O.K. so it was over 100 degrees today. The sun really is trying to kill us! I was hoping to be able to mow my grass, but it has been so hot- the thought of mowing makes me sick. I hate to mow. I can't express how much I hate to mow.....there are not words. These are the days I wish I had a husband. He would do the mowing and trimming and all the other outside stuff. I only like to do the flowers. Just saw the weather and for the rest of the week it is suppose to be over 100. The mow does not look good.
Mom and I went to a party for my old boss and friend, Howard. He got a promotion and he will be traveling to all the Dillard stores in the area to handle their sleepwear depts. Hooray for him! I wish they had promoted him to the grand poo ba of visual. He is an amazing decorator and visual person. The best thing is that he is out of the day to day operations of being an asm.
The party was great fun. Lots of old friends drinking and enjoying each others company. It was so good to see them all. They are all dealing with lots of changes and some seem scared at the prospects of those changes. The fear of the unknown. New boss, new schedules, new ways. It should be very interesting for them in the up coming months.
Little adoption news. Most of the people at the party knew about my plans for adoption. They all were so supportive. I mentioned to Lana I may have her come with me to Russia so that she can interpret for me. She is from the Ukraine. She said she would love to go. I warned her that we literally would be going to Siberia and she laughed and said it's o.k. they speak Russian there. Leslie, who has adopted, could not wait to tell me that adoption is the best thing in the world! I know how much she loves her son and I already knew that she felt that way, but it was so nice to hear her say it out loud and to see it in her eyes. She was so sincere in the support for me that I was very touched. Joy, always so funny, said do you know what you're having. I was happy to say I'm having a girl. Overall, just a really nice time.
