Let me know either way. Know you have your plans set so if it doesn't work out maybe next time. And adm please leave this here as I know Ann will check this section. Thanks.

Again Ann I hope you had a great time and one of these days we'll actually meet. We are going the end of Nov into Dec and hope maybe I'll be able to connect with a few LPers. I'll be there for my 54th b-day! Yah this dame is getting old.

Originally Posted By Labuda It was just as pleasant to talk to you, jk! You're a great lady to be there for your daughter like this, and in case I iddn't offer my condolences on kitty beofre, please know now that I am very sorry your daughter lost her furbaby. (hugs)

Originally Posted By jkayjs Thank you all for the sentiment. And Ann thanks for being so understanding. We just spent over 2 hours @ the airport to visit with my FL daughter and a friend who had a lay over on their way to Vagas. My local daughter and I drove over and my son and husband met us there. We ate with them and visited it was wonderful. It's great to have people in your life you can share things with. I feel doubly blessed to have my LP family as well as those I share blood with.
