Yesterday...

love was such an easy game to play... Oh, excuse me. I didn't mean to break out in song. Let's see if I can try this again. Yesterday, I had my cherry popped. Not that one you dirty birds! A blogging cherry, there are many of them as beautifully described by WT in this post and in this one. Yesterday, I met my very first blogger in real life! It was a very exhilaratingly experience!

I had called her to let her know that I was getting away later than I had expected or wanted to. Oh her voice was so sweet and gentle. Me? The excitement could not be contained in my voice. I ran a mile a minute. I am sure I sounded like a giddy school girl. Thinking about how she sounded so calm, and that her voice was super sweet I wondered if I sounded crass and harsh. I suppose that would match my no shoving sunshine up anyones ass persona. I was afraid that just that 3 minute phone conversation had freaked her out and that she was wishing she had never agreed to let us come out to her home, let alone meet me.

We pulled up to her home and my oldest immediately said,"WOW! I could live here!" I second that! I am so mad at myself though. I DID remember to bring my camera, but do you think I took any pictures? NO! I had planned on taking photos of EVERYTHING. Of course I planned on getting her permission before I posted any of them. SIGH! Well I did take one photo. I will be saving that for another post. It needs to be cherished, savored, it is my lone photo.

There is actually quite a bit to tell for the 5 and half hours we spent at her house. I'm sure she will be blogging about it too. When we were leaving I told her to feel free to blog about ANYTHING she wanted to and to be absolutely honest. My feelings won't be hurt if she thinks my kids are untamed heathens. Or if I weirded her out just by me geeking out on her Kitchen. It's a good thing she didn't see my reaction to her master bathroom when her hubby gave me the upstairs tour. I'm still trying to decide if I am more envious of her kitchen or her bathroom. Oh, who am I kidding? I am envious of her entire home to include the garage and all the land!! I even told her that I want a place like this when I grow up. I am not kidding. She totally has my dream home, out in the country, on the Kansas prairie. I am sure you know by now that I am talking about Jenni from Prairie Air. I could have turned this into another contest, but for most of you it would have been a no brainier! Stay tunned, there are more stories to tell of my first ever blogger meeting. I feel sorry for Jenni. She told me she always thought the first blogger she would ever meet would be Ree. I am a F-list blogger if even that, so at least she still has "Meeting an A-list/Celeb blogger" to check off her list of blogging firsts. I just hope I didn't totally ruin it for her. ;)
