I had lunch with thegrammalady today! We met at Rosie's Diner in Aurora, CO; TGL was kind enough to drive up here from Castle Rock. We had a lovely lunch and had fun talking about IHD and lots of other stuff. We're both hoping to make it to Vegas in October to meet more of the gang! This is such a great group -- Love you guys!

 :2thumbsup; That is so cool! Love the photo!

I was disappointed that I missed TGL when i was in Colorado, but we had so much to do in a short time.

I hope I get to meet you both sometime!

What a great picture!  XTM, you look wonderful--apparently donating agrees with you!   I am so glad you two got to spend time together.  Can't wait until Vegas!!

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
