It's been such a hectic week that I haven't had much of a chance to think about the weekend. It just seemed too far away and I had many hurdles between my work week and travel.
However, now that it's Thursday, it's finally sinking in that we have a big weekend ahead. It's big in that we get to travel to Illinois and do lots of visiting with fellow bloggers and friends, Needlefingers, Pilot, Brando and Rudy. It's even bigger because I am going to get to be face-to-face with another blogger that I have yet to meet: Farm Wife. (She will be the first online friend that I have gotten to meet.)
I fear I should provide a few warnings for dear Farm Wife before we meet in the flesh:
-I look nothing like my Avatar. She's hot and I'm not.
-Cynical, well, he's a cutie, but he lives up to his name.
-I will probably be covered in cat hair. I hope you aren't allergic.
-I ask lots and lots of questions. Some mistake this for nosiness. I, on the other hand, think it's just that I am really interested.
-I take lots of photos, so wear your sunglasses.
-When I say I have OCD, I mean it. I won't be counting my steps or anything, but never mind my other habits. (Grin, grin.)
-I am obsessed with sock knitting and lately have managed to bring all conversations around to it. Just slap me whenever this happens.
-You will recognize me: I am the one with the green sock in one hand, a lint brush in the other and a purse full of notebooks.
I look forward to seeing everyone! See you soon. (Now we just have to figure out how to record this meet up for the blog world without revealing our faces online.)
Another photo from the weekend. I am such a girlie girl these days with all of the flower shots. I just can't resist. What a beautiful spring.

I am so excited about this! Not only did Brando call me yesterday, but I get to meet you this weekend!
I should let you know that my kids are attached to my hip...unless they're running around screaming and hiding from me. So I'll be the frazzled one searching for a sippy cup, kissing boo-boos and answering Larry-Boy questions.
I am about as skinny as my Avatar...maybe more so (she has curves. I look like a prepubescent boy), but she has WAY more fasion sense...and options.
I talk WAY too much...just ask Needles. We can rarely get off the phone in under an hour. And it gets worse when I'm nervous or amped up...which I'm sure I'll be.
And I'm LOUD. Don't mean to be. It's genetic. If you ever meet Bubba or my Busha you'll understand...maybe that's where my kids get it.
Can't wait to meet you!
BTW, no cat hair allergies that I know of.
Have fun!
I recommend photos of hands to publish to the rest of us blogging friends. No real revealing trademarks, but still personal. :)
Oops! Forgot to mention that I'm loving all the flower photos, they're beautiful! Great depth of field and framing.
I'm just catching up on my blog reading, and I'm so excited that you two get to actually meet! I have a feeling that the repartee will be something that only happens once in a blue moon when great wits collide! Sort of like an all girl version of When Harry Met Sally.
Wish I could be a fly on the wall!
