The Big Night

Tuesday June 3rd was a Big Night for me. I was recognized at the World Affairs Council of Charlotte Banquet. A Wonderful evening of beautiful dresses, handsome tuxes, delicious food, and good wine. As I was introduced, my picture was shown on 2 huge screens for the about 500 people in attendance to see and the MC shared about my upcoming trip to Vienna and Sarajevo that their $2500 helped pay for. I was one of 7 teachers chosen from 5 counties around Charlotte to receive the award. While I was walking back to my seat many people shook my hand and congratulated me. I felt beautiful, and even had a Cinderella moment. Though I didn't loose my whole shoe, as I was walking to the stage I felt this flapping, I quickly reached down and the sole of my shoe came off. Sad to say there was no Prince Charming. Thanks to my dear friend Jean Peach I can share these pictures with you.

Roommates

Two of my roommates are Thomas T. Tillerman, II or TT and MacCollum Miller, gentleman cat. Now you can meet them.
A trip to my garden. Who would have known when we planted these lilies that they would be Virginia Tech's colors. An annual little visit from angel David.

The Beginning

My new journeys began March 9, 2012 when David got his angel's wings. I also gained wings. Being a bit technologically challenged, I haven't felt a need to have a blog, but one of my newest journeys has required me to start one. So, get on board and follow me to where life takes me.
