Too many things going on . . .

Last week was C R A Z Y!!! Work kicked my ass! I think it'll slow down, but not quite yet. Lots of hours but hey, this is what I choose. I'm thankful, in more ways than one.

I finished the third of Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez's books. This one was called "Make Him Look Good" and it was soooo good. I love her writing - it's like reading my thoughts. She's simple to understand; maybe that's why I get into her books because I don't have to think hard about what she's trying to convey or say. Kinda like me, simple but deep. Lots of emotions but not hard to figure out. If I'm quiet, leave me alone. I'm not mad, I'm not in a bad mood, I just need to be left alone and I don't need to "talk" it out. Ok, back to the book (sorry about that tangent - it's not always about me). . . I guess the other reason I relate so well to her style is she's all about the Latin/Hispanic culture. Anyway, I love her style and can't wait for her fourth to come out sometime this month.

So last week I got an email from a friend that I had not talked to since 1992. She sent one of those "are you the person who knows me" message and of course I did. I am so excited to connect w/her again. We used to work together in the late 70's/early 80's here in Albuquerque before I got married and she moved back to Tampa. She reminded me of a time that my ex had surprised me when we lived in South Carolina. He told me that he invited his boss for dinner so I was expecting his boss, and in walked Patti and Thom. I think I cried - they had come up from Tampa to visit for the weekend. First time I had friends visit me since I had left home and it was pretty special. Yeah, my ex wasn't always an ass. So anyway, I love that another friend has connected w/me via the superhighway.

I'm excited about this weekend, because I'm heading to Taos again. This time for a wedding. My girl Pat's niece is tying the knot and we get in on the fun. Don't you love weddings? I do. You get to dress up, you get to eat, you get to drink and dance . . . what's not to like. Plus, I'm not the one that had to stress setting up the shindig. I love weddings.

Well I hope everyone has a great week. I'll catch up on your blogs since I've neglected lately. peace out!
