- that we got to meet Jenn from J-Online at the noon meeting yesterday! We had a full house and the topic was sponsorship. It was nice to sit there after meeting in person, as we felt we already knew her from her blog, and well, you know how it is with alcoholics, we know each others stories with out having been told. There wasn't time for lunch, but we got a rain check. I did not get a butt pinch. Also, Jenn is a cutie!

Change surrounds us. It lies within us, too. The trees in the yard have changed. They've grown taller. Their leaves die and scatter on the ground in the fall. We don't resemble our baby pictures much anymore, either. Like trees, we've grown up. As babies, we couldn't walk. But we learned to run, ride bikes, and go out alone to movies and parties. Some changes we don't notice while they're going on. The snow melts; the birds fly south; our hair grows a little every day. Other changes startle us. A best friend moves away. Perhaps a favorite grandparent dies. These changes we wish hadn't happened, and we have to remember that change is as natural as breathing. We can't keep it from happening, but we can trust that change never means to harm us. ~Today's Gift

Now I'm worried. I'm starting to look more & more like my baby pictures.
Thanks so much for the warm welcome yesterday. It was so nice to finally meet you. Next time watch your tush!
I felt right at home and like I knew you guys forever. It was really nice.
PS- thanks for calling me a cutie, you sweet little thing. So kind and you just did wonders for my ego!
Just goes to show, if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself.
Lou-or ask the right person.
Maybe Jen is still shy ya know.
You should have come to me-cuz ya know I'll grab his ass without a second thought.
Oh, sorry Scott-this is YOUR blog.
Have a great weekend my dear painter friend.
I knew Jenn was a cutie, but don't know why she isn't a 'pinchor'. Maybe she's a 'pinchee'? Hmmmmm?
Great post and love your new profile picture!
No butt pinch! That's a shame.
