Hmmm, trying to figure out if and when I can swing a trip to NYC this fall.  Good grief, hotels are outrageously expensive in October and November.   I'm not going to book anything until Band starts.  Last year they changed the dates of our concert and didn't announce them until our ice cream social.  That's on September 4, so I'll take another look at things then

Sometime between November 10 and 16 would be good...

Flights are outrageous now - I can't believe anyone is paying those prices but people are funny that way - they seem to enjoy being taken advantage of and pay those prices, which is why the airlines can keep charging them.  Believe me, if people said, as they have in the past, "No, I will not travel if those are the prices," then suddenly the passenger count dips quite a bit, and voila, suddenly airline prices are reasonable once again.  It's really that simple.

I'm not sure we'd be going to NYC in November if we hadn't each been awarded a United Airlines voucher for $125 as compensation for the trip from h*** home from London.

I'm not sure that will work.  I have two hearings set that week, but I'm not ruling anything out. I can usually work something out with my hearings if necessary

Today was a lazy day for me.  Sundays should always be a day of rest.

I didn't sleep much last night.  So today, I fell asleep on the couch.  I also leafed through my fashion magazine.  It makes me laugh.  They show clothes for woman in their Twentys to Fifties. 

I guess after fifty you should just throw in the towel and wear sweats and give up.  LOL

As for me never, I will always love fashion and try to look and dress my best every day!

DR Ginny, I am looking at the November dates first and will try to make it work.  There is a possibility but it depends on getting one of the two cases resolved...something I've been trying to accomplish for months

DR Cillaliz:

I noticed that you mentioned being in court.  Are you a judge or a court reporter or a lawyer?

Back from a three-mile jog.  I am sitting here and as I sit here literally every ten seconds a new spam is arriving in one of my accounts - it is so irritating (there's another) and I just want these people to suffer.
