Back from AR

Hey!

We are back from our Arkansas trip. I never like to post when Conrad is out of town or when we have a vacation- because it's sort of like a big red sign to the entire web community- HEY COME ROB OUR HOUSE! ... or HEY COME ON IN, CONRAD'S GONE ... COME SCARE ME GOOD!

So ... you probably didn't know we had gone. But we did- we went to NW Arkansas for Labor Day to see some friends I have up there, from my Wal-Mart days. I hadn't been in about three years and for the life of me, I don't know what made me stay away so long. Maybe because when I left Pro Pac and when the other job in Dallas turned out to be such a disaster I felt really sad to leave my marketing career behind ... never knowing I would find an entire new one. Marketing doesn't have to go away forever, but it did for awhile ... and that was too much for me to take, I guess...

But we went and enjoyed our stay- THANKS TRACY! ... and I got to see my friends that I hadn't seen in forever- LOVE YOU DARLENE! ... and it was fun. Conrad says he hasn't ever seen me so relaxed. He said when I'm up there I'm like a completely different person and he's probably right. It occured to me this weekend that although I love South Carolina with all my heart and frequently wish (especially when it's 93% humidity here) that I was still enjoying a nice Dallas fall ... I am completely in love with NW Arkansas. I have been since my first trip. If I could live anywhere, I think that would be the place ...

We ate good, slept good, played good- I took Conrad up to the University of Arkansas and got his picture in the stadium - we drove around Dickson Street and of course, saw the lake. It was a perfect weekend.

I am not staying away that long ever again! I'll be back soon Razorbacks!
