Checking in...

Hi, there!

Ju, I hope you are feeling better!

I am kind of wrapped up in the fundraising party right now. It's mainly getting donations for the raffle, writing thank you notes, mailing the tax letter, sending invitations, begging people to come! Next week will be all about shopping for food and wine and setting up. I think it will be fun; I hope people will come!

I am doing okay on fundraising; I am almost there and I think the party will finish it. Also, Mike will donate and GE will match; just waiting to see what we need.

Jill and I walked 12 miles on Sunday morning. The weather was great and I wasn't as tired as usual after a long walk. Just as hungry, though! Tennis on Monday, Tennis TWICE yesterday, and a 6 mile walk today. Planning a walk on Friday with Laurie, then another long one with Jill on Sunday, weather permitting.

Great news: we finally got the van fixed! It ran before, but the power steering sometimes worked and sometimes didn't, so it was kind of hard to drive and impossible to park. New steering pump and all is well. Good to have 2 reliable vehicles again. Plus, we want Connor to be able to drive the van to work this summer.

I guess I'll just brag about my kids for a minute. Connor's play got chosen to be performed at the Coterie Theatre next month, with professional actors and director! Kyle got nominated for student of the YEAR! Kaitlin won an award for outstanding junior student in the College of Ag! My kids are so awesome. If only I could figure out what I want to be when I grow up...

Sleep tight, ladies!
Love you-
Cheryl
