Oxford Bound

Mark your calendar..........this coming Tuesday and Wednesday night (March 4-5) I will be in Oxford. I have a bank seminar on Wednesday and Thursday during the day at the Downtown Inn. I am not sure what the agenda for the seminar is on Wednesday - it may last a little after 5 and include dinner. So the best night for together time is more than likely Tuesday night, if anyone is up for it.

I will be staying at Casa de Susan, if they accept my imposing in their beautiful home.

Again, I ask for nothing more than the steady flow of wine or beer and a good friend or two to hang out with. How fun does that sound? Sounds a little like Heaven in my book!

Hopefully I'll see some of you soon.....if not maybe next time.

Crack Me Up

I love my friends. I love reading their blogs and cracking up laughing and the funny antics they recreate for my entertainment. Keep on posting and don't ever stop - you guys help me keep my sanity, especially here lately.

Things with my mother in law are going well. As I tell everyone when they ask how she is doing....she is doing way better than any of us! She came and stayed with us for almost a week since her husband contaminated her house with the flu. She is absolutely a hilarious nut case. I wish I could blame everything on drugs or a brain tumor.....it is obscene. It freaks people out when she says it, but those that know her know how funny it really is. I am still in awe at all of the people that continually call, stop by, bring food or flowers, etc. I told her she was going to have to leave my house because I have gained weight from all of the awesome food people keep bringing. I feel morally obligated to eat it, I mean really - they went through all of that trouble to make it then bring it to my house. She went back home Tuesday and I am still relishing in the left overs. YUM-O to good food, I want a brain tumor!

I did have the stomach bug last Thursday, nobody brought me anything but Gatorade and a thermometor as they wore a S.A.R.S mask. I was shunned to my father in laws pool house so that I wouldn't have contact with anyone. Thank goodness it was only the 24 hour bug, I thought I was dying. I was making out my Last Will and Testament and picking Bible verses I wanted read at my funeral as I steadily talked to myself and fell in and out of consciousness. I even called my mom 800 miles away and told her she better come soon if she wanted to see me alive again. She didn't come. That's ok...I will remember that folks. Glad I pulled through.

This weekend is my nieces birthday party - she is 2. It is at my house since I live in Switzerland. Those of you that come from divorced homes should know what I mean. My house is neutral ground. I don't really live in Switzerland.

That's about all I know. I am at my mother in laws house waiting for her husband to get home from work.....(it's 7:00 p.m.). She can't be alone for the next 30 days so at 5:00 when I get off of work I come relieve her friends that hang out with her during the day until he gets home. He should be here soon, so I will sign off for now.

I am in dire need of an Oxford weekend....Susan I may come visit soon!
'll remember that folks.
