Another week has come and gone and I can hardly believe that my reunion came and went, but it did.
When you walk into a room full of old friends and you know them right away, it makes you feel as if time has stood still and yet as you look at one another, you know it has not. At my table of 8 there were 6 women, 2 widowed, 3 divorced and 1 remarried. I am not sure of the percentage but it is probably quite high for women living alone at our age group. All of us agreed we are content with our lives and keep putting one foot in front of the other.
We all received the bio book and everyone enjoyed it, some staying up late or getting up early to read it. At breakfast Saturday morning it was agreed that it was a super idea and we thanked the person responsible and by the way, the women have a lot more to say than the men. Some goodbyes were said and others were staying for the picnic on Sunday.
The all class picnic on Sunday had an abundance of food and chatting with friends made for a feel good moment and it will be treasured by me for years to come. We even had graduates from 1942 and so our class felt rather young.
The committee wants to take a survey as to what we would like next. i.e. where, when, etc. I will choose 5 years and a 3 day cruise, although whatever is chosen I will attend and be pleased that I am a part of it.
There are rumblings that my company has accepted an offer to purchase the entertainment side in which I work, so we wait and see if it is true and if it is, will I be affected and if I am, what will be that affect? Things to ponder.
I have been invited to see up close and personal baby Otters this coming week. I remember a few years ago we were invited to see baby Penguins and you should know, I never forget being able to participate in special moments.
After I see the Otters, off I go for Dr day and bloodwork and Friday is Chemo #3 and I plan to do well, it is as it should be.
A moment in my time,
Kathryn Konrad
