It was a dark and stormy night. Suddenly, above in the attic, she heard a _bump_, _bump_, _bump!_ ---

I might not be able to go. Due to inane amounts of work due next week and the week after, and that I might have a job orientaton on Saturday, my time is rather sparse. I’l try my hardest, and I hope to still be able to show! ---

I’m afraid preparations for a 5 year old’s “Princess” birthday party will keep me away. Gotta get the yard and house ready for gowns aplenty. Sorry to miss. ---

I’m not 100% sure I’m going to make it either. I’ve been a little under the weather this week and next week’s going to be a killer. I’m a precinct chair so I have to work the election all day Tuesday (about a 15-hour day) plus I still have to try to get a full 40 hours in at work. I hope I can still come but I’ll have to see how I’m feeling by then. I wish I was having a princess birthday though. 🙂 ---

Have it at Joe’s Crab Shack on the 6th at 4:00 p.m. Something tells me that there will be some folks there who will make it a totally memorable occasion for her!! 😃 ---
