    Neesie - I think it must have been your phone call that did the trick.  hehehehehe

     Wooooohooo, tomorrow is my last day at work until the 11th!  OMG, we are so excited!  DH, Steven and I are all coming.  We will be leaving tomorrow night after I get home from work.  DH will drive until we get tired and then rent a room for the night. I sure hope hotelsl are not booked.  No problem if they are because we are determined to make this a fun adventure. We are driving 1481 miles and if all goes as expected we shall be at MB's house by Friday evening.

    Vickie thanks for offering your place.  We may take you up on your offer.   I'll take your cell number just in case.  Plus,  we are taking our laptop so I can check in. 

    I better get off the computer and start packing.  I can't wait to meet you all.  Later Pinkstockers!!!

    Woohoo! Odalys is coming! If you stop at Vickie's Thursday night you will be right over the hill from where I am staying. I tried to get together with Vickie but it did not happen yet. Will see you both on Friday night for sure though.

     2 days left.

    SoCal the people from Verizon are not following me around very good up here. If I get my laptop working I will post lots of pics.

    BMD - I am still at work and haven't packed yet. There is no way I will be able to make it to Vickie's by tomorrow night.  DH keeps reminding me we have 1481 miles to go so we better not stop in every little shop along the way or we will never get there.  hehehehe,,,,he knows I just love to shop and Steven loves to explore so between the two of us we can really delay the arrival. I know half way through Steven and I will be asking "are we there yet?"  Gotta love those family road trips....priceless!

    Master Card commercial for Odalys and Family:

    Odalys and Stephen (her son) insist on stopping to see "World's Largest Frying Pan"..........Free

    Odalys and Family stop to spend night at Best Western with AAA discount...................$120.00

    Price of driving from Miami,FL to Pinkstock with gas at $3.89 per gallon and getting

    25 miles per gallon highway and 20 miles per gallon city and all the stopping so Odalys

    can use the restroom and to get more drinks so she has to stop again

    (does anyone have a calculator?)....................................................................A hell of a lot

    Finally making it to New York and getting close to the "Hill" but can't "find" the hill

    and making a bunch of cell phone calls to MaryBeth and MaryBeth finally getting

    her flare gun and sending flares up for Odalys husband to follow (because he refuses

    to stop and ask for directions because he is a man) and getting to meet her bc sisters'

    that she has been talking to for a couple of years and sharing the heartache of bc

    and tx and dx and scans and all the crap we have to put up with......................... PRICELESS

    I am posting this with a heavy heart.  I won't be attending Pinkstock due to a recent health issue that is NOT cancer related.  I am okay just unable to travel at this time.

    I know each and everyone of you will have such a wonderful time. Take lots of pictures and I'll be waiting to hear all the details.

    Have fun!

    Hugs
    Liz

    We should be to Pinkstock by 2:00 on Friday. It depends on how long it takes me to get the boys out the door in the morning. We are so ready. I can't wait to meet you all.

    Ok Pinkstockers............now it's just a matter of hours...............I believe that the Circle has gather a small amount of "bail money" just in case............everyone have a great time and don't forget about us "left behind"...............laugh, drink, eat, hug, gossip, compare scars, compare stupid things someone said to you, look at the stars, roast marshmallows, and most of all pray.........pray for all of us.............God's going to be smiling down on this union of bc sisters.............Shokk

    Hello  Friends, I was soooo excited. Thought I was going to make it to Pinkstock, but now I'm not sure. Lots of issues with kids ! Just don't know what I'm doing yet. Hopefully, I'll be able to at least stop in for a while on Saturday, just to meet everyone, but I'm not sure. I know everyone is going to have waaaay too much fun, and I don't want to miss it !!!
