my chicken salad, but that's all.

Well...since I don't make it in as often as I'd like, I decided to go ahead and do a double duty post for July 1. It seems like it has taken me weeks before to get in and catch up with you all, and now, here I am, posting twice in the same day. lol

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and upcoming holiday on the 4th! We have some celebrating to do as a country!

Where did June Go???

Here it is, July 1 already, and now, I have to truthfully say, that I haven't been in to drop a line to you all since last month! Don't ask me where the last week went...I don't really know. lol
Moriah works this weekend, so we went out to Landon's for supper. We fixed a big breakfast...omletts, with ham, cheese, and onion...biscuits, with sausage gravy...it was might delicious! I guess it was about midnight when we got home. Of course, we would have been at home sooner, and infact, was real close to the exit to our house, when Lee informs me out of the blue..."we forgot the car"! I had met him at a restaurant...our usual meeting place, when going to Landon's, so we don't have to take 2 cars to Ashland. Well...drove right past the exit...where the car was parked, and made it almost all the way to our house...within a 1/2 mile, or so, before we thought of it. So...we just took our exit, that should have taken us home...hung a left, and then right back out onto the highway again, headed back to the car. It's about 4 miles, not that it's that big a deal, or long a trip, but just that I was SO close to home, and really looking forward to it. Oh well...better to go back tonight, than to have to get up tomorrow morning and take Lee to the car....NO WAY, JOSE'....I don't have to work tomorrow, and I'M SLEEPIN' IN!!!!!
Moriah bought this new game for the puter...you can build your own zoo,...add animals, food concession, workers, benches, flowers...etc. Then people come visit, and you bring in revenue...earn money, and points. I got hung up on that silly thing this afternoon, when I got home from work. It IS addicting!!! lol
Moriah spent the night at Allie's house last night. Today was her Birhtday...Allie's that is, and she was having people over tonight to 'hang out'...but, since Moriah had to work this weekend and couldn't spend the night tonight, she stayed last night, and then today, Allie's mom took them to the mall...they did some shopping, and went to Olive Garden for lunch. Moriah had a blast. She was home when I got off work. That's when the 2 of us got caught up in that silly zoo game.
Aaron, my boss...his girlfriend, Mary, has been gone to L.A. for a couple of weeks. She is there on an apprenticeship for 8 weeks. Aaron was leaving this afternoon to go to Illinois to drop his dog, Buddy off, at his parents, and then he takes a flight out of St. Louis Sat. morning, headed for L.A. He will be coming back on Wed. around noon, and then I'll be coming in at 3, and we're going to do our best to get 5 days worth of books hunted up, packaged, and to the postoffice by 7, if we want them to go out...and I KNOW he does. We do our best to ship within 24 hrs., and we most generally get that done. So, I know he is wanting to do his best to get this mailed on Wed., since it will have been since Fri. since we shipped last. It will make for a crazy day on Wed., but it is sure going to be nice having all those days off, and not having to be back till 3 on Wed.
Well...it is late, and I have a couple other things I'd like to do, so guess I'll head outta here. But, I knew that I really needed to get in and say Hi to you all, since it had been sooooooo long. I hope your week was a good one, and I hope you're looking forward to the long holiday weekend ahead. We have a celebration to put on!!!!

Talk to you all soon...
Love,
