I have a bad track record with these things, but it looks doable.

We'll try, Duchess. I hope Furl's can make it......Kym, it would be wonderful if you and your daughter could come. And if Furlsy and her Russ come, I'm sure that she wouldn't mind a bit of help in herding the kids.

We'll see. NY is a lot closer to DC than Albuquerque -- definitely driveable! We'll be in the throes of packing off my oldest to college, plus my mom (who turned 90 last weekend!) may well be living with us by then, so I can't promise anything yet. I could always leave the girls home and come by myself -- hmmm....

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~
...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

You go, girl!
We need to join Brinn in reminding people that there are so many cancer "survivors" nowadays that there should be a whole new viewpoint on the subject.
I'm still figuring ways and means, so we may indeed, ironically, meet on the other side of the country.

Yep, we have to put in for our time off for the entire coming year once a year.
(It's a massive pain in the butt, but it has forced me to become more organized and learn how to do a bit of long range planning over the years.
) I put in for my time by the deadline, which was at the end of last month. The supervisors are supposed to let us know sometime in March if they have granted our requests. I am tops for my position in seniority, so hopefully I will get off the time in August I requested. If so, then we can pick whether we want to meet the first weekend or the second weekend.

Or maybe even Krispy Kreme?
