Playing Catch Up

Chicago was just grand. I thoroughly enjoyed the conference and learned so much. I ran into really amazing people such as the beautiful man from Amsterdam whom I could have listened to all day, Fiona, the Irish woman currently working in Singapore and oozing charm, and Lucy, the live wire from Toronto who was completely full of life. It's moments such as those that stay with you forever.


Chicago is an amazing city. I hate that it took me almost 33 years to get there. If you go, take my advice. Go to the top of something and watch the sunset. I went to the Hancock Observatory. You just can't have these experiences everywhere. I took this picture. With my own camera. I feel like a real photographer!! 

I came home to a very happy Harry. He was as ready to see me as I was to see him. We have been doing a lot of snuggling since Wednesday night. I am home for a while now and happy about that. Things are changing some at work and things are getting busy. I like it that way, though. It keeps me on track. Should be interesting.


Today was the Hair Man's birthday. He had his favorite, McDonald's French Fries, and finished that up with Frosty Paws ice cream. He also got a new toy. It's always a treat to give him a new toy. He hugs on it forever. Just like he knows it came from me. He's a special boy.

I think that catches you up on everything. Pray hard that I get to start a new class at UOP next week. If not, the Hawaii trip is not going to be nearly as much fun. :)
