For you Uncle Bill and Aunt Linda........with all my love....

Uncle Bill has finally gone home to be with his beloved wife Linda.  It's the only thing getting us through this difficult time of losing him, the knowledge that he is no longer in pain and is now dancing with Aunt Linda, the love of his life.  Dance away Aunt Linda and Uncle Bill!  Your dance has been well overdue! I will always love and admire you both as some of the most important, loved people in my life.

My friends....Thank you!

Officially, the party is over. The great my hubs if 50 party!  And boy was it a party!  Of course many of you know that the planning for this party began months ago and understand that I have an over abundant need to have every little detail perfect which can drive anyone batty! Ok, Ok, Ok, I admit I am OVERLY OCD to the point of pure madness! 

Even with this acute illness which would drive most people screaming into the night I still do not understand why I have 3 FABULOUS friends who put up with me and are always at my side with every major event I load onto myself.

Through thick and thin they are always there doing whatever it takes to make it through.  Whether it's bringing/making food, decorating, watching my kids or whatever they are there! The last year or so of my life I have grown closer and closer to these ladies and honestly I can hardly mention them without feeling all icky mushy inside.

I was extra blessed for this party though because I had two extra hands, Toni and Cheryl on deck to assist me in my craziness! If only they lived closer they could be a permanent part of our crazy group!
