Wednesday, September 29, 2010 - It's so WEIRD to write September 29 because it's so close to September 30th that it's almost scary in an exciting and anticipatory way....

On Monday night, we met Colleen, Steph, Jeannette, Jacqui, Brooke, Kevin, Kevin and Keith stopped by. Also JD. But we saw lots of other people that we knew. It was SO MUCH FUN!

It is amazing and energizing to meet with those wonderful kids. And I do say kids because I'm old enough to be their GRANDMOTHER. Their beer drinking granny. hahaa!!

Maybe that's why we get along so well with them. Or it could just be that they're awesome and we're extremely lucky to spend time in their orbit. And they do travel around like whirling dervishes....(obscure reference).

Better get going. Yesterday, I spent the ENTIRE day cleaning, organizing and tossing stuff out. We're getting the house appraised so we can appeal the real estate tax assessment -- which has been historically high and is now VERY HIGH.

Plus, the sealcoat people called me last night just before 5 and they're ALSO coming today to seal the driveway. Nothing happens for weeks on end....then, everything happens on the same day. Isn't that the way these things go? Answer: yes!

See ya later, djb
