I didn't make it....

I didn't make it a full month before updating.  I know how that will disappoint most of you WizOp readers...

My weekend schedule is being changed again, I am not sure what the new one is yet, should find out in the next few days.  I *KNOW* I will be off the weekend of Pam's wedding, cause they KNOW I will NOT work that weekend.

I am checking into attending the October party in Vermont.  It will only be for a weekend, but is possible at this time to say count me as a definate maybe.

November gathering is a sure thing.  Got vacation planed and tickets bought.

The haunt is into every weekend a work weekend.  I/We plan to work as much as work schedule allows.

Guess I better post this "other places" as well as here, since not everyone there knows of this place! 

Until next TIME.....

Ammmmm.....

Gee, where did July go?

Time has caught up with itself and the waiting is over.  Seems like just yesterday, the clock had stopped and was creaping forward.  Now it seems to be running fast ... I suppose to catchup with itself for running slow the last couple of months.  I had not realized that I did not post anything in July.  So much has changed, and I am once again seeing things in color instead of shades of gray.

More later...

Time Moves Forward

I finally recovered from the Reno trip, only to find that the clock has slooowed down.  You know, when you are having enjoying what you are doing, and having fun, it seems that time is going by at such a fast pace, you would like to slooow it down so you can enjoy it longer.

When you are waiting for something to happen, that you want to happen, time seems to go by ever so slowly.  It seems to take a loooong time for the clock to go around and the days drag by.

In Reno, I got to visit with an Aunt from my Dad's side of the family, that I had not seen in close to 40 years. We got to spend some time talking about the family, and about our familys.

I also got to visit briefly with a cousin that I had not sceen in about 30 years. He has changed (haven't we all?) but I still recognized him.  Took him until I told him my name before he recognized me.  Thrity years will do that to you! 

I spent some time visiting with my sisters maid of honor, (whom I dated a few times back in high school,) and we reminised about things we did oh so long ago.

I got to visit with my "Other Head" as we named ourselves when we were the same height running through the corn field scareing our younger siblings more years ago then we want to admit. She is doing well and is going to try to make it out, with her mother, to Pam's wedding.

I also got to visit with a very special close friend of the family. I found out she was going to be moving from Northern California to be closer to her kids.  After some lengthy conversations, it turns out that I am closer to her kids, so this area makes a third option for her.  We have talked nightly since Reno and it seems I am now at the top of her list of places to relocate to.  This is a good thing, and one that has made the clock sloooow down.

Weekend is here

After recovering (sorta) from the trip to Reno, later today, Burgers Lake social.  Lotsa sun, possibaly some rain, sand, water, and visiting with some of the haunted house friends.

I have talked with Gloria. Pamela is meeting me for lunch on Sunday for a talk.  Have not heard from Cheryl as yet, hopefully soon! <hint hint>

Things are progessing slowly... time draws near.

Gave away my only sister...

This weekend's trip to Reno was enjoyable.  I got to re-unite with some cousins I had not scene in many years, as well as visit with a woman that I dated a few times in high school.  We exchanged email addresses shared some embareassing  hints to stories of our childhood that we did not want to share with the assembled family members.

I had the privilage of walking my only sister down the isle.  At one point, I almost had to step in front of her to slow her down.  She was ready to RUN down the isle.  We managed to hide it pretty good from everyone else, I think.  Sandy and Tom are so right for each other, it was great to once again see the sparkle in Sandys eyes.

I talked at length with a close friend, who might be moving out this way - we will see what happens.
