I Guess I Need Some Rest

I can now say that I have been embarrassed to the point of a hot, red face.

Two of my Thursday meetings run back to back, one being at 530 and the other at 700. Following the 530 meeting, I began a "getting started session" for the new members who had joined. Around 615 or so, some members for the 700 meeting began lingering out in the hall. I told them to, "Come on in." When I had completed the gss, I stayed in the meeting room and began chatting with the 700 members.

For some reason I glanced at the clock and got concerned that I was going to start the meeting late. So.... I began the meeting, at 640! The entire time, I was thinking, "Where is everyone?, I can't believe they would stay home because of the rain!, Take care of the few who did come out." About 645 or so, I told the members that since I had started the meeting late, I would run the meeting until 10 after. That's when one of them reminded me that the meeting wasn't supposed to start until 700! OH MY GOSH! I stared at the clock, and that's when I felt my face get hot, hot, hot! I ran next door, to the weigh-in room and, sure enough! There were the members, in line waiting for their turn at the scales! I sat down next to my receptionist, who just smiled at me. I told her what I had done, and she broke out laughing as did the rest of the members in line. I have never done anything like that before. Needless to say, I began the meeting, AGAIN! at 700.

And that's the rest of the story.
Be Blessed,

Still working on figuring things out

Well,

I have been working on trying to include other sites for folk to access when they visit me, to no avail. I will definitely be chatting with my blogger friends to figure out more of this. :-) This is actually quite relaxing, isn't it?

We have a new family member as of this morning! We went out and adopted the cutest little kitten. Our matriarch, Allie passed 3 weeks ago. it was such a sad day. The girls, hubby and I took her to the vet. We cried and cried the entire drive over. She passed peacefully thank goodness. We were all so blessed to have Allie for 18 years!

We have a one year cat, named Suzie Q, was has been quite lonely and needy since Allie's passing. She site at the door and meows when we leave and everything! Poor thing. Hence our journey for a "buddy" for Suzie. We ended up at the National Humane Society on Gunn Highway. Wow! There were 36 kittens and 3 grown cats at this place. What a clean and pet friendly environment to be in. We picked out(after about 1 hour) a cute, gray and white, long hair baby. oooooohhhhh. :-)

Now the integration begins. You see, Suzie is not real comfortable with the new "thing" in the house. She follows her everywhere, literally. They will mesh soon. Suzie is young enough to adjust and I am sure that she will actually LOVE having a playmate.

Somehow, I feel like our family is complete once again.

Be Blessed,

So uncomfortable with all of this!

Ok, so I asked some of friend who actually blog and LOVE it, just how to get started and how much time would be involved. One very sweet friend gave me some tips but I am so lost right now. It took me over a hour just to do what is on the main page! I did manage to download a picture of my dear hubby and myself, of which I am quite proud! :-)

I have seen blogs that are so decorative with so many neat sites to click on, etc. A few have bookshelves, etc. Ok, so how do all of those things just show up someone's page! hmmmm....

Anyway, I am hoping that can find my way back here to continue the learning process as well as learn more about myself!

Be Blessed!
