WE HAD A BLAST!!!!
We went to Grandpa's 50th high school reunion this weekend. What a fun time we had!!!!
There were 114 in his class, 24 are deceased. Of the remaining 90, 51 were there. They are a great bunch of people. Most of them were together in school since grade school and they just enjoy being together. Several expressed how glad they wre that Pop finally joined up. Even though he had not seen many of them in 50 years after just a few minutes it was like they had never been apart. We exchanged e-mails and phone numbers with several. They have such fun together they do reunions every 5 years instead of 10 and when we left everyone said, "See you in 5 years." One of his classmates lives in NC and when she heard we had family there, they insisted that when we come out next year, we have to come see them.
You know me, I usually don't do well in large crowds of people that I don't know, but I found myself so at ease that it was as if I had gone to school with them too. I don't know when I have enjoyed myself so much. I even got up on the dance floor and did the twist!!! I know Jessica and Rebekah, you are glad you were not there to see that sight! But I had fun!!!!!!
Your dear father should not have danced with me on his foot, but he saw I was having such fun, he did. Today he's on pain pills big time! He is such a dear man!! I am so blessed to have him in my life!!!
Do remember him in prayer this week as surgery is scheduled on Thursday at 7:15

Getting ready to go back to school.
Hey everyone...I'm up late yet another night. I'm slightly restless thinking of all that I'm going to have to do this upcoming week. I finally got the rest of my belonging moved into my current establishment, which happens to be my friend's family's home. Just about the time I get settled, I'll get to pack up and head back to school. My roommate from last year and I got along so well that we will be sharing an on-campus apartment. I'm very excited to be able to cook!!!! I'll be moving on the 16th of this month. My new home address is:
Virginia Lane
P.O. Box 222
Nelson, NE 68961
and my new school address is:
Virginia Lane
The Village Rm. # S519B
1055 N. 16th Street
Lincoln, NE 68508-1257
I have the same cell phone number (some of you may not have this number, :) but now you do) (402) 460-7476. I'll be taking 17 credit hours this fall semester...and hopefully working two part time jobs on the side. The classes I will be taking this fall are as follows: Biology 101 w/ lab, American History to 1877, Spanish 102, Rhetoric as Argument (English course), First Aid CPR & AED, Intro to Health Professions.
