It is with saddened heart that I type this today. West & I have been in Sherman the last 2 days packing & moving and finalizing the sale of the Casa Del West. Our earthly possessions are in the hands of total strangers....Oscar & James. Packed into a big ole North American truck and heading to Memphis. We are toodling up I-30 E and are pretty close to Texarkana. 
The last few days were exhausting to say the least. But, I did get to spend some time with my Sweet Dana on Friday, after getting my do done by the fabulous Tara at All's Hair in Love & War. It's going to be tough to replace her! I willl surely miss Melissa too....2 very sweet fun ladies!!
Dana and I had a great visit and lunch at Cellarman's. I got to have some of those fabulous beer battered french fries one last time for a while! As if lunch and girl time wasn't enough, Dana came by the Casa and helped YT with some cleaning....mucho appreciated!
West & I were both hot, sweaty, more than slightly stinky and tired by this point and since all of our earthly possessions were on that big ole truck, I got us a room at The Hampton Inn and we headed that way to clean up. Some wonderful, blessed person must have known we were hot & sweaty cause when we opened the door to room 213...we were hit by the most delightful Arctic blast!!!
We cleaned up and headed over to Sooner Ridge for an evening of friendship, laughter and grilled burgers!! Many thanks to Karen & David for allowing the Girls of 84 & their fella's to spend a wonderful evening on The Hill!! Thanks so much to my girls for being there...you all know how much YT is going to miss our gatherings! So, after a while, we said our good bye's through teary eyes and made our way to The Hampton.
And now, after a 6 am wake up call, the Durango is loaded with the last of the things we need to NOT be in storage and we're still toodlin' up I-30 E heading to our future.
Your's Truly does fully intend to make the most of every day and as always, I encourage you to do the same. And don't forget.....come & see me cause we are leaving the light on!!!
Very sad day indeed but will only make the visits in the future and the time we spend together so much sweeter! It's true, distance does make the heart grow fonder and so much more appreciative! I love you immensely my friend! Always and forever!
