Friday was my last day at work... It was weird - I actually did a lot of work, got called into an impromtu meeting for an hour (all though, really, it wasn't surprising) and did a lot more work after that. My manager got me a beautiful engraved clock with my initials and my last day of work on it. I only cried a very little and I was very proud of myself for not bawling like a baby the whole time. I had to rush out of work though, to make it to Eden Park in time to meet my family for round 3? 4? (I've lost track!) of saying goodbye.
What a beatiful view! I am going to miss Kentucky so very much...
My sister Annmarie (she of the collapsible basket and photo frame noteriety) was in town for a wedding so she and her family planned a lovely picnic afternoon for us and also my sister Theresa and brother Andrew. I'm not sure why I'm the only one wearing sunglasses in this picture - I ended up looking like the odd man out!
The kids were so cute - I was distracted and spent a ton of time taking pictures of them ( and especially Lilia who was into an absolute cookie-eating frenzy!!).
The three girls found a little wading pond and they were content to spend the afternoon splashing through it to run across a cute little bridge that went over a deeper portion of it. What a great park for children...

Hi Mimi, I have been reading your blog, which is interesting. I think you're a good writer except for one thing - all the semi-colons. Something about the way you're using them makes your writing sound stilted. I thought I would comment since finally there is a semi-colon-free entry.

Ewwww to you, anonymous poster. Grow up and realize that a semi-colon can be used in place of a period at the discretion of the author. Maybe you need to repeat high school English, because I'm pretty sure they went over that.
Here... these are for you ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
PS to Mimi- Sorry to hijack your blog and cause drama, but that needed to be addressed. :-)
