Right about now my husband Stephen is giving a concert in Franklin TN and Ann and Randy are in the audience!

I am sooooo sad, because I was supposed to be there too, but I had to cancel the trip.  I have a big deadline at work early this week.  The pits, huh?

I can't wait to hear about it.

Just a yucky cold/flu thing. I really really hated missing Stephen's concert. He is a fantastic musician and songwriter.

I am so sorry that you missed it Anna and sorry to hear that you are sick.  I just talked to Stephen a couple of minutes ago so I was wondering what happened.  Apparently it was a great show.  He is going to have a fun night in Nashville and I am hanging around my house.  Boo hoo, Boo hoo.  At least I made a huge amount of progress on my proposal this weekend and will be ready to work with the business office folks first thing tomorrow.
