Vacation...


So, I have been bombarded with people asking me, why I haven't been posting. I kept saying that I was on vacation...And the bad part is that I had plenty of good material on my travels, and a constant conflict of karma...Like, when I had plenty of time, there was no computer, I was staying in a camper with no internet, in a town of 500 people, so No, No WIFI here... Then, when I had access to a computer, I had no time to chronicle my wonderful information. I had great stuff in my head to write, too...Who couldn't come up with great stuff after hanging out with my husbands ex-wife and husband, family galore, and a wedding. I now realize that I haven't posted in 20 days and that I was only on vacation for 10, hmmm, guess I need a new excuse. Good news is, maybe I will get my Verizon wifi card for Christmas with a shiny new laptop, so that I can post anywhere and everywhere. Hear that Santa? If you wanta toa reada my stuff, you need to fill my sock... (not in Ashley Terms either.) Quick Highlights of the trip...The beautiful bride, seeing Grandma (88) and Grandpa (93?), spending $33 dollars on movie admission and yummy popcorn, complete with Coke Products to watch half the opening credits of CARS, a movie I actually wanted to see, and took my grandson, as an alibi, good thing GOD invented Netflix. I know already I am buying Kalob that movie from Me for Christmas., Another highlight was getting to catch three uncles bdays...Chris (50th, celebrated with a polish Luau) Ernie (74) and Dave (65), both celebrated at my aunts house with yummy potluck food. Speaking of food, I got to re-experience the awesome Polish delight Klusky noodles (dumpling) and sauerkraut. Non-Food highlights include spending time with a great high school friend, Shannon. Playing golf with her and my sister was fun, even though I didn't figure out how to hit the ball until hole number 8, which thank you very much, we used my ball (we were playing Scramble style) Actually it was hole 8 of the second day, I also played like 17 holes the day before. I informed Rodney that I figured it out, and I am ready to go to the driving range, without him yapping in my ear, about keep your eye on the ball, yada, yada, yada., slow down, yada, yada, yada... He said ok, we need to get you some clubs, and I said Ok, and I have already picked out my shoes, to which he said NO, you can't get shoes until you play golf for 9 years. Maybe Santa heard the kind of shoes that I wanted? There are many more highlights, like UND shopping, Whidmans Shopping, eating at the Red Pepper!!!!! Seeing My Dad's best bud and visiting for a couple of hours, coffee from the Urban Stampede, and seeing a couple of friends from high school that I haven't seen since the 1990's sometime, Kim and Noel...Also, I got to see cousins I haven't seen since a long time....Ok, I will not bore you anymore, the more I type, the more things I remember I did, I must have had FUN. Now, it is back to work, and to planning the next vacation.

  • Best part of your vacation for me was definetly the Windham's shopping. Maybe Al Gore will invent the internet in North Dakota and we can get a stash of Chippers via the WWW someday...
