I took off from home at 3:30ish, and now sit in the Houston airport waiting for my next flight to Corpus Christi that takes off at 6:25. It’s kind of a wait, but at least I have a chance to FReep for a minute.

Talked to NYT...he had just gotten here in Houston and he left for Corpus at 4:40, so we just missed one another here. LOL!

I’ll get there at 7:15 or so, and we’ll go straight to the restaurant to meet the Houston group. Mylife is already there....he drove.

See ya Sunday! Lauren is already on her way! Yay!!!

[luvie]

...if they only had a brain....LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Day is done. Normal day.

How’s yours?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Twink, for the prayers for Chaplain Blum.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I wish it was over...lots of late timecards. I've cut 17 late checks yesterday and today (only 2 were mine). Every one has been time not turned in. We've been chastised several times about not paying some people...pretty tough to pay someone if no time has been turned in. This is a subject I will NOT be quiet about....if you want someone paid, TURN IN THE D*&@ TIMECARD!!!! STOP BLAMING PAYROLL!!!!

AND

Oh...glad you had a normal day. d:o)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Isn’t that baby cute? LOL!!

[txradioguy]

Thank you and thanks to all the prayer warriors as well.

No ceremonies this weekend...for once.

Gotta get rested up for the start of Twilight Tattoo on Wed.

[HiJinx]

Lauren is already on her way! Yay!!!

Kewl! We're hoping to meet up with Ms. Lauren for lunch tomorrow.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Did you tell the Drum and Fife Corps that their admiring public sure would like it if they sold CDs? d:o)

[Kathy in Alaska]

WooHoo!! The festivities are underway!

[Shortcake]

Thanks for the PING!

Just something to talk about...I’m going to Hobbs, New Mexico tomorrow to bet on the Kentucky Derby.
