Back North

New York was a good, exhausting trip. My body never really did adjust to the time change, and I averaged about 4 1/2 hours of sleep each night… that’s low for me. I’m not sure if it was time difference or just nerves. I’m hoping nerves and that I’ll be able to rest soundly tonight.

My presentations went well. Participants ranged from 4 at one session to around 80 at another. I’m glad to have my first conference over, and I couldn’t help but marvel at how out of character this all seems for me. While I wouldn’t label this a comfortable experience, I believe I’m constantly stretching my skills. Yikes!

I got my matching girl present in NY. Ape, Amy, Trish, and I are starting to have very similar closets, because every time they’re together they find something we all need. So, that was my one mission for purchase this trip. They are all going to love their new pashminas. Okay, so I bought it half to be funny, but I like them. 🙂

Just a little shopping tomorrow and then up to the big city of Unalakleet. I’m trying to decide on what to pick up for Bill’s birthday dinner. He has no requests, and since Alaska has no Dairy Queens, there will not be the “traditional” ice cream cake. I’ll have to assume that will be in place Sunday for Jimbo’s b-day.

Call me and catch up! Love to you all!

    Hey!

    Glad to hear you made it back.

    Just wanted to let you know that I moved my blog. I’ll be using MSN spaces from now on–providing that I can get the photo album feature to work. I had used it last summer, but our old email address was connected to that blog, and I didn’t want to go through the hassle of changing everything. However, we got a message that our email would be discontinued, so I needed to change everything anyway.

    Here’s the link:
