I knew it was a going to be a long and busy one and pretty interesting. And oh brother, I am glad it is done.



You already know about Friday and DD getting her first goal. Saturday and Sunday was more hockey.



Sunday night was my 30th HS reunion. How very strange - I haven't seen most of these folks since my parents moved. It was scary, some of them haven't changed at wink. Some have changed quite a bit - including some surgical enhancements. Those were on full display if you know what I mean.


But this morning was the best. And the most nerve wracking. DD's team was in the "Championship" game of the tournament. We were never ahead; always playing catch up hockey. But our "star" put the puck in the net to tie us at



17 seconds left in the game. And put it again in overtime to win the game.


So, I'm beat.



Maybe I can stitch tomorrow.

Yep. I went to my 20th, and everyone raved that I still looked exactly the same. Meanwhile, some of our cute little size 2 cheerleaders had to introduce themselves to everyone because they were now size 22 and 32.

Knowing that red hair doesn't go grey, I'm looking forward to my next one, where I will still look like a teenager next to all those old grey-haired people. :)

What a great reason to be beat. She must be thrilled beyond belief.

Hey Karen,

While it's true that red hair doesn't turn gray, it does fade and gradually turn white so I doubt your hair will be the same color as it was when you were a high school kid.

And don't forget, hair color isn't the only thing that changes.

Lucille, still a size 2, and an old gray-haired person ;^))

I want to take a nap, but the kids aren't letting me.....

And plastic surgery and a good colorist can really make a difference.

True, but my dad's 82 this year and it's still strawberry blond, not white, so I figure I have a long way to go.

I'm still passing for 35-and-under, so I don't think I'll deteriorate too fast between now and my next reunion. I do have to get back in remission so I'll lose a little weight (though some of my old clothes still fit, so I guess I could declare that I'm still a size 12?)
