Where We Are Now
After finding and remediating mold twice in our Colorado home, we abandoned ship in October 2008. Because of the high levels of exposure, our entire family was affected. After months of seeing different specialists for all of the problems, we came to Arizona to begin comprehensive treatment to rid our bodies of the toxic buildup. In August 2009 we moved into a larger home, four bedrooms, south of Tucson, north of Mexico. I am doing my daily radio program/ writing from that location. Thanks for praying for us. We really feel it.

This weekend is my 30th High School Reunion. I am not with my friends and I know I am missing out. It's not because I don't want to be there. It's not really about finances. Life just intervened. Life has a way of doing that.
I had so many people I wanted to talk with. So many events I wanted to get perspective on from this side of my West Virginia education. Like the 9th grade election of President of the National Honor Society. Why did I come in 3rd place out of 3? What was it that prompted the first and only girl I ever danced with in Junior High School to ask me...no, drag me onto the dance floor? What about the demise of our high school into a conglomerate? Where have all my friends gone? What have they done with their lives? How many children have they had? (I'm close to being the winner in that category.) I'm looking forward to seeing pictures.
I wish you all lots of smiles, a few tears, and joy down those country roads. May you all have safe travels, spirited conversations, and happy memories. I'll be there in 2010...or whenever you decide to have the next one!
Go Groundhogs! I mean, Greyhounds.
(That's another memory. I was announcing a basketball game and called the team the Groundhogs by mistake. Sort of. Okay, it wasn't by mistake and they never asked me to announce another game. But I'm sorry. Really.)
Then there was that talent show I hosted in the velvet tux and sang a song about a Possum. My career went downhill from that moment. That was the peak.
Wait, there's more....aaarrrgggghhhh. Wish I was near the Mud River this weekend.

I remember the talent show and the game! As a matter of fact, my cousin and I were talking (laughing) about some of the "talent" at that show. My, my, my.
Are you sure it was your 30th reunion? I'm not that old, and you were just a year ahead of me,so.... I'm sure you were sorely missed by all!
Go Groundhogs! And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
