Philly

So Eldest Daughter is going to be married this summer.  Living back east, she is making most of the preparations herself.  And there is a bridal shower first part of May.

Back east. Way back east. Far from home.

Poo.

That is...
Until!

I found out recently that at work, everyone (and by everyone, I mean everyone who is a REAL employee) ‘gets’  to go to a very important and special meeting the first week of May, and since no one (and by no one, I mean me) will be left at the site, it will be closed.

So I have a week off.

Unpaid, but off work. (Apparently I will still have a job after two years of being a temporary employee...albeit still as a temporary employee.  But still....getting a paycheck.)  (I do not think temporary means what they think temporary means....)

Anyway...my days off?  Right before Eldest’s bridal shower.

I decided it was fate, and I decided that I was going to back east.  I was going to the shower.

Also?  It happens to be the weekend of the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival, so we are thinking to take that in as well.  I was sort of kind of planning a trip to Philly this year, more towards the fall, with my sights on Rhinebeck, but I think this fits that goal.

So look at me…
Going to Philly and attending the bridal shower.  I am Pleased. As. All. Get. OUT!

I like being nobody.

You are NOT nobody! (I am sure that Jan, Kat, Virg and Becka will back me up on that!) I am glad that you are getting to go east. Take a hug from me along.

  • Welcome...

    ...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
