Wow... it is March 2009... where does the time go?

I last wrote during a trip to Europe, at which time the US Presidential election occured. Since then I travelled back to Europe in the first part of February. I missed Nick and Joe's birthdays (Feb 2,3)... and of course the anniversary of Steve's death, Feb 4. I don't know how we are going to get past the fact that the boys birthdays will forever be a reminder of Steve's death... Time heals all things... hopefully it will help with this situation. It was probably good for me to be gone anyway... I only had one little teary eyed moment when I received a thoughtful text from one of my dear friends..

The trip was a quick one, two days in Amsterdam, (saw other parts of Amsterdam that I hadn't seen) one day in Munich and two days in Paris... Very cold weather everywhere. Snow in Amsterdam and Munich. I stayed in the Latin Qtr in Paris this time, a new perspective on an old haunt...Lots of night life, shopping, people watching. I was with three men that I have justed started to work with so I didn't know them very well. It turns they were great companions... eager to walk and try different restaurants... it was fun! You just never know...

Anyway, still love my trips to Europe. I always seem to see and do something new and different. I am a very lucky gal!
