Life is such a funny thing. You never really know what to expect. I like that though even when it's not what you were looking for. I had this whole age thing going around in my head and had planned to write that tonight. And Patricks graduation this Friday is also spinning around my brain-I'm very proud of him. He's going to be posted to Berlin for his first embassy post. A whole year in Germany. Wow. I'm happy for him, excited for him, but I'm really really gonna miss him. I know he's excited but he's got to be a little nervous too. But at least it's a country that does speak English. I wonder if he'll get fat. We are going up tomorrow afternoon and stay over night so we will be there fresh the next morning. Hopefully we will be able to have dinner with him. That's the plan anyway.
I'm not writing the age bit because I made two sales today. I sold one of tote bags to a returning customer and I finally sold one of my pillows. I'm so excited. I like my pillows but I was beginning to think that they would never sell. Then low and behold someone buys one. Now I just hope they like it when they get it. I haven't had a return yet and I don't want to start. I'm sure it will be fine. I do good work so why wouldn't it be? O.k. enough of that. Think about something else.
I ran into my cousin Kenny today. It was really good to see him. He's out of work too. That seems to be a recurring theme around here. Lord please let things change soon-for the better. He and Gus have been together twelve years, twelve years. That bears repeating. I did not realize it had been that long. Where did the time go? He really hasn't changed-gotten a little older but he hasn't changed. He's still the same ol' Kenny-thank God!
Oh, poop! My movie is about to come on! It's "The Jane Austin Book Club". I saw it once with Shannon but I can't remember how it went. I know I liked it. I love Jane Austin. Big Fan. O.k. Gotta go.
