My friend Kathy has been under the radar lately, having very little contact with me or our friend John. She's had a lot of personal, professional and financial problems and had to move in with her daughter, son-in-law and grandkids. She says that she'll be in touch again, once "she turns a corner."
That's why I was so surprised and pleased that she sent me a birthday card with a ticket to this event at our church. It was funny and interesting and I'm glad I went. I'll shoot her an email after I finish this post.
While I had fun, I believe this is IT, the last hurrah of Galfest 2009.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
OH FUN!! Steph is one of my favorite listens - have been listening to her show for 3 years now. LOVE MAMA!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got to go! I think of you whenever I hear something Chi-town related.
(Been having probs posting a comment lately. Have to go back to using firefox for somethings. So, I'm out here. Not to worry!)
I've enjoyed your hurrah!
ReplyDeleteThat did look like fun.
Looks like a fun event. And how thoughtful of Kathy.
ReplyDeleteThe last hurrah. I feel a sense of letdown.
Happy Birthday!!!!!
